"Carlos was beyond fabulous! He’s reliable, works clean, is extremely accommodating and most kind. I highly recommend him not just for painting and staining, but he did an exquisite job hanging my wallpaper!"

"Danny and his team did an amazing job. It's been a few weeks, but we still look around and comment on how glad we are to have hired Danny. First, he seemed to actually care about the house when he came by to give an estimate. We could tell he cared about his job as well when he commented on colors and noticed things like the trims and ceilings. Other painters just nitpicked on whether we wanted x, y and z painted in each room. With Danny, common sense prevailed and he knew we just wanted everything painted.
He helped spackle and patch up holes and cracks that were here w/ the previous owner. He even fixed things like an uneven trim that was hanging low, and missing trim near the bottom of the floor in the master bedroom. Those things bothered me when we got the house, but I thought we'd just get them fixed "one day." Well Danny's a perfectionist. Without us even asking, he offered to fix them and did such a great job. He has such an eye for detail and helped transform this place from an old house to one that feels new and fresh.
He was also really patient as we took time to pick our paint colors. He had his guys work on other rooms when we couldn't decide on a few rooms. When we stopped by, his guys were always nice, friendly and respectful of our home. We were happy with how Danny and his crew really cared about their work.
The paint job itself is beautiful and neat. It just feels like a completely different house, and we have Danny to thank for that. One other huge positive - the cleanup job. We were around the last day and were struck by how much time they spent cleaning up the place including vacuuming. They left the house immaculate, and even stayed til midnight to do so. We worked with another contractor prior to Danny, and they left the house such a mess that I was beyond upset. But like I said, Danny's a perfectionist so he was the complete opposite. Hire him - we would again, without a doubt.

"While there was some early miscommunication on when we should meet for an estimate and a change of installation day, Gerard was thorough, efficient, left the area in excellent condition and installed the wallpaper perfectly. While it was a small job, it required some extra work, which Gerard executed perfectly. I would recommend On Call Wallpapering. Thank you, Gerard."

"Professional, did exactly what needed to be done at the price he gave at the estimate, punctual arrival time. Would definitely recommend and use him again. Mario replaced a 3 foot by 2 foot piece of sheet rock with a spackling job that the painter raved above several times on how he has not seen a spackling job like Mario did to many times, an excellent job was performed w/o ever realizing the ceiling was repaired. Over all an excellent job, truly a home advisor pro. Thanks again"

"Very Satisfied.  Arrived on time - called before arriving.  I had removed the top layer of the wallpaper initially, therefore, they only had to remove the backing of paper.  However, it had been done many years ago with wallpaper paste, which made it difficult to remove.  but they never stopped trying, and did not leave until it was finished (without a break)  I don't remember their names, but one was Pierre (both very helpful with tips on what to do and recommended a primer for the wall after job was completed. The other gentleman spackled areas of wall where needed which I don't think he had to do.  They also left remaining supplies in case I needed - which I  thought was very nice.
My only recommendation would be the use of a powerful steamer which I have heard  other contractors use instead of the little scrapper, and wallpaper removal liquid.   l believe would have made it easier to removed especially when paste has been used instead of the prepasted wall paper.
Otherwise, I was very satisfied, and would recommend.

"To begin, I wish they gave the opportunity for ratings above an A. We were placed in a bind by another contractor who bailed on a job with less than 24 hours notice. we scrambled and boy were we lucky to find iPANT and Nick. He called back promptly, discussed the job, and arranged for someone to come 14 hours later to start the job. He also adjusted the cost for us. The field supervisor and worker were prompt, he worked consistently throughout (not always seen with an hourly wage for a job) and we were quite pleased with the results. If we did not have a separate contract for the other rooms in the home we would have hired them. You cannot go wrong with hiring iPAINT

"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."

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.

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

Removing wallpaper can be easy if you have a non-coated wallpaper, but most homeowners have vinyl-coated wallpaper, which is more durable but tears very easily during the removal process. This feature makes it challenging and time-consuming to remove most wallpaper. There are tools to speed up the process, like steamers, but, unfortunately, it’s easy to permanently damage your walls when using them. In most cases, it’s best to hire a professional wallpaper remover to get the job done quickly and without damaging your home.

Limewash can be removed from brick, but the method of removal will depend on how long the limewash has been on the brick. If the limewash has fully dried—which happens after about five days—you’ll need to use a diluted muriatic acid mixture to remove it. If there are multiple coats of limewash, you may need to apply the acid mixture several times to fully remove it from the brick.

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.
