"The team did a fantastic job. They prepped the exposed and damaged areas thoroughly and it looks great now. They were very diligent in their process of getting into every crevice, with a hand painted coat, followed by rolling a second coat. I can tell it will last a long time. Great work. I appreciated their communication before and during the job."

"Was able to come out and quote within a couple of days & able to complete work based on my needed timeline. Very professional, and Sean was the sole painter which I appreciated the person I met doing the work. No paint on trim or new flooring, very precise. Will hire again and recommend to friends and family. Thank you! - Nick & Jen"

"It worked out pretty good. They got here when they were supposed to and did a pretty good job on it. They didn?t do the wallpaper removal that I had hoped they would, kind of ran out of time on that. The drywall repair that they did was good. I may have asked them to do a little bit more and paid them more, but I would say they stayed with their price.?They were friendly and courteous."

"Because houseguests were coming on short notice, we needed to redo a bathroom that was in terrible shape. It didn't just need to be painted - the wall surfaces were a mess, with a poorly done sandcoat finish and problems due to previously removed wallpaper and border. Also, because of somewhat odd colored tile and grout in the tub/shower, we despaired of finding a wall color that would look good with the tile, but yet harmonize with the colors in the rest of the house. Shena at Red Canary was just terrific - she came out right away, squeezed us into her schedule in time to be done before our guests arrived, and she came up with a great color choice we just love! The walls were repaired and skim coated to correct the flaws before painting - they look perfect - you'd never know the state they'd been in before! Everyone we dealt with was very friendly and professional, and went out of their way to help us with other aspects of the renovation project. Shena has very high standards for work quality, and she wasn't ready to sign off on the job as finished until everything was perfect. We were so happy to have learned of Red Canary and Shena through Angie's List - she was a delight to work with, and we're thrilled with the outcome. We will be using Red Canary on another painting job coming up soon, and can wholeheartedly recommend this company to anyone needing painting services!"

"So happy to have hired CertaPro. Took 3 bids and the bid from Certapro was HALF the other bids. Budget being a concern we contracted with CertaPro and am so impressed. They did the work on the dates schedule in advance, they called when they would show up early and most importantly, when the job was complete the bill was EXACTLY what was on the bid! I am so impressed by the professionalism of the whole team. Great Customer Service with timely updates and concerned about any questions I had during the job. You owe it to yourself to at least get a bid from CeraPro. Iâ  m happy I did."

Wallpaper Removal questions, answered by experts

Hiring a professional wallpaper hanger is usually a worthwhile idea because, while the application of wallpaper itself is easy, getting the finished product to look good is complicated and takes a lot of practice and patience. A professional wallpaper hanger will not only be able to hang your wallpaper seamlessly, but they will also get an even application of wallpaper paste to avoid bubbling and imperfections immediately and over time. Plus, they can provide their professional opinion on whether to remove or wallpaper over an existing layer of wallpaper.

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. 

The average cost to remove wood paneling is $2,800, but total costs may be higher or lower depending on the size of the room, your location, and the amount of prep work required. Once the paneling is gone, you may have additional costs depending on the condition of the wall beneath.

Removing wallpaper can be easy if you have a non-coated wallpaper, but most homeowners have vinyl-coated wallpaper, which is more durable but tears very easily during the removal process. This feature makes it challenging and time-consuming to remove most wallpaper. There are tools to speed up the process, like steamers, but, unfortunately, it’s easy to permanently damage your walls when using them. In most cases, it’s best to hire a professional wallpaper remover to get the job done quickly and without damaging your home.

One of the biggest downsides to peel-and-stick wallpaper is that it doesn't last as long as traditional wallpaper. Its lifespan depends on several factors, including the quality of the paper, proper wall preparation and application, and the room's conditions. As a general rule, peel-and-stick wallpaper can last for at least five years, but this can vary significantly. Budget products may only last about 3 years, while higher-quality products can stay up for 7 years or more in ideal conditions. Factors that can shorten its lifespan include high humidity (such as in a bathroom), dirty walls, and low-quality paper. If used on flooring, expect it to last only 1 to 3 years unless sealed. However, the shorter lifespan can be seen as a positive, making it a great choice for people who enjoy switching up their interiors more frequently.
