"We had painting done in three areas - two rooms and the garage. One of the rooms needed a lot of patching first from the removal of closet supports. The garage had not been painted before so it needed a primer coat first. Rich and his assistant did a great job in all three areas. They were very careful during prep and protecting other surfaces (trim, carpet, and floor). They were very friendly, courteous, and helpful. Communication throughout the job was very good. Communication with the project manager was good. We are very happy with the appearance of all three rooms after the painting."

"Wilber and crew were fantastic! Estimate was straightforward, understandable and prompt. Crew was on-time to start the work, brought four people and knocked it out in a day. Three things really stood out: 1. They went out of their way to take exceptional care of our home while doing the work...everything from how they closed doors to how they tarped the entire home from the front door to the room in the back of the house. 2. The quality of the work - the crew was meticulous about cleaning up the walls, ensuring all outlets were removed, mirrors removed, etc. 3. Communication - Wilber was very clear as to how long it would take, exactly how much paint we needed, etc. He checked in with us midway through the day to ensure we saw the first coat and how things were progressing. I would not hesitate to use Wilber Painting again"

"Miguel and team did an awesome job. They painted the interior of my home and my screened porch. They also put screen under my porch. When they were done they cleaned up the job sight and did a final walk through to make sure I was satisfied. I would recommend them to anyone looking to have work done around their home."

"This was our first encounter with James River Painters for wallpaper removal and interior painting of our home. The customer service proved to be very outstanding, which made our first experience memorable and pleasant. As far as the charge for the service performed, we had gotten estimates from other companies and James River Painters' fee was in the middle. The overall job was beautifully done and superb customer service. We are extremely satisfied and certainly will not hesitate to contact them in the future."

"Overall I am satisfied with the work that was done in my home.
Ben Meffley the Owner of Sky home improvement came to my home and gave me a better estimate than the previous company. I decided to go to a store to pick out the flooring myself and Ben went out of his way to pick it up for me. 
He did a fantastic  job installing the floor, and tried to be considerate in cleaning up any mess left behind.
The floors look wonderful, and I couldn't be happier"

Wallpaper Removal questions, answered by experts

Stubborn adhesives, multiple layers, and drywall damage can complicate removal.

Yes, you can pay someone to strip wallpaper. Before you hang new wallpaper, you should hire a local wallpaper removal service to prep the surface properly. Wallpaper removal pros cost $0.55 to $1.50 per square foot or $500 to $700 per room. Prices vary by room size and removal technique, as some options are more labor-intensive.

If you can already see the texture of the existing wallpaper through the layer of paint, then the texture could also come through the new layer of wallpaper. If that’s the aesthetic you want, then proceed. But if you want a smoother surface, you should either strip off the existing paint and wallpaper or hang a layer of liner paper before proceeding.

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.
