"Brad and his team team did a fantastic job. They repaired some wooden siding, and then painted the entire house exterior. He was competitive on price, honored the original quote even though the job turned out to be a little more than expected (I suspect), cleaned up every day, and took care of some problems that arose. Very easy to work with, and communications were prompt. I asked for the scrap wood siding to be left behind for me to burn in my fire pit, and his team cut it up in 16 inch segments. Totally unnecessary, but it’s the little things sometimes."

"I dealt with Tim for the price and project details and then Jeff was the man who came out to do the job. The deck had previously been done by a guy who did not know what he was doing so Jeff power washed the entire deck and let it dry for 24 hours, then he sanded the deck and scrubbed it down with denatured alcohol to help remove any remaining paint from before. When the deck was dry, Jeff taped off everything and proceeded to edge everything before he rolled a nice thick layer of paint on the deck. We waited another 24 hours and Jeff returned to apply a nice second coat of paint on the entire deck. Tim and Jeff are very easy to work with and I will most certainly come back to them for future projects."

"<p>I had originally decided to just have an accent wall in the bathroom.  After Chris completed that wall a few weeks ago, I realized that I needed to paper all the walls.  I ordered more wallpaper and Chris was able to work me into his schedule sooner than expected.</p> <p>Chris does quality work, he is neat and clean and the papering is beautiful.  The paper added that extra touch that had been missing.</p> <p>If you want great looking wallpapering with great seams and no bubbles, Whalen Wallpapering is your go to person.  If I do any more wallpapering, Chris will be the one that I call.</p> <p></p> <br />"

"Every thing was great. They recommend an eggshell paint where I previously used Flat . I loved the Eggshell looks so much better than the Flat. I would highly recommend. They took all mirrors down and blinds. They were on time and cleaned up after. Walls and Baseboards looked amazing. Loved, Loved, Loved I will definitely be using again."

"I was very nervous about using Angies List and this was my first experience doing so and I can tell you now <br /> that I have never been so happy with my decision. I made a phone call to Debi and got her voice mail. I was sure that <br /> this would be the end of my quest for getting my house painted. I had contacted several other painters and they never called back <br /> so why would I think this would be any different. To my surprise I was contacted immediately by Debi and met with her <br /> a couple days later so she could see what I wanted done and get a bid. Debi was very prompt and took the <br /> time to listen to what I wanted. I received the bid later that day and was very surprised at how reasonable she <br /> was. I scheduled the work to be done later in the month and was shocked when I received a phone call <br /> just to touch base and to let me know we were on schedule and that she would contact me the week of to get my <br /> paint colors. Debi and her crew showed up on time and as scheduled. Debi was on the job the whole <br /> time and not just as a supervisor and quot;she was paintingand quot; They all worked great together and were very friendly and extremely <br /> patient with my 5 year old grandson who did not want the painting to be done. By the time they were finished my grandson had helped <br /> paint and was and quot;OKand quot; with the new color! Everything Debi and her team did was great, they were very neat with their work, <br /> cleaned up everything when the job was finished. I just couldn't believe how quick they worked and got the job done. I can <br /> say nothing bad about this experience and I have already scheduled Debi and her crew to do more work in my home. Thank you <br /> Angie's List for a great service and Thank you Debi and your crew for doing a GREAT JOB! <br />"

"The excellent professional services provided by the McKelvy’s painter team absolutely exceeded my expectations. Sean McKelvy won my business through his willingness to listen to my concerns and his ability to deliver exceptional work at a reasonable price. My experience with them was so good I wanted others to know this is a company to consider for quality painting. I will be hiring them again for future interior painting work. I have never submit a review on any service or company until now. They did such an outstanding job and I am so pleased with the results!"

FAQs for wallcovering or wallpaper removal projects in Middletown, OH

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.
