"I own an older fixer upper and have many contractors complete work at my house over the last 10 years. David and his crew was the most profession, prompt on time start/finish, and cleaned up everything. It was nice not needing to clean up mess afterwards. He laid tarps down for the walk way, no mess left behind. The work was A+++ quality."
"I have hired Miguel and his son several times. They are very professional, punctual and clean in there job. If you want and excellent job, these are your guys! And the price is reasonable."
"Dennis arrived promptly, put down tarps, moved furniture and started painting. He finished sooner than expected. The room LOOKS GREAT!! This is the second time I have used him and would most difinatley use again!! "
"This handyman did a great job, he was very cautious with his mess and made sure that he was not dirty. They were very courtesy, nice, and professional. Every time they left for lunch or left the house they would let me know. They swept up all of their messes and didn't leave a mess and the end quality work was great."
"We needed to repair a large crack in our wall that continued onto the ceiling due to settling in the house. And we needed to do it quickly in order to get our house ready to sell. Plano/Richardson Home Improvement was able to fit us in their schedule immediately and complete the work in three days. They did a great job, and even touched up a few doorframe cracks in the room also! But what really surprised me is that I asked him about some patching up that needed to be done around a bathroom light, and that maybe we could have him back later to repair it. A few days after the work was all done, I noticed that he had patched up that light too and surprised me! Wow! I am so impressed with Plano/Richardson Home Improvement!
Many types of wallpaper exist, from removable peel-and-stick options to more permanent options that involve pasting. You can also find wallpaper that you can paint over, wallpaper with a texture, and wallpaper made from various materials, such as vinyl. Some types of wallpaper are washable, which can be a great option for kitchens or if your household has small children.
Once again, contact with moisture is the culprit here, though water-resistant varieties of wallpaper are less likely to become wet and develop mold. Using a high-quality exhaust fan or dehumidifier and leaving the doors or windows cracked after bathing will keep this issue at bay.
Spring and fall are the best seasons to apply wallpaper because excessively hot or cold temperatures can cause issues with the paste used to attach the paper to the wall. A professional wallpaper hanger can help you decide if your home is too hot, cold, humid, or dry for the wallpaper to stick properly.
No, you don’t always have to remove old wallpaper before applying a new layer. However, you should pull off the existing wallpaper if it’s cracked, peeling, or in poor condition. We’d also recommend against putting wallpaper over textured or dark-colored wallpaper because the old layer may be visible through the new one. In addition, if you try to hang new wallpaper over vinyl-coated wallpaper, the adhesive might not stick properly.
Hiring a professional wallpaper hanger is usually a worthwhile idea because, while the application of wallpaper itself is easy, getting the finished product to look good is complicated and takes a lot of practice and patience. A professional wallpaper hanger will not only be able to hang your wallpaper seamlessly, but they will also get an even application of wallpaper paste to avoid bubbling and imperfections immediately and over time. Plus, they can provide their professional opinion on whether to remove or wallpaper over an existing layer of wallpaper.
