"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.

"I have both good and bad things to say about this experience.  It started well.  Danny came out to give me an estimate and I showed him the 2 bedrooms and kitchen I wanted painted, told him I was either going with blue or yellow (he said yellow would probably take 2 coats, blue might only take 1), and he gave me prices for 1 coat and for 2 coats.  He also said that his guys would move the heavy furniture so long as we moved all the breakable and small stuff and cleared the top shelves on some bookcases.  A week or so later I scheduled the job, and Danny was willing to schedule the work on a Saturday for me because I work full time during the week and wanted to be home during the job, and he did tell me that he personally wouldn't be able to be there.  I confirmed the work to be done both by email and by phone (painting 2 bedrooms and the kitchen, and we even discussed how they would probably need 2 coats of paint because I chose the yellow color.)  I also asked him by email and on the phone if he could recommend a particular paint that might cover in 1 coat instead of 2.  He said with yellow, it usually takes 2 coats, so just buy cheap paint.  I told him I would probably buy the same paint I bought last time, and I couldn't remember (I was at work and the paint was at home) but it was either Sherwin Williams or Pittsburg Paint.   He said he could get a good discount at SW but just a small one at PP.  I also asked him if this job could be completed in the one Saturday we had scheduled, and he said probably yes.  The day before the job, I got a call from Jess to say he would be coming out to do the job for Danny.  The first problem was that Jess was coming alone.  I asked him how he was going to move the furniture by himself because Danny had said the painters would move the furniture for us?  (I have a bad back and my husband is having problems with his shoulder and elbows, so this was important to me).  I also asked him if he could actually paint 3 rooms with 2 coats of paint in one day?  Jess said he thought it was 2 rooms and 1 coat of paint each.  I said no, it wasn't, and that this was probably at least a 2 man job.  I then called Danny.  This phone call went horribly, and I would have canceled the job then if I wasn't in such a jam to get the rooms painted that particular weekend.  (I had carpet people lined up the next weekend, furniture delivery the next weekend, so I really needed the paint job done right away or else it would start a domino effect of problems).  Danny was extremely defensive.  He said he'd never promised to send more than 1 guy out.  I said no, he hadn't, but he did promise that his guys would move the furniture and likely finish in one day, and I didn't see how that was possible with just 1 guy.  And I reminded him that the job was for 3 rooms, probably 2 coats each, and told him that we had discussed this on multiple occasions.  At this point, Danny told me that he didn't remember the estimate that well because he didn't think I was going to hire him when he came to give me an estimate because a couple of years ago he gave me an estimate and I went with someone else.  I can kind of see how he might have forgotten what we talked about during the estimate if he didn't think I was going to hire him, but I followed that up with an email and a phone call to discuss the job again and schedule the work, so I don't see how he got this wrong.  Danny also told me that the last time he came out to give me an estimate a couple of years ago, I told him I went with the cheaper estimate from someone else because I "didn't want his quality in my house."   He said it to me in a tone that implied I had insulted him last time.  This is ridiculous.  I've never said anything like that.  That doesn't even sound like something I'd say.  I'm sure I told him that I was going with the cheaper estimate because this is a starter home, it's not very nice, and we really just wanted the job done for the cheapest price we could find.  I thought I was being nice by contacting him to let him know I was going with another estimate instead of just leaving him hanging, and I tried to explain that in our present circumstances, we were just looking for the cheapest price, but thanks for his time.  Apparently, he was insulted that I went with someone else last time.  And I'd like to reiterate that I never said those words quoted above.  Anyway, back to the phone call with Danny, he asked me what paint I'd purchased, and I told him PP Pure Performance.  He told me that was bad paint and he never would have told me to buy that.  At this point I started getting upset because not only was the job getting messed up, not only was Danny being rude to me on the phone, but now I had apparently bought bad paint, and it wasn't cheap ($50 per gallon).  I bought it even though he told me to buy cheap paint because I figured it was good quality (apparently price doesn't necessarily mean good quality) and because it was the same paint we used on our 3rd bedroom the last time and this way all the bedrooms would match.  Anyway, I told him that I know he didn't tell me to buy it, but I had specifically called to ask what paint I should buy and he said it didn't really matter, so this was upsetting to be told that my choice was bad.  Danny then told me that I was giving him really "bad vibes" and that this just wasn't going well, and that usually he has no problems with customers (implying that this was all my fault) and that he feels like I'm trying to put this "all on him."  At this point I wanted to cancel the job, but I needed this job done the next day, so I told Danny that apparently we'd miscommunicated and that just happens sometimes.  I said I still wanted to do the job, but by the way he was talking, it seemed to me like he wanted to cancel the job.  He said no, he just doesn't understand how this was messed up so badly.  He then said that he would try to find another guy to come out and he himself would come out the first hour of work to help move furniture and tape off.  I said that would be fine.  The next day, Danny and Jess and another guy showed up.  They got to work right away.  They did a test patch to see if I needed 2 coats or just 1 in the rooms.  I needed to go get another gallon of paint and Danny called PP for me to get me his discount ($10 less).  He even asked PP if they'd give the discount on the paint I'd already bought but they said no.  At least he tried.  Danny had to leave after an hour, but that was ok as he'd told me when I scheduled the job that he couldn't come out himself on a Saturday.  The other 2 guys were there from 9am to 5pm and did a wonderful job.  They moved the furniture, they removed and replaced the blinds, they even recaulked the windows, they cleaned up when they were done, they worked solidly the whole time, and they were very pleasant.  Personally, I'd use Jess again if he takes independent contracts - he's at 512-771-8544.  I would not use Danny.  I think he just didn't pay much attention to this job, and when the details got messed up, instead of just saying their was a misunderstanding and fixing it, he blamed me.  I believe he tried to make things right, but he was so rude to me on the phone that I would not use him again."

