"Alex came prepared with paper and tape to cover the floors. He covered the furniture with plastic. His crew and him quickly prepared the rooms for painting, masking the areas. The finished the project within a day. They even repaired some areas at no cost. The painting job for the most part was good however there were some areas where you could see the prior paint. These areas were around the sill, door frames, close to the baseboard. I asked Alex to paint some of the areas which he did but seemed annoyed. There were more areas as such that I found that I will have to touch up myself. Overall they were good and reasonable."

"Stay away from HomePros General Contracting, which also does business as HomeStory Doors. I paid in full for 2 sets of closet doors in August and was told the doors would arrive in 6-8 weeks. It has been more than 10 weeks and I don’t have new closet doors. I have called dozens of times and sent several emails but haven’t received a response."

Wallpaper Removal questions, answered by experts

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.

You can paint over existing wallpaper if you select wallpaper that is designed to be paintable. This type of paper is meant to add texture to walls. Alternatively, if you have old wallpaper you’d like to cover up, you can often paint over that instead of removing it. However, it needs to be smooth, damage-free, and non-textured. Otherwise, any bumps, tears, and texture will show through the paint.

Think hard before deciding to German schmear your home’s exterior brickwork. If you do not like the look, you are pretty much stuck with it, as it is impossible to remove this finish the way you can remove paint. You risk damaging the underlying brick if you have to chisel and acid-wash it away. It will also take a very long time, and remnants of the mortar wash will always remain.

While it is possible to paint over wallpaper, it’s not always ideal. If the wallpaper is firmly adhered, has no bubbling or peeling, and isn’t textured, you can try to prime and paint over it. Use an oil-based primer to prevent the adhesive from bleeding through. However, if the paper is damaged or loose, removal is the better long-term solution.

It’s best to remove wallpaper rather than paint over it. You should only paint over wallpaper if removing it would damage the wall, the surface is relatively smooth, or there are minimal problem areas—such as slight peeling and lifted seams—that you can fix easily. Painting over wallpaper can save time, but it can create more problems if the wallpaper is in poor condition and you don’t properly prep the area for painting. Depending on the state of the wallpaper, color, and textures could show through, and moisture from the paint could loosen the adhesive, causing unsightly bubbling.
