"After reading reviews about Kathy and her work, it seemed too good to be true. It isn't. I didn't bother contacting anyone else after meeting with her. Even though she is scheduled well into the future, we felt she was waiting for. In short, we couldn't be more pleased. She spent 13 days completely repainting our interior and it looks amazing. She was on time every day, easy to work with, and her work is incredibly good. We are already recommending her to family and friends, which we don't typically do. She's that good!"

JS Painting INC is Rochester's premiere painting company that provides professional interior and exterior painting services throughout Monroe County with unmatched attention to detail. I started this business up by doing various side jobs while working for a few painting companies. I realized my true and full potential from fixing co workers mistakes and pointing out various things in a job that where skipped over, poorly done or totally missed made me realize it was time to go ! I was the guy constantly fixing other peoples work . Why fix something when it was supposed to be done right and thoroughly the first time ! It was time to give homeowners real true value they truly deserve! The difference between myself and other companies is I have built my name and face strictly with honesty and integrity! You worked and still work very hard for your home so don't just hire anyone hire the company that cares about its client and there home. We never disappoint ! My prices are fair and honest ! I work by myself and occasionally have a few guys that help me when needed. The reason a small crew is better in my opinion then a larger crew is there is more concentration on being thorough and meticulous being 1-4 man crew. The other positive to a smaller crew is you don't have 10 people in or on the outside of your house ! Trust is a must always ! A company with a large crew may wow the average homeowner with getting the job done in one day but i almost guarantee the quality wont be as strong as if it were to be 2-4 guys.. May take a little longer but the quality and commitment to excellence will be worth it ! I take a lot of pride and excellence into each and every job and it is simply my passion ! I love what i do and making people happy with my finish product is worth every second of my day working for you ! My commitment to excellence is painted into every job! Give us a call and book your next project with JS Painting INC ! We are fully insured and give free estimates!

"J&S did an excellent job. The preparation work was meticulous: power washing, sanding, washing, drying and then painting - oil primer and lastly 2 top coats. The same with finishing the work - cleaning, including vacuuming around the house. The house looks like new. John was always on time, professional and pleasure to work with. I would recommend J&S without hesitation to everybody."

Warren Engineering has been specializing in building and home inspections for over 35 years. We have performed over 70,000 home and commercial inspections: far exceeding any other area inspection firm. We are the mostly highly regarded home inspection consulting firm in the Rochester NY area. Most inspectors are licensed by NYS to perform Home Inspections. So are we. But, we are also licensed professional engineers. We also have a registered Architect on staff . As P.E.s we are recognized by NYS to attest to the structural integrity of a building. Home Inspectors are not permitted to provide such an analysis. Our evaluations are also accepted by FHA and HUD. Why hire just a Home Inspector, when you can hire an Engineer or Architect to inspect your house? Our reports are detailed narrative reports that specifically describe our findings in an easily understandable manner. Digital photography is also utilized to enhance and personalize the report. Other home inspection firms will provide a more general and “boiler plate” check sheet format, usually provided by a franchise organization. Don't be fooled by excessive fluff and inflammatory language in a report. Instead, trust common sense and factual information. We work for you, and only you! Although we enjoy a great reputation with the real estate community in the Rochester area, we understand it is the home buyer that we must serve. Warren Engineering does not have any financial bond with real estate companies, including payment of advertising fees in exchange for referrals. We will never compromise the service we provide to you! We look forward to serving you! Additional DBAs - Larry H. Warren PE, Warren Larry H PE PC.

"Inspection was for a new build 1 year checkout. The inspector didn't find any major issues (which is what we want right!?), but he did find some minor issues we could have the builder resolve. Stuff like a vent that had disconnected in the ceiling cavity so they were things we would want resolved. He had feedback for care of some other items that we should be managing now to keep working well for the future so I feel the cost was worth it for not only those things he caught, but also the peace of mind that we don't have major issues missed. Inspector was punctual. Delivered a paper summary report from his walk through upon leaving and sent a digital more verbose copy through email over the weekend so we had everything pretty quick. In hindsight I would have brought them along for our early build inspections as I'm sure they would have caught some items we had to have fixed during our first year that could have been avoided. No one was perfect, but the issues seemed to be present enough in his mind that he saw what happened and had recommendations to improve beyond what the builder did for more lasting repair."

We're a full service home improvement company having provided services to over 3,000 households. We have been awarded an "A-Plus" rating for customer service by the Better Business Bureau. Our services are delivered by experienced employees of ours.

"Crew of 7 worked 7 am (dawn) to 5 pm (dusk) in early December, hard-working & smooth working team, with foreman on site + project manager that checked in daily. Foreman checked in with me regularly as work progressed. Founder of this longtime family business came at the end to review job and receive payment. Removed old roof, replaced plywood underlayment, flashing as needed. Found source of ALL the leaks, installed flashing where it had been missing to prevent future issues. Looks GREAT!. Minor issue: quality of wood trim that had to be removed & then replaced; needs carpenter skills, not a strong part of their skill set, so I will have that upgraded in the spring."

Wallpaper Removal questions, answered by experts

The average cost to remove wood paneling is $2,800, but total costs may be higher or lower depending on the size of the room, your location, and the amount of prep work required. Once the paneling is gone, you may have additional costs depending on the condition of the wall beneath.

Once again, contact with moisture is the culprit here, though water-resistant varieties of wallpaper are less likely to become wet and develop mold. Using a high-quality exhaust fan or dehumidifier and leaving the doors or windows cracked after bathing will keep this issue at bay. 

You can paint over wallpaper if it’s smooth and in good shape. But if there are bumps or tears in the wallpaper, they’ll likely show through the paint. Similarly, you should avoid painting over textured wallpaper because the ridges and patterns in the paper will be visible. In either of these situations, you should remove the wallpaper before painting.

The fastest way to remove wallpaper is usually to spray the paper with a mixture of hot water and either vinegar or dish soap, let it soak in, and then scrape off the wallpaper using a putty knife. Unfortunately, this process can easily damage your walls if you spray too much or scrape too aggressively. Your best bet is to call in a professional wallpaper remover who knows how much to wet the walls and how much pressure to apply when scraping the paper off. They might also use steamers and other tools to speed up the process.

To remove pre-pasted wallpaper, you’ll need to wet the wallpaper or steam it to loosen the paste on the back of the wallpaper. Spray the paper with water, then let it soak for 10 to 20 minutes. From there, you should be able to peel off the wallpaper. Then, you may need to follow up with a cleaning solution and a scraper to remove any remaining wallpaper paste on the walls.
