"Very well done. There were some hard to remove stains on the old deck and several boards needed replaced. All were replaced and deck stains removed. The new stain was a new color and I had no places where I saw the old stain color at all. I would recommend this service again and I plan to have them do this again in three years. Very easy to work with also. No trash or paint items left behind. very professional workers."

"I initially hired this company through an Angie's list special for $395 for a day's worth of painting, and then added on two more days at their "regular price" because it was a big job. I wished I was not paying by the day, but instead by the job, since some of the workers did a lot of standing around smoking and talking. (i am still finding cigarette butts.) Others worked very hard, so it was a very mixed bag of how hard and how steady they worked. It was quite hot, so breaks for water etc were expected.
When the job was "done" there were many bare spots. I know a lattice is difficult, and this is where most of the bare spots were, but there were other bare spots as well. Ben Kiss was very willing to send someone to "touch up" and this person did a fairly good job. He was not perfect, however. He got paint all over the latch for the gate and did not think to lift the latch and paint under that part. Plus there were still quite a few bare spots, which ultimately my husband had to finish.
The price didn't turn out to be that cheap, but I believe it was fair since the total of the special and the extra days still was  less than another estimate we got for the job.

Wallpaper Removal FAQs, answered by experts

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

You’ll need to wash the walls to remove wallpaper adhesive residue after removal as part of the prep process for painting or rehanging wallpaper. Old adhesive can cause texture issues and prevent paint or wallpaper from adhering properly to the wall’s surface.

Wallpaper lasts an average of around 15 years, but there is some variance. The type of wallpaper matters, as vinyl wallpaper tends to last the longest—sometimes 20 years or more—while a peel-and-stick wallpaper, which is the easiest to install for DIYers, will usually only last for around five years. Exposure to high humidity, smoke, and UV rays from sunlight can also limit the lifespan of your wallpaper, as can heavy traffic in the installation area.

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.

White walls are considered a classic and timeless look and will most likely always be in style. A white wall easily blends into any type of home decor style which makes it a suitable option for most homeowners. Another appealing quality about white walls is that if it's not a color someone is going for, the color is easy to paint over.
