"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.

"He came back twice and tried different ways to match the existing texture. We made an agreement for him to give me back $600 so I could hire a Synthetic specialist to fix the area under the window. He worked very hard to fix the problem with no results. I finally said stop just give back some $. My desired resolution was to be refunded $600 to hire a specialist on matching synthetic stucco. He refunded me $600. He followed me to ATM machine and refunded me. His painting was fine. His knowledge of Synthetic stucco texture was poor. But we worked it out."

"I had the pleasure of working with Reyes and his team this last week. I needed the entire inside of my new house repainted, due to low quality builder grade paint put in by the builder. He came next day to give us a quote. He was courteous and supplied stellar recommendations (I spoke directly with 2 builders and a property manger who have/do work with him). He came the following week and him and his team worked diligently until the entire house was complete. I would say they went above and beyond expectations. We will be using them as needed in the future. And I would happily recommend him to any of my neighbors or friends."

"They did the work a couple of months ago and I am still waiting on some parts that I messed up on to come in. They have been 100 percent. They were professional, on time and responsive. They actually went out of their way to help me out on some mistakes that I made. They are A+ all the way around. I would absolutely use them again."

Wallpaper Removal FAQs, answered by experts

Using a fabric softener solution is a popular and low-cost DIY method for removing wallpaper, but its effectiveness is limited. While it may work on some types of wallpaper, it is unlikely to be successful on vintage styles, and there is no evidence that it is more effective than other removal methods. There are also several potential downsides: the solution can leave behind a residue that may damage your walls or interfere with the adhesion of new wallpaper. Additionally, this method can create a strong, overpowering aroma that takes a long time to dissipate, making it a poor choice for homeowners sensitive to smells.

In most cases, it is not recommended to wallpaper over existing wallpaper, as the success depends on the type of paper already on the wall. While you might be able to cover non-coated wallpaper, you should never apply new wallpaper over a vinyl-coated one, which is more common. Doing so can lead to poor adhesion, resulting in bubbles, imperfections, and peeling. It can also trap moisture, potentially causing hazardous mold growth between the layers.

Even if the existing wallpaper is suitable, experts recommend applying only one new layer. Adding multiple layers (more than two total) can cause significant adhesion problems, leading to warping and bubbling. For the best results, the recommended approach is to remove the old wallpaper and all paste residue before hanging the new paper. If you are unsure about your wallpaper type, consider consulting a professional.

Limewash can be removed from brick, but the method of removal will depend on how long the limewash has been on the brick. If the limewash has fully dried—which happens after about five days—you’ll need to use a diluted muriatic acid mixture to remove it. If there are multiple coats of limewash, you may need to apply the acid mixture several times to fully remove it from the brick.

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.

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