Small jobs welcome

I refinish and reface kitchen cabinets with over 12 years of experience. I keep my schedule open so I'm always available and because I work alone, my prices are very reasonable. I also add new cabinets. I can design your new kitchen cabinets with all the added features you choose, or just add the new island and pantry cabinets you're wanting and finish everything in your kitchen to match. New cabinets can be matched to existing ones with attention to the details of the new doors and drawers. Pull-outs are very popular and make base cabinets seem bigger. Replacement cabinets are available in stock and custom styles. Refacing existing cabinets with new doors and drawer fronts is very popular, and homeowners can choose the details of their new cabinets with me during our kitchen design consultation. Shaker style has been trending for a decade or more and it's what I do the most of when I reface. Refacing takes a little longer than refinishing and I do more refinishing than refacing. You can use any colors you choose. Most refinishing takes me a couple of days in the kitchen and I recommend Sherwin Williams Emerald Urethane. Kitchen cabinets are always satin sheen. I don't do anything like countertops or backsplash. I specialize in kitchen cabinets. I often have to make minor changes and repairs to the kitchen cabinets when I refinish or reface them. I can also add crown molding and other trim to the kitchen cabinets. My phone is full of pictures of kitchen cabinet projects so please give me a call and text me pictures of your kitchen cabinets. My name is Jim and my phone number is (317)531-7973

"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.

"This was a project I was dreading. They came in and completed the project in a total of 5 days. They were very conscientious and made removing wallpaper look easy. They were great and addressed any areas I was not happy with. I thought light shadows were painting imperfections and they were willing to repaint the area even after I realized it was a weird shadow. I do plan on having them back, but want to get some carpet work done first."

"The paint colors that existed were matched very close, a surprise since the shutters were very faded. They had three painters, each doing a different task to get the job done in a reasonable time. A lot of the old chalk was removed and new installed. Where the existing chalk looked good, a touch up coated was applied to insure a good seal. The shutters were painted in place on this two story house. The painters regularly asked for our comments, which were all favorable. The job took one day. At the completion of the job, we were asked to walked around the job to make sure all was completed to our satisfaction, and all was. There was complete coverage on all painted surfaces. There were no splatters or drips on brick or surrounding surfaces.

Wallpaper Removal questions, answered by experts

Think hard before deciding to German schmear your home’s exterior brickwork. If you do not like the look, you are pretty much stuck with it, as it is impossible to remove this finish the way you can remove paint. You risk damaging the underlying brick if you have to chisel and acid-wash it away. It will also take a very long time, and remnants of the mortar wash will always remain.

Removing a wallpaper border requires the same process to remove full walls of wallpaper. Clear the area, spray down the surface with your hot water and vinegar solution or store-bought spray, wait 10 to 15 minutes, then scrape it off with a putty knife. Sometimes, border wallpaper lifts easier than larger sheets, so you can just peel it right off the wall by hand.

Yes, many types of peel-and-stick wallpaper can be used in bathrooms, especially those made of vinyl or polyester. However, its success depends heavily on the level of moisture and ventilation. In bathrooms with good ventilation, such as those with fans, it can be a durable option. Peel-and-stick wallpaper may not adhere as well as traditional wallpaper in very humid conditions. For bathrooms that see a lot of moisture, like a kids' bathroom or a full bath with a steamy shower and poor ventilation, even high-quality peel-and-stick wallpaper is likely to peel over time.

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.

While many types of peel-and-stick wallpaper can be used in bathrooms, they may not adhere as well in humid environments as traditional wallpaper. For best results, choose a vinyl or polyester-based wallpaper, as these materials are more durable and water-resistant. Good ventilation is also crucial to reduce humidity from steamy showers. In bathrooms with high moisture and inadequate ventilation, even high-quality peel-and-stick wallpaper is likely to peel over time.
