"The ladies arrived on schedule and went right to work removing old wallpaper that had been on the walls for many years. They were very friendly, very efficient, and left everything clean and neat when they were finished. Sheri also removed an intercom speaker from the wall and patched the Sheetrock for me. I would use them again if the need arises.

"Mr. Reese was very professional. He checked the house for necessary repairs before beginning the job and provided various options for repairs. He replaced soffits, caulked, repaired or replaced damaged wood, painted wrought iron, removed and replaced shutters, removed gutters and patched roof. He completed the job on time and at a reasonable price. I would definitely use him again."

"Professional, to the point service, neat and clean work and excellent followup through completion. I called to get a quote for services and the next day the owner reached out, gave me direct pricing , we agreed and the worked were out a few days later. The interior painting was done in 2 days and my walls in all rooms and bathrooms is perfectly painted. I will be rehiring D & K again for other projects I have in the works."

"I contacted several of the top rated painters on Angie's List to get quotes on painting the exterior of my home.  Greg was not only the quickest to respond, but also the most professional and quoted me the best price.  He was able to get me on the schedule for the following week and was very easy to communicate with.  Greg and his crew were punctual every morning and were very careful to clean up every day before they left.  The job took about 4 days and I'm very pleased with the finished product.  I've recommended Painting & Beyond to several of my neighbors and will definitely be using them for any future painting projects.  "

"Davin was exceptional to work with! From the big job of gutting and building a new shower to smaller tasks of putting up new ceiling fans he did everything with excellence. He is professional and easy to communicate with. I will hire him every time I need repairs or remodeling work done in the future."

Wallpaper Removal questions, answered by experts

The simple nature of peel and stick wallpaper means it should come off much more easily than traditional wallpaper that is glued to your walls. You’ll still want to work slowly and carefully to avoid tearing it, but most peel and stick wallpaper should come off without a chemical agent to loosen it.

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.

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.

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.

Because poison ivy and similar plants can cause potentially life-threatening allergic reactions depending on your sensitivity, it's best to hire a professional to remove it. Hiring a local lawn care service or other professional also increases your chances of successful eradication so that you don't have to deal with the issue again several months down the road.
