"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."

"Fidel and his crew were prompt, responsive, thoughtful, professional, and kind. Their work was thorough and careful from washing to prepping the surfaces to painting. They were careful with our bushes and shrubs around the front and sides of the house and the back garden. They were meticulous with the pieces they needed to remove and re-attach, e.g. house numbers, shutters, gutters, etc. They got the job done in exactly the period of time estimated. We were very pleased with this complex job!"

"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.

"Contractor and his crew did a very good job. There were only a couple of minor issues -they did not leave the gallon of paint that I had paid for and they did not replace the outlet/light switch covers as promised. There was a misunderstanding about the scheduling of the cleaning crew, but it was cleared up."

"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.

Wallpaper Removal questions, answered by experts

The cost varies from $1 to $3 per square foot, depending on the type of wallpaper, the wall condition, and the labor involved.

While you can remove wallpaper yourself, it is a labor-intensive process that risks damaging your walls. Common DIY methods include using a steamer to loosen the adhesive or spraying the paper with a solution of hot water and vinegar or dish soap before scraping. However, steamers can cause irreparable damage if used incorrectly, and the spray-and-scrape method can harm drywall if it gets too wet or you scrape too aggressively. For these reasons, hiring a professional is often the fastest, easiest, and safest option. A pro has the experience and specialized tools to remove wallpaper efficiently without damaging the underlying surface, which saves time and minimizes the prep work needed for your next wall treatment.

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.

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.

Yes, you can pay someone to strip wallpaper. Before you hang new wallpaper, you should hire a local wallpaper removal service to prep the surface properly. Wallpaper removal pros cost $0.55 to $1.50 per square foot or $500 to $700 per room. Prices vary by room size and removal technique, as some options are more labor-intensive.
