"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"

"Suddenly Color did an excellent job and got all the work done in one week's time.  Gene is great to deal with and his crew was wonderful.  After 15+ years, each room had a decent amount of repair work to be done prior to painting since we are getting the house ready to sell in the spring, and it feels like a new house now. The crew even fixed a wall that another painter had done only 6 months ago that looked awful.  Sherwin Williams paint was used and we decided on the grade of paint ahead of time with him. All I had to do was text him the colors I selected and he bought the paint at his cost, passing the savings to us.  Any leftover paint was clearly labeled as to what room it was used in (since we had both flat and eggshell in the same colors).  I also really appreciated the clean up that the guys did each day before leaving.  They always got their shop vac out and made sure things were left as neat as possible.  We will definitely call Gene again to tackle any painting we have in the future.  Thank you Suddenly Color!!!

"Matt worked hard to get the dishwasher we wanted installed in our existing kitchen. We had another business come out for a quote and they said the project wasn't possible, but Matt did it! We were absolutely thrilled with his professionalism, persistence, and obvious care in his work and will absolutely use him again for future projects."

Wallpaper Removal questions, answered by experts

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.

Professionals handle heavy lifting, proper disposal, and recycling, reducing environmental impact.

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.

Using a fabric softener solution is a popular and low-cost DIY method for removing wallpaper, but its effectiveness is limited. While it may work on some types of wallpaper, it is unlikely to be successful on vintage styles, and there is no evidence that it is more effective than other removal methods. There are also several potential downsides: the solution can leave behind a residue that may damage your walls or interfere with the adhesion of new wallpaper. Additionally, this method can create a strong, overpowering aroma that takes a long time to dissipate, making it a poor choice for homeowners sensitive to smells.

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.
