"Alfredo's crew did a great job getting our entire inside of our house painted. The lines on the ceiling look clean and walls look solid. The crew did a good job cleaning things up and being done a bit earlier than we first thought. It was a big project and they had ample enough guys working to make the deadline. I have used his service in the past and that is why we chose him again b/c of the quality."
"Of all the contractors that worked hard to remodel my kitchen, Mr. Jose Lopez of High Quality Sheetrock Repair, was my favorite. After the old counter-top and old back-splash tile was removed, Mr. Lopez removed the damaged drywall and replaced it. He carefully cut around the electrical receptacles and the plumbing supply lines to avoid leaving large gaps. He made sure that the drywall was straight so that the new counter-top will lay flush against the wall. He aligned the seams to provide a smooth surface on which to install the new tile back-splash. When told that the new tile may be glass tile, he returned with paint and painted the new drywall white to ensure consistent coloration of the translucent tile. He charged no extra fees for the painting work. The beautifully laid and finished kitchen counter-top and back-splash tile are a testament to Mr. Lopez's forethought, conscientious attitude and careful attention to detail."
"Mark Gonzalez did a wonderful job on our daughter’s house. We called him and he came out and gave us a quote. Scheduling was an issue and we chose to wait for him to be available. We are glad we did. He did what he agreed to do and then some. An example is in order. The task was to repair sheetrock in several areas throughout the house. Those areas were enumerated and discussed. During the course of the job, he saw other areas that needed repair and fixed those too. He did not make a big deal of it. He just did it. He is also an artist. For example, we were supposed to provide the paint. He requested that he be allowed to get the paint which was great for us. He took samples and went to Sherwin Williams. When he got back with the matched paint, he was not satisfied (looked good to us). He took the paint back and had it redone. To us, it looked good the first time and perfect the second time. His rates are extremely reasonable and does a superb job. Scheduling may be an issue so we suggest to allow sufficient time for him to get to your project. You will be really glad you did."
"I highly recommend JC Custom Painting. I used JC Custom Painting to paint the interior walls in my home and they did an excellent job. They were very friendly and professional throughout the entire process. The crew was prompt, friendly, and hard-working and they cleaned up nicely afterwards. I would definitely hire them again. I give them 5 stars out of 5! Thanks for a job well done Carlos!"
"Great! Finished in a timely manner. Went over any additional work that cropped up, detailing the additional costs; stayed within the budget we had set. No surprises."
"Overall, the actual painting was good. No wood needed to be replaced, so I was hoping the price would be reduced at time of payment, but it wasn't. He did, however, give the additional Angie's List discount. The responsiveness to issues by the vendor after the service was provided and paid for was extremely poor. One of the painters left a 5 gallon bucket of paint and a very large ladder in our backyard. We only recently found another small can of paint left behind by one of the painters, hidden deep within our bushes in front of the house. The painters also did not completely caulk part of the trim they painted in the front part of the house. When the company was told of these items, they promised to come pick them up. After several promises and several weeks later, they did pickup their ladder but never completed the caulking. I originally wanted the company to paint the interior of the home based on initial impressions, but after this lack of responsiveness and unprofessionalism, I decided to pay more and go with another Angie's List company. I was not disappointed in my decision.
To be fair, I must also state that the owner of this company was always very pleasant, but he did not hold his folks accountable for providing the same good service he started. "
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.
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.
While peel-and-stick wallpapers require no time to cure, the adhesives for other types of papers will take a day or two to dry and up to three weeks to fully cure. The differences are the type of paper, the type of adhesive, and the humidity and temperature in the space.
Your peel-and-stick wallpaper can fall off for multiple reasons, including high humidity levels, extreme temperature changes, poor installation, and even the wall surface. Textured walls can prevent the adhesive from fully sticking to the wall, making it more likely for the wallpaper to peel off. Low-quality wallpapers with weaker adhesives are also more likely to fall off prematurely.
Putting up new wallpaper tends to take one to two days, depending on the size of the area, whether old paper needs to be removed, and if there is any damage to walls that needs to be smoothed over or fixed.
