"Fantastic - Eugene Miller, the owner, took the job because it promised to be difficult (!). The house had not been painted in a long while; there was work needed to prepare the siding; it was the middle of fall. Most impressively, the peeling and roughened wooden garage door had to be done three times until he was satisfied. He was up-front with all estimates; provided good advice for color and design; his team worked fast and hard; he was proud of the work at the end. We will have him back. He said he doesn't do any work that he doesn't know how to do well."

"The porch had a lot of external water damage which was as evidenced by shingles falling off, as Mark removed the shingles he discovered interior damage as well. He consulted us with each discovery as the expenses grew. We were very pleased with the final product and so was the code enforcer for the town. We have since hired this company for more work."

"I called him on a Thursday and told him what I planned to do, and he told me that he had time on Friday to do the project. He gave me a price of $500. and he did the work. It cost me an extra $95 in additional parts that I need to install the water softener. I was very pleased with his work and his ability to get the job done quickly and his hard work ethic.I had a few quotes from some plumbers to install a water softener and they would supply the softener and all the necessary stuff and I was quoted $1500 to $2500. I spent $1095 and also had the electrical outlets put in. I am very happy. I will be buying a dishwasher next week and he will install it for me. I do not have a wish washer now, so he will have to run electric and water supply to the area as well as cut out a kitchen cabinet to place the machine."

Wallpaper Removal FAQs, answered by experts

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.

No, you don’t always have to remove old wallpaper before applying a new layer. However, you should pull off the existing wallpaper if it’s cracked, peeling, or in poor condition. We’d also recommend against putting wallpaper over textured or dark-colored wallpaper because the old layer may be visible through the new one. In addition, if you try to hang new wallpaper over vinyl-coated wallpaper, the adhesive might not stick properly. 

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.

To remove adhesive-backed wallpaper, you’ll need to soften the adhesive before you try peeling the wallpaper off the walls. You may wonder whether peel-and-stick wallpaper damages walls. It can depend on the removal method. Make sure to be patient and consider using a steamer, hair dryer, or adhesive remover to carefully take down adhesive-backed wallpaper.

Stubborn adhesives, multiple layers, and drywall damage can complicate removal.