"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!)."

"Although their work schedule was jam-packed, Sergio was able to schedule the painting withing two weeks of purchase of Angie's coupon.  He and his work partner did high-quality sheetrock repair in our garage, and painted the walls and ceiling afterwards.  The patchwork is well-concealed, and the painting is flawless.
Our front porch and entry door were fully-painted.  Even though the original Angie's coupon was for interior painting only, Sergio willingly agreed to do the exterior painting of the porch and entry door instead.  The improvement to our front entry is remarkable.  The paint was applied smoothly and evenly.
Sergio and his partner were diligent in cleanup.  NO evidence of spills or random paint drops anywhere.  After packing up, there was no further cleanup required on my part.
Excellent work, excellent price, and friendly service.  I would not hesitate to use Sergio Andrade and A&A Painting in the future.

"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

Yes, many types of peel-and-stick wallpaper can be used in bathrooms, especially those made of vinyl or polyester. However, its success depends heavily on the level of moisture and ventilation. In bathrooms with good ventilation, such as those with fans, it can be a durable option. Peel-and-stick wallpaper may not adhere as well as traditional wallpaper in very humid conditions. For bathrooms that see a lot of moisture, like a kids' bathroom or a full bath with a steamy shower and poor ventilation, even high-quality peel-and-stick wallpaper is likely to peel over time.

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.

The cost varies from $1 to $3 per square foot, depending on the type of wallpaper, the wall condition, and the labor involved.

When comparing peel-and-stick and traditional wallpaper, the better choice depends on your specific needs and space. Peel-and-stick wallpaper is more budget-friendly and easier to DIY install. On the other hand, traditional wallpaper lasts much longer and holds up better in a wider variety of spaces, including areas with moisture like kitchens and bathrooms.

While many types of peel-and-stick wallpaper can be used in bathrooms, they may not adhere as well in humid environments as traditional wallpaper. For best results, choose a vinyl or polyester-based wallpaper, as these materials are more durable and water-resistant. Good ventilation is also crucial to reduce humidity from steamy showers. In bathrooms with high moisture and inadequate ventilation, even high-quality peel-and-stick wallpaper is likely to peel over time.
