"I was looking to have a window screen replaced. Dave answered the initial email through Home Advisor by calling me immediately. He then came to give me an estimate within 24 hours. The price was very reasonable, work was completed within 2 days, and quality was excellent. Dave was easy to get hold of by phone and he came when he promised he would. I will definitely use him for other home repairs in the future. Highly recommended."

"I had a vague idea of what I wanted for our accent walls but couldn't commit. The consultant from Desirable Painting was incredibly helpful, bringing out samples and explaining how the lighting throughout the day would affect the colors. The painters themselves were true craftsmen. The lines against the ceiling are razor-sharp."

"The work consisted of repairing a stress crack running down the length of my living room ceiling and repainting a bedroom which included removing a wallpaper border at the ceiling. The living room ceiling is textured which required fixing the crack, re-texturing the entire ceiling and repainting. John Garrity explained my options and him and his crew did exceptional work. They were punctual, kept me updated along the way and cleaned up everything when done. In addition, a last minute job was hanging a ceiling fan in the painted bedroom which was not part of the initial work. I would definitely hire them again."

"Super ! Can't say enough about this highly qualified professional company.  They painted at least 6 rooms removing wallpaper at no extra charge. Prices were fantastic and they were absolutely trustworthy with a work ethic rarely seen these days. They sent us pictures every step of the way , as we were out of town. Mike identified areas of concern and kept us aware of work done.  He was a dynamo and work was completed faster than we expected! Apex has qualified colleagues as well that share the high caliber work ethic demonstrated by Mike. I have already told others about Apex their great work and ability and best price around. Thank you very much Mike and Apex. We are Satisfied customers.

Sincerely,
Charlie and Gayle Vasulka"

"Jaime showed up, examined what needed to be done and understood the problem right away.  We discussed the options and then he was ready to go with no need for supervision.  He did an EXCELLENT job.  I had various drywall issues from an old house including wall separation from the ceiling, large ceiling cracks and lifting up of existing drywall.  Plus some caulking needs in one room without disrupting the wallpaper.  Jaime did everything on time and on budget.  Great to work with.  I recommend him highly!

"The deck had a terrible mildew problem, uneven floor boards and nails popping up.  It looked very dilapidated, as if it needed to be replaced.  They removed everything off of the deck  for us, including the grill and tiki torches and replaced them upon completion of the job.The entire deck, steps and even the lattice was METICULOUSLY power washed on one of the hottest days of the summer.  Then there was too much rain and we had to wait for the deck to dry out before it was sanded and the stain was applied.  You get to choose from a host of colors.  The service was timely and the crew were exceptionally nice people.  I really was not expecting this type of result on that old deck.  People are now asking is it a new deck!  I will definitely use them again in the future.

Wallpaper Removal FAQs, answered by experts

Rubbing alcohol may help dissolve stubborn wallpaper adhesive that remains after removal, but be sure to apply it carefully to prevent damaging your walls. Apply a small amount using a cotton swab or pad, then gently scrape or wipe the adhesive away.

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.

Most jobs take 1-3 days, depending on room size and adhesive strength.

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.

Using a fabric softener solution is a popular and low-cost DIY method for removing wallpaper, but its effectiveness is limited. While it may work on some types of wallpaper, it is unlikely to be successful on vintage styles, and there is no evidence that it is more effective than other removal methods. There are also several potential downsides: the solution can leave behind a residue that may damage your walls or interfere with the adhesion of new wallpaper. Additionally, this method can create a strong, overpowering aroma that takes a long time to dissipate, making it a poor choice for homeowners sensitive to smells.
