"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.

"Jason answered our call upon the first attempt.  This was a stark contrast to the other paint contractors we called who either have receptionists completely ignorant about the business & pricing to answer the phone OR those contractors who don't answer the phone at all.  Jason was able to ask us a few basic questions about our deck & immediately give us a rough estimate.  Since we were comparing quotes from several contractors, this was helpful in narrowing down whom we would make appointments with for a personalized quote.  Platinum Painting's quote was by far the most reasonably priced and we were extremely pleased with the end result.   Jason allowed us to choose what stain brand, type & color we wanted & still provided us the service of the 2 recommended coats for the original estimated price despite the fact that we chose a more expensive brand (Behr) because it offered the longest warranty (10 years for deck coatings).   He made completing the job very convenient for my wife & I who both work by offering to a) look at the deck for a personalized quote b) powerwash the deck days before the stain was applied & c) stain the deck with 2 coats   ALL while we weren't even at home.  Neither my schedule nor my wife's schedule were ever inconvenienced.  Platinum Painting offers Saturday hours which was a secondary factor to price that led us to hire them.  Overall we had no complaints.

"Very good work at a reasonable price. Initially I only wanted help with wallpaper removal but his estimate on painting was hard to refuse. The entire room was complete in less than two days. Santiago is an honest and hard worker. I would definitely reach out to him for my next painting project."

Wallpapering FAQs, answered by experts

Both paint and wallpaper can work in a bathroom, provided you choose high-quality products in either category. Washable vinyl wallpapers can stand up to bathroom humidity without peeling, as can semi-gloss or gloss paint finishes. However, if you’re someone who likes to redecorate often, paint may make it easier to change colors or designs more quickly. If you want full humidity protection and cleanability, tile or stone works better.

Walls should be as smooth as possible before applying peel-and-stick wallpaper. Although you technically can apply wallpaper on textured walls, the peel-and-stick variety won’t last long without a clean, smooth surface for the adhesive to stick to. If you have textured walls, consult a pro about removing the textured finish before moving forward with wallpaper.

Having dated, peeling, or otherwise damaged wallpaper can decrease the value of your property, so removing that before listing your house is nearly always a good idea; however, since wallpaper tends to be a personal style choice, potential buyers may or may not love your aesthetic as much as you do.

Love the look of wallpaper but want to consider property value as well? Stick with something that is easy to change. If you are thinking of selling soon, make sure your wallpaper hanging is on-point and looks professional with no crooked seams, evenly matched patterns, and minimal bubbling or other imperfections.

While peel-and-stick wallpapers require no time to cure, the adhesives for other types of papers will take a day or two to dry and up to three weeks to fully cure. The differences are the type of paper, the type of adhesive, and the humidity and temperature in the space. 

Wallpaper lasts an average of around 15 years, but there is some variance. The type of wallpaper matters, as vinyl wallpaper tends to last the longest—sometimes 20 years or more—while a peel-and-stick wallpaper, which is the easiest to install for DIYers, will usually only last for around five years. Exposure to high humidity, smoke, and UV rays from sunlight can also limit the lifespan of your wallpaper, as can heavy traffic in the installation area.
