"Tim came to do the painting and it took him four days, that was his estimate.  He was prompt and left at dinner time so it was nice that it didn't interfere with our family time.  He left the area spotless I saw a little paint on the banister and he came and took care of it right away, when I called him.  He is prompt, polite and did an amazing job."

"First of all, the men are very friendly and put up with my two dogs, which is gold star from me to begin with.  More importantly, they showed up the exact time they said they would and worked to completion on the project.  Our dining room had wall paper, which they removed, touched up the plaster in the dining room, primed the walls, and painted them beautifully.  The living room is 16ft. x 23ft, with 17ft. ceilings, they painted the room and it looks amazing.  The the house was built in 1929 and they repaired the plaster in the living room prior to its painting.  Lastly, they painted the ceiling of our foyer and hallway , up the stairs and onto the 2nd floor and the crown molding.  it all looks great, and I can't say enough as far as recommending them, they are just great.  We will definitely use them again...and again...and again!

"Fantastic! They spent 4 hours total - 1 hour removing the paper and 3 hours prepping the walls so they could be painted. The walls were completely smooth and ready to be painted when they were finished. They were prompt, clean, courteous and professional."

"Zach did an excellent job regarding gutter cleaning. In addition to the gutter work, he spotted a problem with the trim around my window that I never noticed before. Even though he tried to correct the problem during the visit, it turned out to be more involved and will require additional work to fix. Zach was very patient and answered all my questions concerning this problem. I would definitely hire Zach to do any repairs around my home."

"When Mr. Springer came for the estimate, he informed us that the $999 promotional price wasn't realistic; for our frame house the price was over $3000. After getting some other estimates, we agreed to hire him. He and his helper were on time, respectful, and cleaned up after themselves. They did the entire house in one week. I think the house looks much better; my husband thinks they could have done a better job scraping the old paint. All in all, I am satisfied; however, I don't think this was a 'deal' at all. We could have had the work done by someone more local to us for a better price, although it probably would take longer."

Wallpaper Removal FAQs, answered by experts

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.

While you can remove wallpaper yourself, it is a labor-intensive process that risks damaging your walls. Common DIY methods include using a steamer to loosen the adhesive or spraying the paper with a solution of hot water and vinegar or dish soap before scraping. However, steamers can cause irreparable damage if used incorrectly, and the spray-and-scrape method can harm drywall if it gets too wet or you scrape too aggressively. For these reasons, hiring a professional is often the fastest, easiest, and safest option. A pro has the experience and specialized tools to remove wallpaper efficiently without damaging the underlying surface, which saves time and minimizes the prep work needed for your next wall treatment.

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.

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.

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.
