"He was very responsible and professional. His estimate was very reasonable and his work was excellent. We weren't given the choice of exactly what he did on this review. So I am putting what he did here. He and his wife removed the wallpaper and put up new."

"Mario did a fantastic job painting our new nursery - walls, trim and ceiling. After having a cancellation with another service provider earlier in the week, we contacted Mario and he came out next day to assess and quote the room. Two days later he was here to do the work - on time and on the budget we discussed. He came prepared with all of his equipment, showed us the paint color to confirm before he started and got right to work and finished in half a day! He was extremely personable and professional and we would highly recommend him for any job. We hope to work with Mario again the future!"

"Will did an amazing job painting our home. We called Will in a panic after someone ruined our kitchen walls claiming they were a great painter... we ended up with thick drip marks on the wall, paint on the ceiling, trim, floor, everywhere! Will stopped by, immediately knew the job was not done by a professional and explained the process to correct the botched job--sanding, primer, and then repainting the ceiling and walls. Will also painted our living room, stair way, and upstairs hallway. When he told us he doesn't use tape, I didn't know what to expect... but his work blew us away! We now have a beautiful sunny yellow kitchen, a nice beachy front door, and the thresholds are shiny and new again too! We also love our newly stained and sealed deck. In a world filled with dishonest and lazy people selling their services, Will is not only honest and hardworking, but he's also detail oriented and extremely talented. You will not be disappointed by Will. He's a great communicator, always on-time, and we look forward to having him paint the exterior of our entire house next spring."

"I was searching for a painting company that I could establish a long term relationship with. I found that company with Keen Eye Painting. The owner, Amed, is professional and easy to deal with. His workers, Carlos and Giovanni, are not only professional painters, they are hard working employees who take pride in their work. I not only found a long term relationship with Keen Eye Painting and Amed. I acquired two new friends, Carlos and Giovanni."

"Upon calling Jay for an estimate  - he came out promptly to look at the job in hand.  He supplied a detailed estimate within a couple of days and we agreed upon this.  His crew began working within a couple of weeks of original suggested date due to bad weather they could not start earlier.  Once here, they were very hardworking, thorough and professional.  All of his crew were excellent painters and took their time to make it look really nice.  They cleaned up each day after they left and were respectful of the property. 
I would definitely recommend them to any of my friends and neighbors.  I will be using this company in the future to update our bathroom and replace handrails in the hallway. 
Bethany, Jay's wife deals with the administration/financial side and is a delightful lady.
This is a great company that believe in good workmanship."

FAQs for wallcovering or wallpaper removal projects in Middletown, RI

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.
