"I met with Albert to obtain an estimate on pressure washing and painting my deck.  Albert arrived, as schedule and provide a complete breakdown of the work to be perfromed, paint to be used (as well as a color chart of the solid stains available ).  Albert's crew arrived on time and pressure washed the deck, removing the old paint and dirt.  Due to the continuous rain we experienced in our area, the painting of the deck could not commence until two days later.  After the painting was completed, I noticed some minor unevenness in one area of the deck.  Albert responded to my concerns and had his crew returen for some minor touchups..I was very pleased with the quality of work, responsiveness to any concerns or questions I had and the professional manner in which they went about completing the job.  Overall I was very satisfied with the work performed and would not hesitate using Albert's Painting in the future.

"Bo is very professional, very polite, and just an all-around great guy. He did a great job pressure washing my aluminum sided house, fixed a sagging gutter, removed some mildew from my deck, and was wonderful to work with. Will absolutely hire again!"

"Mike and Crystal were very professional from the first phone contact through the completion of the work. They showed up on time, their work was neat and they worked very efficiently. My windows were in pretty bad shape. They really took their time and prepped them very well which showed in the finished product. When asked to redo or touch up anything it was done without question. In the end we received a very good paint job on a timely basis and at a competitive price. I have already recommended Mike's Painting to others in my neighborhood and would use him again for future painting needs.

"Rafael did a wonderful and detailed job. He repaired and painted the exterior of my 1700 sq/ft house going for sale and made it look like new. He is trustful, dependable, punctual and dedicated. I’ll hired him without doubt if I’d ever need him again."

"I have already referred them to multiple people. They are fantastic. They are super quick and very punctual. They painted and cleaned up everything in a four day period. They did 2 coats and I used different colors, so it wasn't all one color. Everytime I came in, they were doing everything they were supposed to be doing. You could not tell they had been there other than the walls had been painted when they were done. They did all the work between the hours of 9:00 am and 3:00 pm., with a crew of 3. The price included the paint. The only downfall I have is that their paint seems to lose some color when I wipe it down, but after it dries it looks like it did. But I am concerned that the paint is wiping off slowly in the areas that I used their paint. I do tell everyone they are fantastic, just buy your own paint. They will subtract the price of the paint off their quote if you get your own. They will even pick up the paint for you if you order your own and they just make it easy for you to get work done. She will also break the quotes down per room for budgeting."

"G&E did very professional work and took extra time and care to help us prep and clean up. They painted areas with very tall ceilings and the quality of their work was very good! They are good communicators, had fair pricing and were kind to our kids while they worked in our home. We're grateful for the their help in transforming the look of the inside of our home. We would highly recommend."

Wallpaper Removal FAQs, answered by experts

In most cases, it is not recommended to wallpaper over existing wallpaper, as the success depends on the type of paper already on the wall. While you might be able to cover non-coated wallpaper, you should never apply new wallpaper over a vinyl-coated one, which is more common. Doing so can lead to poor adhesion, resulting in bubbles, imperfections, and peeling. It can also trap moisture, potentially causing hazardous mold growth between the layers.

Even if the existing wallpaper is suitable, experts recommend applying only one new layer. Adding multiple layers (more than two total) can cause significant adhesion problems, leading to warping and bubbling. For the best results, the recommended approach is to remove the old wallpaper and all paste residue before hanging the new paper. If you are unsure about your wallpaper type, consider consulting a professional.

We don’t recommend wallpapering over older paper. That’s because creating layers of glue can invite bubbling or excess moisture on the wall’s surface. You should also prime your wall before applying wallpaper and smooth the wall as much as you can, and another layer of wallpaper complicates this process.

Peel-and-stick wallpaper is designed to be removed without damaging walls, making it a good choice for renters or temporary design changes. However, damage to paint or drywall can occur under certain conditions. To prevent issues, the wall surface must be properly prepared before application—it should be clean, smooth, dry, and correctly primed or painted. Applying wallpaper to a freshly painted surface can cause the paint to peel off during removal. Additionally, removing the wallpaper too quickly or aggressively can also cause damage. For best results, always follow the manufacturer's instructions for both application and removal.

Think hard before deciding to German schmear your home’s exterior brickwork. If you do not like the look, you are pretty much stuck with it, as it is impossible to remove this finish the way you can remove paint. You risk damaging the underlying brick if you have to chisel and acid-wash it away. It will also take a very long time, and remnants of the mortar wash will always remain.

Once again, contact with moisture is the culprit here, though water-resistant varieties of wallpaper are less likely to become wet and develop mold. Using a high-quality exhaust fan or dehumidifier and leaving the doors or windows cracked after bathing will keep this issue at bay.
