"I am very happy with the job.  I had two quotes and felt that Joe from CertaPro did a more thorough job of assessing my house.  So I went with them even though it was more expensive than the other quote.  The crew removed the shutters to paint them separately and had to deal with BATS behind several shutters that no one knew about.  They pressure washed the whole house, chipped off all the peeling paint, reglazed windows that were in disrepair, painted all the gutters, trim, doors, everything.  They did a very thorough job.  The house looks great.
Rob & Jason are great guys who are proud of the work they do and the company they work for.

"I was blown away by their (Anne and her sister Gina) skills. They worked quickly, thoroughly and thoughtfully. We were thrilled with the job they did and we are hiring them to do our porch, outside. They moved the furniture and didn't get a drop of paint anywhere."

"I took advantage of the $399 special for 16 man hours of work (8 hours of 2-man work). Steve and his assistant did a very good job of removing the old (peeling and mouldy) wallpaper and spackling and painting the walls and woodwork. They were very up front about the what they would be doing and the cost. The special was just for one day and because the spackle had to dry, they had to come back a second day to do the wall and ceiling painting which cost an additional $340. Even though they did not need the full 16 hours to do the wallpaper removal and the spackling, I used part of that time to have them paint all the cabinets, woodwork around the window and bathroom door. Still, I think it was a good deal. We provided the paint (I bought Behr premium paint since it gets the best reviews on Consumer Reports). They did a clean, professional job including the cleanup and I am very happy with how everything turned out. This was a job I could have done myself, but it would have taken me much longer and these guys did a much better job than I could (this is their profession, after all), so it was worth every penny. And the bathroom looks great!"

"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.

"A long decision making process for us regarding  transitioning from carpet/wood in a large family room to wood, carpet, or laminate  in which Mr Teppo greatly assisted us.. Our choice and the final result was much  to our liking in color and material choice.  Installation by him and his crew was very professional and although the floor was installed on date scheduled, we were somewhat frustrated by his tardiness for our scheduled appointments prior to install.    His price included removal of existing floor and was better than competitors.   Overall we are very satisfied with our new floor."

"Both rooms were painted in one day and I liked Tim's work so well I hired him back to paint more rooms. His work was very professional. He cleaned everything up nicely. T. J., the owner worked with me to set up times which worked into our busy schedule. I have been very satisfied and have recommended this company to my friend."

Wallpaper Removal questions, answered by experts

To remove pre-pasted wallpaper, you’ll need to wet the wallpaper or steam it to loosen the paste on the back of the wallpaper. Spray the paper with water, then let it soak for 10 to 20 minutes. From there, you should be able to peel off the wallpaper. Then, you may need to follow up with a cleaning solution and a scraper to remove any remaining wallpaper paste on the walls.

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.

Removing wallpaper can be easy if you have a non-coated wallpaper, but most homeowners have vinyl-coated wallpaper, which is more durable but tears very easily during the removal process. This feature makes it challenging and time-consuming to remove most wallpaper. There are tools to speed up the process, like steamers, but, unfortunately, it’s easy to permanently damage your walls when using them. In most cases, it’s best to hire a professional wallpaper remover to get the job done quickly and without damaging your home.

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.

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.
