"I just bought a new home and wanted to completely re-do the paint job it currently had. I also wanted to get some advice on color choices, palettes, and making colors work well with decorations,etc. Brian recommended a color consultant who walked me through selecting, what I feel, are the perfect colors for my new home. Despite a crazy storm, Brian seemed committed to completing the job to my satisfaction. I liked the work so much, I had him do the interior of my garage as well. I'd definitely work with him and his color consultant again."

"Ken Smith and his team were professional and punctual throughout the experience, and always arrived on time. We got 3 bids from Portland area painting companies, all rated very highly on Angie's List. Ken's was the lowest, but that is not the main reason we hired him. He also provided the type of paint job we sought which included back-brushing the second coat instead of rolling and using Miller Paint. The house had last been painted 14 years ago. The paint job itself had held up pretty well, but the paint was oxidizing badly and changing color. We also had some mildew. Ken came to see our house for an estimate in mid-April. We received Ken's bid and proposed contract 3 days later by email. The price included discounts offered to Angie's List members and seniors. His service also includes a 3-year warranty, but customers have the option of adding up to 3 more years at extra cost. We opted to accept the standard warranty rather than pay for an the extra one, partly on his recommendation.  Ken came to our house in early May to go over the contract and proposed schedule.  Basically the job included pressure washing with a bleach product, masking off and covering windows, covering plants and concrete areas, scraping and sanding loose paint areas, recaulking, base coat on the siding sprayed on with second coat brushed on, trim brushed on, large doors sprayed. Shutters were removed, sprayed and replaced. We asked for a few things to be specified further in an attached addendum which Ken readily agreed to accept. We gave Ken a 25% deposit the day we signed the contract and stayed in touch by email. He called the day before when it was time to start the actual work. Chad power-washed the housed on 6/6. The painting was tentatively scheduled to begin the following week, but it rained every day.  As soon as the weather cleared, Ken called to say that his team could start mid-morning the next day (6/18). Workers began arriving around 10:45. There were 7 of them the first day, 5 the next. Ken also came part of the time. They began working immediately and steadily under the lead of Scott. It was obvious that each member of the team knew what to do as they all set about specific tasks. By 4 p.m. the front and south side of the house had been sprayed while other areas were scraped and prepped. Five workers began arriving the next morning shortly after 7:00 a.m. Workers finished spraying the rest of the house while others caulked, painted the trim, shutters and doors, etc.  The entire project was completed at 3:30 the second day. We walked around with Ken and noticed a few minor things which were fixed immediately. After they left, I could find very little evidence they'd been here - only a few very small pieces of tape and flaked off paint that had blown under shrubs. And the house looks great - in just 13.5 hours of work.

"Fabulous. These fellows were thorough and clean, and I am continuing to admire the quality over a year later, as it still looks just newly caulked and painted. I think they did above and beyond my expectations. Highly recommend them. I had to tear out my deck this year, and it is clear that the paint crew went under the old deck, in hard to reach places, and completely painted the siding that no one would've seen. However, now that the deck is off the house, and won't be the same footprint as before, it's even more important that I won't have much repainting to do-- only where the old ledger and siding were removed by deck demolition. I'd hire them again in a minute."

"Juan and his team of journeyman drywaller‘s did an amazing job of matching the existing texture on my walls and ceiling! He was here when he said he would be and finished the job two days early. I have been in the construction business for over 30 years I can’t say enough about how much this young man impressed me with his professionalism add knowledge of the trades. Thanks again Juan!"

"Nicholaus was great! So professional, punctual, always kept me in the loop while I was at work. It started with him just painting the fascia, but he noticed that my window frames needed peeled and repainted as well. He asked if I wanted that done too and I said absolutely! He went around my house and took off all the storm windows, peeled and sanded, and repainted them. He went to above and beyond what I had expected. He even power washed my entire house and washed my windows for no extra charge, removed my gutters and washed and replaced them better than they were before. It was about a 4 day job. I would most definitely recommend Nick to anyone and will hire him again. Very good guy. Thanks Nick!"

"Peak Pro Painters were great from start to finish. Dan was amazing about getting us scheduled when it was convenient for us and completing the project in a timely and professional manner, going above and beyond for our needs. We have vaulted ceilings and a lot of intricate and odd areas which they painted with ease. Overall, very impressed, they will be my first call if I have anymore painting projects!"

Wallpaper Removal questions, answered by experts

Professionals handle heavy lifting, proper disposal, and recycling, reducing environmental impact.

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.

Accent walls can feel out of place or distracting if not well designed. Accent walls that don’t fit in with a room’s style can feel jarring or overpowering. Some accent wall styles can also feel dated, but fortunately, it’s easier to update a single wall than an entire room.

Wallpaper in bathrooms can last anywhere from one to 10 years, depending on what type was used, how well it was installed, and the measures in place to reduce moisture and humidity levels. Opting for a more durable variety and taking all the necessary protective measures will get you closer to that longer lifespan.

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.
