"I am pleased that we had selected a painting contractor who fulfilled all of the requirements of the contract and then some. Our aging 4-unit wooden condominium complex had been neglected for 10 years and needed extensive preparation and repair in some areas and as well as a complete pressure wash, wood staining, trim priming and painting on all exterior areas. Matt and his crew exhibited the highest caliber of attention to detail and quality of work. They even went beyond the scope of the proposal and painted in areas that should have been included in the contract-with no extra charge. Quality, dedication & integrity are words I think of when looking back at a challenging 2-week job that was, by the way, the most competitively priced - by far."

"Poor service, poor follow-up, and no customer service. They left drips running down most of the windows. (See photos.) They came back and smeared around some of the drips, but left other windows with drip stains running down them. They damaged my property. They broke a sprinkler and didn't tell me. (See photo.) This caused water to spray up onto the windows that had been cleaned. I requested a refund, and they ghosted me."

"I highly recommend Tim. He and his crew did an excellent job painting both the interior and exterior of my home. They were prompt, detailed, and made sure I was completely satisfied. If you’re looking for the highest quality craftsmanship, at a reasonable price, then Tim is your guy. They were always on time, friendly, and very professional. When it came time to do the final walk-thru, there were no touch ups needed – very impressive!"

FAQs for wallcovering or wallpaper removal projects in Spring Valley, CA

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.
