Customers say: Quick response

"We thought professionalism, efficiency, promptness, and genuine courtesy, and quality workmanship would be impossible to find anymore. We were very happy with the excellent job Eric did on our already installed kitchen cabinets. His re-finishing of the cabinets was perfect in every detail. I have another job in the wings, and I definitely will be asking for Eric’s services again. I highly recommend this professional!"

"Wallpaper removal and painting was done professionally using plastic protective material to protect house from dust and paint. Contractor was efficient and methodical in applying the Fresco base, texture and finish coats and glaze with excellent results. Also did an excellent job manufacturing and painting the custom mirror frame to match the new bronze sink fixtures and cabinet hardware.

"The painter was very professional. He taped off the trim, removed (and replaced) the wall plates, and moved and put back all the furniture - that was a big help to me.  I had bought the paint and tape, but I am sure that the company could have helped with that as well. 2 years later, the paint still looks great.

"I truly do give them five out of five stars. The estimate was quick, they have one person devoted to doing this alone, and when i needed to push up my project date with short notice they were able to accommodate. Second, on the day the job began the paint was delivered ahead of time and the manager did a walk through to verify the work that was to be completed. When the painters arrived he made sure they understood and was there at the beginning and end of every day. Most of our floors are hardwood and we have 20 foot ceilings which required scaffolding- they carefully covered the floor (double layer of protections) and put away all equipment out of the way every night. They bubble wrapped and moved all furniture and items and then put them all back. This is truly a top notch company and i was very impressed. The manager does another walk through up to a week after in case there are minor touch ups that need to be made. I have used other painting companies before and but never had one that cared/took it as serious as this one. I would hire them again in an instant."

"Highly recommend working with Damian! Had a great experience and he and his team did a fantastic job installing wallpaper for my nursery. We gave him just enough paper and he made it work beautifully and seamlessly (with very little waste to make it a work which we super appreciate!)."

"

They showed up around 9am to paint doors and baseboards on the second floor only.  By 4pm the two painters had the doors and frames painted (two coats) and said they had not even started the baseboards and nor would the baseboards be completed.  I had stated when scheduling this service that the baseboards were the number 1 priority then the doors next.  No walls were painted and I had already moved ALL the furniture, rugs, etc into the center of the bedrooms so they could get right to work. They got the painting done on the baseboards in the hallway and one of the four bedrooms.  Neither of the bathrooms were done.

On the day of the service, I was told that they usually do the doors first then baseboards second.  I said that was fine as long as everything was done today.  I want to make it clear that they were only working upstairs.  No work was done downstairs.  I'm not a painter but painting the doors upstairs should not take from 9am to 4pm.  Granted it was 12 doors total but seriously that should not take all day.  Also, the workers had their music playing and one guy was singing along quite loudly at times.  I was working from home and was distracted. 

To be fair the work they did get done looked good.  There were a few spots on the doors with drip marks but at that point I was just glad to have something done.  And a few other issues with the quality of the work but after I spoke with the owner, he brought the painters back and they fixed those issues the same night.  

I used an angies list deal and feel like they short changed me for that reason.  I was told that they usually use different equipment for painting doors but they didn't have it that day so they would have to use paint brushes.  The owner of the company had come to my house the week before the service took place to see what the project looked like so he was aware that doors were going to be painted and the condition of doors.  That same guy is the one who said they didn't have the right equipment.  If they knew that they would not be able to complete the doors and baseboards within that time frame, they should have said so.  I feel like if I had scheduled the service without the angies list deal (and paid full price), I would have gotten higher quality and more professional service.  It felt like they came out did half the work then expected me to pay full price for them to complete the remainder of the work.  If they can't afford to offer good service at that rate, they should not advertise their services for that price.

"John & Mike showed up for estimate and job on time and communicated well. The jobs were done very well and for a reasonable price that included all materials and did a nice job of clean up. We will bring them back for some more painting outside as well."

Wallpaper Removal questions, answered by experts

Peel-and-stick wallpaper is designed to be removed without damaging walls, making it a good choice for renters or temporary design changes. However, damage to paint or drywall can occur under certain conditions. To prevent issues, the wall surface must be properly prepared before application—it should be clean, smooth, dry, and correctly primed or painted. Applying wallpaper to a freshly painted surface can cause the paint to peel off during removal. Additionally, removing the wallpaper too quickly or aggressively can also cause damage. For best results, always follow the manufacturer's instructions for both application and removal.

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.

Removing a wallpaper border requires the same process to remove full walls of wallpaper. Clear the area, spray down the surface with your hot water and vinegar solution or store-bought spray, wait 10 to 15 minutes, then scrape it off with a putty knife. Sometimes, border wallpaper lifts easier than larger sheets, so you can just peel it right off the wall by hand.

One of the biggest downsides to peel-and-stick wallpaper is that it doesn't last as long as traditional wallpaper. Its lifespan depends on several factors, including the quality of the paper, proper wall preparation and application, and the room's conditions. As a general rule, peel-and-stick wallpaper can last for at least five years, but this can vary significantly. Budget products may only last about 3 years, while higher-quality products can stay up for 7 years or more in ideal conditions. Factors that can shorten its lifespan include high humidity (such as in a bathroom), dirty walls, and low-quality paper. If used on flooring, expect it to last only 1 to 3 years unless sealed. However, the shorter lifespan can be seen as a positive, making it a great choice for people who enjoy switching up their interiors more frequently.

To remove adhesive-backed wallpaper, you’ll need to soften the adhesive before you try peeling the wallpaper off the walls. You may wonder whether peel-and-stick wallpaper damages walls. It can depend on the removal method. Make sure to be patient and consider using a steamer, hair dryer, or adhesive remover to carefully take down adhesive-backed wallpaper.
