"Marvin and his company Creative Remodeling and Restoration made initial contact with me the day of my initial request for a quote and his and mine schedule worked out to where he got out to my house the next day. This was a laminate floor repair and restoration job that I had tried myself to do but realized that I needed a professional with the tools and materials to properly do it. He did the repair and restoration of the flooring at a very fair price and I'm very happy with the results. "

"These guys are the very best, most knowledgeable painters I’ve ever encountered in my life. They are responsive, fair, professional and they went above and beyond for our home. I would definitely recommend them. We had a laundry list of home improvement items that we had tried to fix ourselves, and they were able to literally give my home a facelift. Everyone who has come over has instantly noticed. The quality of paint is exactly what we needed. Nick listens to your needs and is a wealth of information if you have any questions. Looking to resell your home and gain a higher resale value? Book these guys. They were able to get everything done in one day. Have renters and need a facelift for new renters? Book these guys. Want to go with the latest Pinterest ideas? Book these guys! They were able to get wonderful new colors of paints and color match my existing colors. I’m beyond impressed. You won’t be disappointed."

"We had a need to have wallpaper placed and a mirror rehung in a guest bathroom. Hector and Fabi were extremely easy to work with and gave a good quote, worked around our schedule which involved them coming in on a Saturday and Sunday. They were very friendly as well as very professional. As you can also see from the pictures they did an outstanding job! Should we ever need painting or wallpaper, in the future they will absolutely be our first call! HIGHLY RECCOMEND!!"

"First off the flooring was completed beautifully, it looks wonderful!! On the other side of this though…the workers did not show up consistently throughout the install. What could have easily been a 3-4 day job turned into a 5 day job, and to top it off the last day ended up being the longest day working from 9a to 7p. The last day they solely worked on the stairs. Tore up the newly painted walls and stair base, and left gaps between the riser and step. With all of this they didn’t even bring the amount of materials that we paid for, they were 5 boxes short which amounts to about $500, and still charged for the labor for the missing boxes and the 10% overage allowed for cuts, which amounted to another $500 or more. They were supposed to install painted wood risers on the stairs, which was not done. I confronted the Owner/president who apologized offered to fix the work on the stairs, and offered me a 1 box allowance. Did not acknowledge any of the problems in any way except to send someone in to “fix” the problem and a $100 discount on a $20,000 dollar job. That is clearly unprofessional and insulting. There was no care or concern about the inconvenience, and I was treated like I was lying so that I could get a discount. I even sent pictures of the materials that were delivered, the damage, etc. This was the second time I used them, and the last. I have gotten much better service and communication from cheaper companies. I would recommend you proceed with caution when using them."

"Great job! Just had them upgrade a bathroom and help to restore damage to several rooms caused by a leaking toilet. They worked well with our insurance to get it all done. They were fast, respectful and very easy to work with. Everything looks great!"

FAQs for wallcovering or wallpaper removal projects in San Antonio, TX

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.
