"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."

"The one time we had four people out. Its sort of been- its a mixture of people because they've got different things to do and they do them. But its about four people. They were very personable. They were they listened to the things that I wanted to have done and didn't try to talk me into something else. They were quick to get the work done, they cleaned up after themselves and they did great work."

"I needed help with cleaning and organizing after a long distance move. We are still in the process of turning my overly full house into a home, but they work diligently and professionally. Highly recommend their service. The first day they came with a team of four, helped bag things that were not being used, removed old monitors and TV's that were no longer useful, etc. They thoroughly dusted, cleaned under furniture, cleaned bathrooms, etc. They have even helped with some minor repairs. The job is not complete as yet, but once it is, I will have them come every other week or so to keep it clean. With their help, my house will once again become a very pleasant and beautiful home!"

"I had to call multiple times for scheduling my initial consultation. Justin gave me a quote for $550 for tree pruning in the front and backyard. The Angie's List coupon covered me for first $200 and I was to come with $350 more. I felt the quote was high with only one person working for 4-5 hours in terms of cutting, cleaning and hauling small branches. I manage to get quotes from other tree services as well and the cost was almost the same with crew size of four people working for half day which to me is more efficient with larger scope than outlined by Advanced Specialty Construction."

Wallpaper Removal FAQs, answered by experts

While it is possible to paint over wallpaper, it is generally better to remove it first to guarantee a smooth, professional finish. Painting over wallpaper can save time, but it may lead to issues if not done correctly.

You can paint over existing wallpaper if it is in excellent condition: smooth, non-textured, clean, and firmly adhered to the wall. Ensure there are no bumps, tears, or peeling areas, and that all corners and seams are securely glued down. You might also consider painting over wallpaper if removing it would damage the underlying wall. Additionally, some wallpapers are specifically designed to be paintable, which can add texture to a room.

However, there are risks. If the wallpaper is textured, damaged, or peeling, these imperfections will show through the new paint. The moisture from the paint can also loosen the wallpaper's adhesive, causing it to bubble and potentially damage the wall. To mitigate these issues, clean the surface thoroughly and use an oil-based primer to help the paint adhere and prevent the old adhesive from bleeding through.

Hiring a professional wallpaper remover is almost always worthwhile. Although the work is more expensive due to labor costs, doing it yourself is extremely time-consuming, complicated, and easy to make mistakes and wreak havoc on your walls, regardless of the tools you use. Professional wallpaper removers have the tools and experience to get old wallpaper down quickly and without damaging the walls behind it.

The simple nature of peel and stick wallpaper means it should come off much more easily than traditional wallpaper that is glued to your walls. You’ll still want to work slowly and carefully to avoid tearing it, but most peel and stick wallpaper should come off without a chemical agent to loosen it.

While you can remove wallpaper yourself, it is a labor-intensive process that risks damaging your walls. Common DIY methods include using a steamer to loosen the adhesive or spraying the paper with a solution of hot water and vinegar or dish soap before scraping. However, steamers can cause irreparable damage if used incorrectly, and the spray-and-scrape method can harm drywall if it gets too wet or you scrape too aggressively. For these reasons, hiring a professional is often the fastest, easiest, and safest option. A pro has the experience and specialized tools to remove wallpaper efficiently without damaging the underlying surface, which saves time and minimizes the prep work needed for your next wall treatment.

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