"Travis Johnson of Johnson Professional Painting did an excellent job on painting the exterior of our house. He responded quickly when I requested a bid from him and, after getting two additional bids, I gave him the job. Our house is a tri-level and on the large side, with some brick but also a substantial amount of wood siding and wood shutters and doors. Travis’ bid beat the other companies I solicited for the job by a significant margin. His proposed bid, in fact, made me wonder if the quality of his work was be less than the higher bidders. That fear was allayed the first day he began the job. We requested that all areas to be painted be power-washed and that was reflected in the statement of work. Trying to dodge of a string of rain days, Travis and his crew came over the next day and power-washed not only the wood to be painted, but also all the bricks, gutters, downspouts, and even a patio fence that was stained with mildew. When we saw he had done this, we reminded him we only requested the wood to be painted be cleaned. He responded that it wasn’t much more effort to do the extra work for no additional cost. We were impressed by that approach to the job. This demonstration of Travis’ team’s commitment to customer satisfaction and pride in workmanship was evident throughout the remaining two days of work. The team patched a lot of woodpecker holes and sanded areas that needed it and did a fantastic job. Travis and his team were polite, considerate, and friendly but their work demonstrated a level of professionalism that, in my opinion and experience, is not as common as it used to be. We inspected the work in progress and before we could advise Travis of the areas we thought needed more, we found he had already inspected the job in progress and made the necessary fixes. We also noted that Travis applied two full coats of paint on all surfaces and he even applied more where he thought it was needed. The front door, for example had five coats applied and it looks great. The bottom line is that we were extremely pleased with Travis and his Johnson’s Professional Painters team and would recommend him highly to our friends and family for any house-painting job. Given the attention to detail reflected in Travis’ work on our house exterior, we have no doubt that we will employ him if we need interior painting done as well."

"Keshon and Timothy were our crew. Wow. I'm impressed. The. Best. Movers. I. Have. Ever. Used. They called me to see if they could come early. We weren't near ready. Didn't fase them. We had two dogs- standard poodle puppy and a toy poodle. They helped me put the dogs in the bathroom when they got out of the house. They were so kind, patient and sincere to my elderly Mom. They moved things out of the way quickly and efficiently and then patiently placed the dressers just where Mom wanted. Things were VERY dusty. Never a complaint. They found cash- immediately pointed out to me or my son. I asked for a large TV to go in my car- done. I would trust these guys to come not only back but to be in our home while I'm at work - something that I would rarely do. They are THAT professional. Excellent, hardworking gentlemen. Highly, extremely recommend them. (I'm very picky.)"

"Provider did outstanding work!  There were no identifiable mistakes, blemishes, sloppiness or unprofessional-appearing results.  Provider was cheerful and exceptionally attentive/responsive.  Provider made the ultimate customer (my wife!) very happy with the project.  We have worked with many contractors over the years, and Don Mock Painting was distinguished and notable for being very easy and pleasant to work with during a significant, important project for us.

"It's hard to tell how much it cost for materials and construction services because in addition to doing that bath, they partially redid another.  Basically everything cost $6900.00.  They were very personable people.  The guy that was basically in charge wouldn't let anything go, no matter how minor, if he was not satisfied with it.  We are more than satisfied with the work.  He was friendly and he was easy to work with.  Anything you wanted to do he was more than willing to go ahead with it.  The price was fantastic.  He did everything we wanted to do for less than half of what the highest estimate was.  The work is exquisite.  We live in a house where the original part was built in 1830.  He was working in the part where the bathroom was built in 1921.  He knew what he was doing.  He was able to do everything necessary to deal with all of the unexpected things that come up when you are working on an older house.  He was here usually 4 minutes before he said he would be.  We are planning on putting granite countertops in the kitchen and some other things later this year and yes we will definitely be using him.  I would recommend him and his company to anybody.  They have a wide range of knowledge.  From what I saw, he could basically take on any job and do a fantastic job.  He is really really good and I am recommending him to all my friends."

Wallpaper Removal questions, answered by experts

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.

The average cost to remove wallpaper is $790. The final price tag depends on the size of the room and the complexity of the project, and can range from $200 to $2,000. Usually, removing peel-and-stick wallpaper is on the lower end of the cost scale, as it doesn't require special tools to remove.

While it is possible to paint over wallpaper, it is generally better to remove it first to guarantee a smooth, professional finish. Painting over wallpaper can save time, but it may lead to issues if not done correctly.

You can paint over existing wallpaper if it is in excellent condition: smooth, non-textured, clean, and firmly adhered to the wall. Ensure there are no bumps, tears, or peeling areas, and that all corners and seams are securely glued down. You might also consider painting over wallpaper if removing it would damage the underlying wall. Additionally, some wallpapers are specifically designed to be paintable, which can add texture to a room.

However, there are risks. If the wallpaper is textured, damaged, or peeling, these imperfections will show through the new paint. The moisture from the paint can also loosen the wallpaper's adhesive, causing it to bubble and potentially damage the wall. To mitigate these issues, clean the surface thoroughly and use an oil-based primer to help the paint adhere and prevent the old adhesive from bleeding through.

Yes, you can pay someone to strip wallpaper. Before you hang new wallpaper, you should hire a local wallpaper removal service to prep the surface properly. Wallpaper removal pros cost $0.55 to $1.50 per square foot or $500 to $700 per room. Prices vary by room size and removal technique, as some options are more labor-intensive.

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.
