"Mark and his crew at ABC Fine Home Painting were very professional and provided quality service. Mark worked with us to provide an accurate estimate. Then he power washed our outbuildings' exteriors and came back later after drying to scrape, paint, and touchup. He clipped vines growing up the side of our structures (with permission) and removed weeds to ensure a thorough and quality paint job. The double barn, stable and additional building took three weeks from start to finish and they stayed all day everyday to ensure the job was done as quickly as possible. Should weather be a concern Mark was in constant contact regarding work schedules. The entire project was explained step by step and the suggested timeline was followed. We were so happy with his work we hired him immediately following to paint our kitchen. Again, the job was done very thoroughly and professionally. Mark asks after each job is completed to inspect the work and to find anything we'd like fixed before he's willing to accept payment. We will definitely use his company again."

"It was a difficult project requiring the removal of current siding, then significant patching, sanding and carpentry to prepare the original clapboard for paint. The crew was very hard working and super creative when it came to solving problems. They showed up on time every day and finished the project according to schedule. The price was very reasonable and no surprise charges. We are very pleased with AAA and would highly recommend them."

"Went real well, clean estimates, didn't negotiate because I thought the estimates were fair. Guys did excellent job in priming and painting. Bought paint from them as well. They use Sherwin Williams."

"Excellent! I can't say enough good things about this project. We live in a 1920 Dutch Colonial, our walkway was falling apart. Miguel gave us samples to look at that would match our front Brick porch. The brickyard he sent us to allowed us to bring samples home to compare. He ordered what we wanted and within 4 days began the project. He came early in the morning and stayed well into the evening and completed the job in 2 days from demolition and removal of the old walk to the installation of the new one. He seeded the lawn that edged it. We selected him because he a patio and driveway and walkway for our nextdoor neighbors. We've lived here since 1974 and people trust the contractors we use. We highly recommend him and we always like to hire local owner operated businesses. For an additional fee he planted 2 trees in the front of the house. We are very satisfied."

"Day 1 of hiring Peter I knew I made the right decision. He was responsive and very helpful in navigating what I would need to help complete the project. He provided recommendations for vendors and worked alongside me as a partner in completing our job. He communicated well and made it easy for me to understand when problems arose. Both Peter and Bob made great suggestions while they were completing the work- I felt like I was truly a part of the design process. We love our new bathroom and have received so many compliments on the work. Not to mention my two year old daughter regularly walks into the new bathroom and says “Peter Bob did this”, points and smiles. I am looking forward to working with Peter again for future projects in my home."

"Platinum Carpentry LLC was recommended to me by a friend. Ms. Elisa met with me personally to go over the work I was having done, and let me say from start to finish the service provided and the finished project was OUTSTANDING!! I was on vacation while the work was being done and when I came home and opened my door, it was like when Dorothy (from the Wizard of Oz) saw OZ for the first time. I was over come with joy. Beautiful work. The contractors cleaned up, removed all debris and left my space like new. The work was everything I asked for and more. The work was completed in the time line I was given and the costs was reasonable for the work done. Cudos to Elisa and her team at Platinum Carpentry LLC. Thanks"

Wallpaper Removal questions, answered by experts

Removing a wallpaper border requires the same process to remove full walls of wallpaper. Clear the area, spray down the surface with your hot water and vinegar solution or store-bought spray, wait 10 to 15 minutes, then scrape it off with a putty knife. Sometimes, border wallpaper lifts easier than larger sheets, so you can just peel it right off the wall by hand.

Hiring a professional wallpaper hanger is usually a worthwhile idea because, while the application of wallpaper itself is easy, getting the finished product to look good is complicated and takes a lot of practice and patience. A professional wallpaper hanger will not only be able to hang your wallpaper seamlessly, but they will also get an even application of wallpaper paste to avoid bubbling and imperfections immediately and over time. Plus, they can provide their professional opinion on whether to remove or wallpaper over an existing layer of wallpaper.

Using a fabric softener solution is a popular and low-cost DIY method for removing wallpaper, but its effectiveness is limited. While it may work on some types of wallpaper, it is unlikely to be successful on vintage styles, and there is no evidence that it is more effective than other removal methods. There are also several potential downsides: the solution can leave behind a residue that may damage your walls or interfere with the adhesion of new wallpaper. Additionally, this method can create a strong, overpowering aroma that takes a long time to dissipate, making it a poor choice for homeowners sensitive to smells.

Wallpaper in bathrooms can last anywhere from one to 10 years, depending on what type was used, how well it was installed, and the measures in place to reduce moisture and humidity levels. Opting for a more durable variety and taking all the necessary protective measures will get you closer to that longer lifespan.

Painting over wood paneling is an option that can save you money and time. However, if you go this route, the style and texture of the wood you paint over will still be evident. Painting over paneling is an excellent way to modernize an otherwise outdated aesthetic. Instead of removing wood panels, consider painting them a bright color–like white or ivory. This is essentially wainscoting, but without any of the required installation.
