"I would highly recommend this business.  We had them come and restain the deck and at first just powerwash the house.  They scheduled the work right away.  After doing the pressure washing, there were some areas with paint chips under the soffit.  Mike offered to repaint those for free.  During this, they noticed areas of the soffit that were rotten, so we had them repair those areas of the wood.  They also fixed a few screens that were damaged during the pressure washing for free.  
Everything turned out great, and we are very happy we had this work done.  Mike and Crystal are very professional and easy to work with.  I will be having them do some more work on our house in the near future.

"The painter was very friendly.  He was also efficient.   However, I don't feel that I got 4 hours of work.  He stopped painting on at least 3-4 occasions to go sit in his van and answer phone calls.   I also had to touch up areas that he missed after he left.    He probably painted for a total of 3 1/2 hours.  He didn't offer to stay any extra time for the time he was on the phone.   I would suggest that if he is going to sell 4 hour deals then he should give extra time for any time he takes away from painting.  He also left the water running on 2 different spigots after cleaning his brushes.  I had to turn these spigots off.  One of the spigots flooded by backyard and was on for probably 30-60 minutes.

He told me that he would come back within a week to do another job.  He never showed up.   When I called, he said he got busy with other jobs and it would be another 2 weeks before he could come back.  He offered to come back but I decided to find someone else.

"Gustavo and his team did an excellent job! They arrived on time, were very knowledgeable and completed the work quickly while doing nice work. I was especially impressed with how he kept me informed when he knew he was not going to make our initial meeting. I highly recommend them."

Wallpapering questions, answered by experts

The pros of wallpaper include its durability and longer lifespan than paint, as well as its versatility. The durability can translate to lower long-term costs for upkeep and replacement, and the versatility means you have more options for customizing rooms in your home. Some downsides include that it’s difficult to remove, it’s not ideal for rooms or areas exposed to high moisture content or sun exposure, and it’s tricky to install. A professional wallpaper hanger can help mitigate these issues, though, by installing it properly and in areas suitable for wallpaper.

Yes, you can apply peel-and-stick wallpaper over wood paneling, but it requires significant preparation for a good result. Peel-and-stick wallpaper has a weaker adhesive than traditional wallpaper and works best on smooth, non-textured surfaces like painted or primed drywall. Because wood paneling is often textured with grooves, any flaws in the underlying surface will likely be visible after application. To prepare the paneling, you must ensure the surface is free of cracks, holes, and protrusions by filling any indentations and sanding rough spots to create a smooth surface. An alternative is to remove the paneling and apply the wallpaper directly to the underlying drywall or plaster, provided it is in good condition.

No, you don’t need to apply paint primer to your wall before hanging paintable wallpaper. Manufacturers design paintable wallpaper so that the paint will adhere effectively, so primer isn’t necessary. Plus, even if you opt for a light shade of paint, you won’t have to worry about the shade underneath showing through because you are painting on a light, white surface.

We don’t recommend wallpapering over older paper. That’s because creating layers of glue can invite bubbling or excess moisture on the wall’s surface. You should also prime your wall before applying wallpaper and smooth the wall as much as you can, and another layer of wallpaper complicates this process.

Yes, many installation and painting services include wall preparation, such as patching holes, smoothing surfaces, sanding, and priming. It is recommended to confirm the specific preparations included with your provider.
