"Orsen was great to work with from the beginning of the process when I called him to the end. I called Orsen on a Sunday and he came out same day and sent me a quote later that evening. As for my project, it included fixing a hole in my foyer ceiling where a pipe was repaired, painting that ceiling, and a couple of other ceilings in my home. See the attached before and after photos for my foyer ceiling, as Orsen did a fantastic job, and you can't tell that the ceiling ever had a hole in it. In addition to the ceiling work in three rooms, Orsen also completely painted my daughter's room and did several repairs on the wall, which I appreciated his professionalism in recommending the wall repairs to make the finished job look better. See the attached pics of the beautiful plum blossom room, Also, I finally decided to have my bar cabinet doors and fridge cutout area painted white, and it turned out nice. See attached. I highly recommend OC for any drywall and/or painting work !!!"

"The company has remodeled my master bathroom with quality jobs recently. The technicians are very knowledgeable and experienced. The best part I like is the customer service. Whenever I call and no matter what I want to talk, I can get reply with all the information I need. When I asked for reconnecting one of the water lines, they spent a lot of extra effort to let it done in a timely manner. "

"Robert was right on time for an estimate. He was able to perform the work that very same afternoon. Very reasonable pricing. Very satisfied with his work and cleanup. I will be having him return for more wallpaper removal and painting. Robert is very professional and easy going."

"Derrick is fantastic. Skilled, professional, courteous, kind, helpful, timely. Derrick painted our whole house and I feel like he treated the job as though it was his own home. Meticulous in his work and professional in his manner. I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone, nor would I use anyone else for future painting needs. Thanks, Derrick!"

"Color Concepts painted the exterior of our home, including all siding on the house, garage, and doors. They finished ahead of schedule, were timely, and the entire crew was mindful of our property and treated it as if it was their own. Howard (owner) went above and beyond to make us happy. I would highly recommend this company if you are looking for an exterior home paint job."

FAQs for wallcovering or wallpaper removal projects in Rochester, MI

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.
