"The job was done ahead if schedule. I needed the project done to put my in-laws house on the market. He came out the next day, gave me a competitive quote and scheduled the project the next week. He recommended a color we loved. The finished product exceeded my expectations. They treated the home with respect and cleaned up after themselves."

"After contacting a couple of painters for free estimates, I contacted Jack and team through Angie's list because they had good reviews and were close to the job. They showed up right away and provided me with the estimate (They have very competitive rate ?) and the time line. They even brought me some samples to try for no extra cost! Once we decided on the paint they started work right on time and they kept their word of finishing on time. They did an excellent job and cleaned up after them. After the job was done I found minor things and they were kind enough to come back and fix those. Overall I'm happy with their work and would recommend and use them in future!"

"John and his team were absolutely amazing from start to finish. John makes sure everything is discussed before starting the project and creating the contract. He goes shopping with you to ensure best options are selected. His team is very professional, clean up after themselves so you never knew they were there. John is very responsive and open to any issues or questions that may arise and is very cost conscious and economical for any issues that may be discovered throughout the process. Highly recommend John and his team"

"Mark and his team have done it all for me and there is no one I trust more with a home improvement project. Of any kind! He has built furniture for me, remodeled a bathroom, painted many rooms, hung things all over my home, swapped bathroom faucets, changed light fixtures… you name it. He is as kind as he is skilled and professional."

"Jacob was punctual and stayed on the job until it was completed.  He and his employee were neat and tidy with their work and my home suffered no collateral damage.  I have found no spilled paint or stain, there was no sealer or paint on surrounding surfaces which was important to us.  I have asked Jacob to do additional work for us because I was so pleased with his work.  As an added benefit, he seems to be a very nice person. <br />"

"From start to finish it was an absolute pleasure to work with Terence.  He repaired several spots in the plaster in my house and then skim coated one entire wall.  The results were outstanding.  He was in constant communication from my first telephone inquiry, providing a concise estimate and showing up when promised.  In addition to his craftsmanship, he is one of the most personable and trustful people I have encountered in the contracting field.  I will not hesitate to use him again or to recommend him to anyone I know.  There are not many left like him."

"It went very well, a container was used for the removed material and everything was completed in a neat, clean and timely manner. The bonus was that no interior redecorating was required after the installation of the Anderson "original construction" windows. They fit perfectly. Minor plumbing and electric work was required do to the location of the sliding doors installation as there was a baseboard heating convector there."

"Five Star Painting provided excellent services for a reasonable price. They were very responsive when we first reached out, and gave us an estimate in a day or two from when the first came to discuss the project. The price they charged was just about exactly where we were expecting it to be, and the work they did was excellent. The members of the team who came to do the work were friendly and courteous. They were respectful of our property and landscaping around the house, and did a very thorough job. We would definitely recommend Five Star Painting if you are looking to have exterior paint work done. Overall it was an excellent experience!"

"It went quite well. They painted a bedroom, two bathrooms and a dining room that were very challenging in that they had a lot of faux finishes that required sanding and a lot of priming. They also replaced countertops, light fixtures and did some carpentry - framing below chair rail, etc. A plumbing emergency arose and they handled it very well, saving us from a lot of extra expense and headache."

FAQs for wallcovering or wallpaper removal projects in Clinton, NJ

You can determine your wall type through tactile and visual tests. Start by checking the surface by inserting a thumbtack, feeling the texture, tapping to listen for a hollow sound, and examining cut edges under outlet covers. Drywall feels soft with a hollow sound, while plaster is hard and solid. These checks are especially useful in older homes where plaster is more common.

After removing wallpaper, you can dispose of small amounts in your household trash. However, if you are removing wallpaper from your entire home, you’ll need to contact a waste removal service, rent a dumpster, or arrange a special pick-up with your municipality’s waste service. Wallpaper cannot be recycled, so it is important to keep it separate from the recycling stream to comply with local waste guidelines.

It takes a professional from several hours up to a full day to remove wallpaper from a single room. The removal duration depends on the type of adhesive, the age of the wallpaper, the condition of the wall, and the number of layers present. High ceilings and additional layers increase the time required, as extra care is taken to protect the wall surface while ensuring a complete removal.

Using fabric softener with water is an option for removing wallpaper, but its effectiveness is limited and depends on the type of wallpaper being used. This low-cost method is most effective on modern, less porous wallpaper and may not yield optimal results on vintage or textured varieties. It might also affect wall surface preparation for new coverings if the residue is not completely removed. For stubborn adhesive or textured surfaces, professional solutions are recommended to ensure a thorough removal without damaging the underlying wall.
