"Today was the second time I've had work done at my home by Jimmy/CARA PVD. Once again they earned a solid 5 stars! Jimmy and his crew absolutely care about the quality of the work they do, and the pricing is very competitive. All the repairs and repainting turned out AMAZING - both this time and a couple years ago when I had a garage door plus multiple interior touch up spots repaired. Thank you Jimmy and CARA PVD!"

"My experience with Lou Phillips Painting was just great. I wanted to get epoxy flooring done in my garage. The price and quality of the work aligned very well. Austin was very professional and provided me with expectations ahead of time. I would recommend them to anyone I know and may seek their painting services in the future."

"I found Mike thru Angie's List. I could not be more pleased with the work performed. Mike was on time and had the proper equipment to perform the requested work. He treated the job as if it was his own home, which I appreciated. I highly recommend Mike and will definitely contact him again for similiar work."

"Janos is a true artist! I have hired him to refinish and repair floors in two different 1920’s homes and they both turned out absolutely beautiful! He was able to replace pieces of the damaged floor and blend it in to the original so that it is seamless. He brought new life back into those original wood floors and they look incredible. He pays attention to every detail and communicates every concern / question / etc. to make sure that everything was exactly as I wanted. I would recommend him in a heartbeat! And if I ever need more work done, he will be my first call!"

"made a substantial deposit to get on their schedule. That was 3 months ago on 6/16/22. No response on the start date. Called many times, emailed, and left voice mail messages on their cell and with their answering service. All messages and calls went unanswered, not even courtesy of a response. So unprofessional! I wonder now if ATI is a scammer. If they were legit I ask why then no response."

FAQs for wallcovering or wallpaper removal projects in Riverview, FL

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.
