"Luis and his team came to my home and we're very professional and quiet, I kept forgetting they were there. They corrected a terrible paint job that myself and a friend did. I will definitely call him back to finish the rest of my home."

"This was a great experience. Mr. Green is prompt, courteous, neat, expert at his job, and efficient. He educated us about the details of a good painting job all along the way. He was friendly and articulate in explaining what he needed to do the work and what we could expect. We will enjoy the newly-painted rooms for years to come."

"We recently contacted JLP custom painting to remove wallpaper from our kitchen and dining area and to paint both rooms. Jeff and crew were prompt, friendly and very detail oriented. They removed the wallpaper and we decided to have the popcorn ceiling removed. So they were able to get that job done before they started the painting. They were very helpful in picking out colors. They cleaned up the areas each day before leaving. They suggested that we paint our hallway to improve the flow, so we also got that done. They were able to get a lot of work done in a reasonable time frame. Jeff and h"

"I purchased the "deal" that provided the use of two painters for a day.  Because of the prep work, all of the painting could not be finished in one day.  I then paid for a second day.  But, they were still unable to complete all of the work.  The small toilet area was not painted at all nor were the skylights.  Mike, overall, did an excellent job because he is an excellent painter.  He is also a clean painter in that he cleans up the work area and doesn't leave a big mess at the end of the job.   He has a positive, "can do" professional attitude, along with a desire to please the customer.  I was just disappointed that they were unable to complete the job in a two day time period. So, in order to get the project finished, I will now have to pay for a third day.  Maybe I'm being unreasonable, but I think two painters ought to be able to paint a bathroom and a bedroom in two days. 
I will continue to use Mike and his company for my painting needs because he is a great painter.  But, for future reference, I will get a better understanding of the length of the job and the total cost of the job before beginning.

"Mike was very professional from the first phone call. He came that evening when he said he would to give us a estimate.
We originally called for a estimate on staining our fence front and back and after talking with Mike we also asked him to pressure wash the house. He came when he said he would and did everything we asked, he even went the extra mile and stained our yard swing the same color as the fence.
We were so happy with the job he did on the fence we then asked him to stain our deck, we had tried to stain it on our own last year and had really made a mess. He had to work really hard to get the stain off but he did a great job and our deck looks so good.
It was a pleasure to work with Mike and we are very pleased with the work he did and will definitely use him again. He is prompt and does a high quality job. Our fence and deck look great and we have received compliments from friends and neighbors, we highly recommend him.

"Jason came out within a day of requesting a quote. Was very responsive to our needs in looking for a no VOC paint and obtaining a good price. He sent out a crew and was able to work around our needs with 2 kids running around the house. They got everything done in the time agreed upon. We're still waiting for them to come back to do touchups but that is a combo of their and our scheduling issues. Would definitely hire again and have already told the neighbors."

"I told them that I wanted my living room painted and I provided the paint.  The living room shares 2 walls with the living room and Mr. Jeffcoat gave me some choices as to where the color could stop or continue in another room which shares the same wall.  I had removed the smaller items and breakables from the room so I would not waste any part of the time needed for painting.  They did an excellent job with no paint spills anywhere.  They cleanup and put the window trim back  but left the light switch plates off for me to replace after the walls dried.  The walls and room look fantastic and I found darker light switch plates which I never considered replacing until the room was painted.  I was very pleased with their work and professionalism and would definitely use them again.

Wallpaper Removal questions, answered by experts

Rubbing alcohol may help dissolve stubborn wallpaper adhesive that remains after removal, but be sure to apply it carefully to prevent damaging your walls. Apply a small amount using a cotton swab or pad, then gently scrape or wipe the adhesive away.

While it is possible to paint over wallpaper, it is generally better to remove it first to guarantee a smooth, professional finish. Painting over wallpaper can save time, but it may lead to issues if not done correctly.

You can paint over existing wallpaper if it is in excellent condition: smooth, non-textured, clean, and firmly adhered to the wall. Ensure there are no bumps, tears, or peeling areas, and that all corners and seams are securely glued down. You might also consider painting over wallpaper if removing it would damage the underlying wall. Additionally, some wallpapers are specifically designed to be paintable, which can add texture to a room.

However, there are risks. If the wallpaper is textured, damaged, or peeling, these imperfections will show through the new paint. The moisture from the paint can also loosen the wallpaper's adhesive, causing it to bubble and potentially damage the wall. To mitigate these issues, clean the surface thoroughly and use an oil-based primer to help the paint adhere and prevent the old adhesive from bleeding through.

The average cost to remove wallpaper is $790. The final price tag depends on the size of the room and the complexity of the project, and can range from $200 to $2,000. Usually, removing peel-and-stick wallpaper is on the lower end of the cost scale, as it doesn't require special tools to remove.

One of the biggest downsides to peel-and-stick wallpaper is that it doesn't last as long as traditional wallpaper. Its lifespan depends on several factors, including the quality of the paper, proper wall preparation and application, and the room's conditions. As a general rule, peel-and-stick wallpaper can last for at least five years, but this can vary significantly. Budget products may only last about 3 years, while higher-quality products can stay up for 7 years or more in ideal conditions. Factors that can shorten its lifespan include high humidity (such as in a bathroom), dirty walls, and low-quality paper. If used on flooring, expect it to last only 1 to 3 years unless sealed. However, the shorter lifespan can be seen as a positive, making it a great choice for people who enjoy switching up their interiors more frequently.

Yes, many companies offer convenient options to accommodate service timing needs.
