"We chose Johnson's Professional Painting because our daughter had used them and was pleased with the results.  Both Travis and his coworker Sean worked very hard--seldom took a break--and did an outstanding job making sure the paint covered well.  Also, their work on the damaged wall was nothing short of amazing--the wall looks brand new! They caulked and made small repairs as needed without being told to do so, and they were very careful painting around some muraling in the front hall.  We had done some preparation for them to come, taking down pictures, emptying the dining room hutch, and removing switch plates,  but they moved all the heavy furniture.  What perhaps impressed us the most was that they both seemed to take a lot of pride in their work and were easy young men to have working in our home.

"I paid for service including estimated amount of paint needed in advance to take advantage of a zero interest offer on my credit card. I was told at the time he had 2 houses in front of mine and would be working on mine within a few weeks. A few weeks go by and i hear nothing so i reach out to him asking for a schedule for the painting. No answers and after several attempts no response. I was ready to cancel the work but had already paid. I called my credit card agency and they suggested a send my request in writing. I then wrote angies list identifying my issue. That was helpful in that they were able to contact the painter and then he would promply call me. He finally finished the painting yesterday afternoon and was preparing to leave as i pulled in from work. I quickly surveyed the job and found two areas i was not satisfied with. He made excuses that it was due to my house something or other...bush in the way...weak wood and brushed it off. Had he offered to work on the spots to my satisfaction i would likely rate him higher but he was in a big hurry to leave. Not at all what i expected."

"We appreciate Cougar Construction fitting us into their schedule, as it is a very busy time of the year.  We had a new back door installed by a different company.  Unfortunately, the slightly taller (standard) door did not clear the soffit in our 1950's kitchen, so we could only open our door half way.  We were hoping the soffit could be modified versus having to remove it and repair the ceiling and walls.  Cougar Construction only needed to modify the soffit, and they quoted us a very fair price.  Because our house was built in 1950, every wall and soffit is built with plaster.  This made the job more difficult, but Cougar Construction gave us a result that looks great.  They also replaced the trim around our back door.  They did a great job and paid a lot of attention to detail.  We are very pleased and will definitely use them again...and we can open our door now!

Wallpaper Removal questions, answered by experts

In most cases, it is not recommended to wallpaper over existing wallpaper, as the success depends on the type of paper already on the wall. While you might be able to cover non-coated wallpaper, you should never apply new wallpaper over a vinyl-coated one, which is more common. Doing so can lead to poor adhesion, resulting in bubbles, imperfections, and peeling. It can also trap moisture, potentially causing hazardous mold growth between the layers.

Even if the existing wallpaper is suitable, experts recommend applying only one new layer. Adding multiple layers (more than two total) can cause significant adhesion problems, leading to warping and bubbling. For the best results, the recommended approach is to remove the old wallpaper and all paste residue before hanging the new paper. If you are unsure about your wallpaper type, consider consulting a professional.

It can take a professional anywhere between several hours and a full day to remove wallpaper in one room. How long wallpaper removal takes depends on the type of adhesive, the wallpaper’s age, the condition of the walls, and more.

Yes, most professionals patch and smooth walls after removal to prepare for new finishes.

Wallpaper steamers can be very helpful for removing large sections of wallpaper more easily, but they’re not always a good idea for DIYers. The drywall behind your wallpaper is meant to stay dry, and excessive moisture from improper technique with a wallpaper steamer can leave you with severe wall damage. Drywall also retains moisture, which could result in mold growth over time. It’s best to hire a professional to remove your wallpaper with a steamer to avoid wall damage and related moisture issues.

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.
