"Just a quick shout out to Roberts Painting. Local father (Rick) Son (Tim) Company in Carmel. They just completed painting our house and did an outstanding job, their price was VERY reasonable and communication was fantastic! They cleaned up the exterior daily, blowing off patio, walks and porch. I have contracted them todo our interior painting where they will also replace all the baseboards, trim, paint the ceilings and doors. I wish I would have known about them the last 2 times house was painted! Highly recommend! Looking forward to continued business"

In addition to interior and exterior painting, we do dry wall and plaster repairs, and some minor finish carpentry, such as installing crown molding, chair railing and baseboards. We also do exterior siding, trim and window sill repairs and/or replacement. 12 employees. Cost is determined by the job. No travel charges. EPA lead safe certified.

"We have used Fine Painting for several years at our home and during a total rehab of my mom's home in 2017 after she had passed away. We just completed another project in our home - master bedroom ceiling paint, master bath wallpaper removal and painting, hall bath ceiling and wall painting, including minor wall repairs. Everyone was great, as always. They were very accommodating with us in rescheduling due to the tornado damage to our home in April and then we had to leave on short notice due to our daughter's emergency C-section. When finally able to reschedule, Gary and crew showed up on time and went right to work. They did all that was asked to do based on the quote. They did a great job in cleaning up. We highly recommend them and will continue to use them for additional projects in the future."

FAQs for wallcovering or wallpaper removal projects in Indianapolis, IN

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.
