"Absolutely PERFECT job and experience! We are thrilled with our stamped concrete overlay, our edged stone pathway and posts for shade sail. Cisneros Construction was chosen by us from 2 competitor bidders because of their professionalism and integrity. They were hired by us to correct another contractors shoddy work and had some hurdles to ovetcome. They explained in detail how the corrections needed to be handled and how they would proceed. They showed us the "stamps" for the concrete and gave us a great visual. They set our expectations and exceded them. It was so refreshing to work with a company that does what they say the'll do. We're enjoying our patio and definitely recommend Cisneros Construction if you're looking for an honest, capable, talented and professional contractor. To be clear, before this job we had never met Ivan Cisneros before but we're so grateful we reached out for a bid and if we're fortunate enough in the future we'll be reaching out for him first."

"These guys did a fantastic job. They arrived on time, communicated with me as to what they were doing and finished when they said they would. The ceiling in my home has a rough transition to the wall, but they were able to make the paint line perfectly crisp and straight. My wife was very happy about that I would definitely recommend."

Wallpaper Removal questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

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.

Painting over wood paneling is an option that can save you money and time. However, if you go this route, the style and texture of the wood you paint over will still be evident. Painting over paneling is an excellent way to modernize an otherwise outdated aesthetic. Instead of removing wood panels, consider painting them a bright color–like white or ivory. This is essentially wainscoting, but without any of the required installation. 

Because poison ivy and similar plants can cause potentially life-threatening allergic reactions depending on your sensitivity, it's best to hire a professional to remove it. Hiring a local lawn care service or other professional also increases your chances of successful eradication so that you don't have to deal with the issue again several months down the road.
