While there was a phone discussion between installer (Scott) and Owner (Michael), it was decided to install new 3/8 inch plywood veneer over existing underlayment at no further cost to me. This, I thought was very generous as it was not specified to be done in the contract. In addition to the kitchen floor, hardwood floors were installed in a large area of living and dining room. The work exceeded our expectations and will return to Ted's when additional flooring needs are required. Thank you Michael, Scott and David (the "A team" from Ted's Flooring) for our beautiful floors!"},"url":"https://www.angi.com/companylist/us/ny/albany/ted%E2%80%99s-flooring-and-interior-design-reviews-307546.htm"},"position":8},{"@type":"ListItem","item":{"@type":"LocalBusiness","name":"Nally Restoration & Remodeling","address":{"@type":"PostalAddress","addressRegion":"NY","addressCountry":"US"},"review":{"@type":"Review","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"Philip A."},"reviewBody":"Old (16 year) roof was removed; ridge vents extended and corrected (previous contractor); ice/moisture barrier placed on entire roof surface; gable vents added both ends; new bathroom light/fan installed with extended PVC pipe to vent to exterior in gable (previous one vented into attic creating moisture issue) while roof was open; additional insulation added in attic and storage eve where needed and covered with plywood as necessary; architectural shingles installed. Vinyl siding on house and shed was pressure washed to remove mold/mildew. Jim and his crew arrived on time daily, worked the day through, coordinated removal of old materials to avoid impact on the yard, took pains to ensure the roof was secured when rain interrupted the installation. Jim took photos of his work at some stages to show us how he installed vent piping, insulation, and the ridge vents as things progressed. He was meticulous in pitching the PVC vent pipe properly to drain any condensation that occurs to the outside. He kept us informed of progress and minor issues as they arose. Clean up daily was exceptional including covering of belongings in the attic and vacuuming the attic at the end of the project. Heating cables for the roof gutters are not available right now so he will purchase and install them when winter is closer. Jim is a reliable contractor who can do almost anything. A real pleasure to work with. We are very comfortable having him and his crew in our home even if we have to leave.

The people they sent out - first of all, the owner did the initial - he came out the first time. And then the people he sent out, one man had worked for him - it was a relative and he had worked for them for three or four years. The other person that came with them had been with them five days and had no prior painting experience. As I mentioned earlier, they had to remove wallpaper; the kid didn't have a clue how to remove wallpaper. He had never even seen a wallpaper steamer before, and they turned him loose. And he gouged the walls, did a very poor job and it was not impressive at all. They seemed to be under a time constraint that the job had to be finished in a day and a half. That's probably because they may feel that they had priced it too low. They stretched it, they came originally, they were right down on Wednesday and they worked Wednesday, they worked Thursday, and the lead man - they guy who had been with him three or four years - had vacation plans for Friday. He was leaving to go to a resort in Massachussets and so they worked until one o'clock on Friday. What they did was they just slapped paint around and it was terrible. We were never asked were we satisfied or anything like that, they just couldn't get out of here fast enough. And they ran out of paint. There was one particular paint for the walls in the hallway and they ran out of it. I mean, he was doing everything he could to stretch that paint. And it was just a terrible experience. So I tried repeatedly to get a hold of the owner. In the process of trying to get a hold of the owner, he would not return my phone calls. Eventually, I sent a certified letter, he would not accept the certified letter. The certified letter was returned to me after three weeks. The United States Postal Service had tried to deliver it three times and had left notices on two occasions and no one cared. And I finally, because I sent them an email and told them that I was going to turn it over to an attorney, he finally decided to call me back. And he came out here - it's just it stank. He came out, took a look at what was done and he closed his eyes and let out a giant sigh and he brought another gallon of paint with him and he would dare - it took about five weeks to get them back here. In other words, the two men came out and I could make no contact with them on phone. And it took a certified letter. Finally, the owner did come out, all he had to do was look at the place. My sons had told me they'd get him to small claims court the day after. It was terrible. So finally, the owner showed up, he did make some good improvements, but where they had turned this guy loose to take the wallpaper off the walls - if you came out here, I can show you the gouges in the walls - it's not perfect and we had another 3500 dollars that they had quoted and I couldn't possibly let them back in here to do it. This place is disgusting. He cleaned it up, he's got it looking decent, but before I could put this house on the market, I would have to go through and do more work. And he kept telling my wife and myself, \"I can't believe that we left this like this, this is terrible.\" There's actually parts that they cannot fix."},"url":"https://www.angi.com/companylist/us/ny/clifton-park/mhomes-interior-design-and-painting-reviews-2336801.htm"},"position":10}]}

FAQs for wallpaper removal projects in Mechanicville, NY
Hiring a professional wallpaper remover is almost always worthwhile. Although the work is more expensive due to labor costs, doing it yourself is extremely time-consuming, complicated, and easy to make mistakes and wreak havoc on your walls, regardless of the tools you use. Professional wallpaper removers have the tools and experience to get old wallpaper down quickly and without damaging the walls behind it.
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.
In most cases, you cannot wallpaper over existing wallpaper. It’s possible to wallpaper over non-coated wallpaper, but vinyl-coated wallpaper is much more prevalent in homes, so you generally shouldn’t put new wallpaper over existing wallpaper. Adding a layer of wallpaper over vinyl-coated paper will lead to poor adhesion, leaving behind bubbles and imperfections in your wall. Plus, wallpapering over vinyl-coated wallpaper can lead to mold growth, which can be hazardous to your health. It’s usually best to hire a local wallpaper removal service to handle the task to avoid these issues.
The average cost to remove wallpaper is around $3 per square foot, but the total depends on the type of wallpaper, how easy it is to remove, and the size of the room. Most homeowners spend around $780per room for wallpaper removal, and prices typically fall between $200 and $2,000. Wallpaper removal is expensive because it tends to be a very time-consuming job, and it can sometimes take a full day or more for the work to complete.
The easiest way to remove wallpaper is to use a steamer. The hot steam will loosen the wallpaper paste and make peeling the wallpaper off in large sheets much easier. Unfortunately, steamers can create irreparable damage on your walls, so it’s not a good idea for DIYers to use steamers to remove wallpaper. Instead, hire a professional wallpaper remover to do the work for you. This method will not only speed up the process, but it will also ensure your walls will remain intact post-wallpapering.
