"Randy was very responsive.  He returned calls promptly and was flexible in scheduling a time.  He helped us to sort through options and worked hard to remove the leaves that were frozen to the gutters.  We plan to use him for other repairs that we need.

"They were very responsive and committed to good customer service. Communication was excellent prior to and during completion of the work. Minor things that came up like some tree trimming and pressure washing that were necessary, but unplanned they handled with no complaints. Very good experience and we will use them again."

"Julian provided a very professional contract with all the details covered.
The work started on time but finished late due to three days of weather delay.
We have used Julian's company before and were just as impressed this
time with his professionalism, attention to detail and close contact with us.
He introduced his assistant to us the first day so that we would know him
if he came alone, which he did one of the days.
He color matched paint, proposed a new product for the deck (stain and seal)
and found and fixed many things that were missed in the initial walk-around.
He threw in at no additional cost the door and trim of a backyard shed.
He left us with a small amount of each paint color and product for touch-ups.
All in all, a great experience - we plan to hire them to do the interior next.

"I was VERY disappointed, They did not clean the inside of the refrigerator or the microwave, The floors were untouched - needed mopping, vacuuming, and the stairs needed shampooing - but was not done. I had to spend 2 days cleaning these items myself, along with faucets, the oven door, outside of windows.......... it was a lot of work for someone 59 yrs old. WHAT in the world did I pay for?? I wrote to the owner and told him of my dissatisfaction - and then heard nothing. They also charged more than the other quotes. Redline - you blew it."

Wallpaper Removal questions, answered by experts

White walls are considered a classic and timeless look and will most likely always be in style. A white wall easily blends into any type of home decor style which makes it a suitable option for most homeowners. Another appealing quality about white walls is that if it's not a color someone is going for, the color is easy to paint over.

The average cost to install or hang wallpaper is around $575 per room or project, with typical prices ranging from $200 to $1,500. Costs can be higher for custom or luxury products. Since project size varies, it's often helpful to estimate labor costs per square foot, which generally fall between $1 and $7, with an average of $4 per square foot. The total cost depends on several factors, including the quality and type of wallpaper, the size and type of the room, and whether old wallpaper must be removed first. Opting for less expensive materials like peel-and-stick wallpaper or choosing to do the installation yourself can lower the overall cost. For the most accurate estimate, it is best to have a professional inspect the space and provide a quote.

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.

The pros of wallpaper include its durability and longer lifespan than paint, as well as its versatility. The durability can translate to lower long-term costs for upkeep and replacement, and the versatility means you have more options for customizing rooms in your home. Some downsides include that it’s difficult to remove, it’s not ideal for rooms or areas exposed to high moisture content or sun exposure, and it’s tricky to install. A professional wallpaper hanger can help mitigate these issues, though, by installing it properly and in areas suitable for wallpaper.

Removing a wallpaper border requires the same process to remove full walls of wallpaper. Clear the area, spray down the surface with your hot water and vinegar solution or store-bought spray, wait 10 to 15 minutes, then scrape it off with a putty knife. Sometimes, border wallpaper lifts easier than larger sheets, so you can just peel it right off the wall by hand.
