Specializing in historical homes, we're family-owned with 20+ years of experience. We take pride in the quality of our work, attention to detail, and professionalism. We can handle any of your painting and staining needs - from painting 100-year-old homes and new construction, to drywall and plaster repairs, to staining decks and other woodwork. No job is too large or too small, and we never subcontract.

"My wife and I hired Duff Painting Company to paint the exterior of our two-story cedar house in Webster Groves. The house had been previously painted by a different company 10 years ago, but the sun exposed sides started to crack and peel several years ago, perhaps prematurely. Mike Duff, the owner, was a joy to work with. Shortly after being contacted, he came to our house for purposes of discussing our needs and to formulate a bid which was emailed just a few days later. I also received bids from three other companies. I went with Mike because I got the sense that his small company would provide a superior level of skill, attention to detail and craftsmanship compared to the others (and I was right about that), and because his bid was more reasonable than the others for the same work. We made a great choice. Mike’s team of long-term experienced employees showed up on time every day, and were very pleasant, professional, hard-working, and competent. They did an excellent job scrapping, prepping and priming the many rough patches unlike the previous two painting companies we had used. They skillfully taped all the windows. They used a combination of a sprayer and hand rollers to apply the 2 coats. They cleaned up after themselves every day such that you would not have known they were there, and made sure to leave their equipment overnight on different parts of the grass each day so as not to kill it during the week it took to finish the job. It was obvious the team did not believe in cutting corners or rushing the job. The team leader was very good at explaining the process, and he went the extra mile to take care of some additional painting requests I made on the spot which were not part of the original contract. I greatly appreciated the flexibility. Also unlike the prior painting companies, they had a porta potty temporarily installed so the workers would not disturb us during the day. And best of all, the house looks great! The job was finished toward the end of May 2024. When it comes time to paint the house again, Duff Painting Company will get the job. Dave Davis June 2024"

Wallpaper removal services FAQs

Hiring a professional wallpaper remover is almost always worthwhile. Although the work is more expensive due to labor costs, doing it yourself is extremely time-consuming, complicated, and easy to make mistakes and wreak havoc on your walls, regardless of the tools you use. Professional wallpaper removers have the tools and experience to get old wallpaper down quickly and without damaging the walls behind it.

Removing wallpaper can be easy if you have a non-coated wallpaper, but most homeowners have vinyl-coated wallpaper, which is more durable but tears very easily during the removal process. This feature makes it challenging and time-consuming to remove most wallpaper. There are tools to speed up the process, like steamers, but, unfortunately, it’s easy to permanently damage your walls when using them. In most cases, it’s best to hire a professional wallpaper remover to get the job done quickly and without damaging your home.

In most cases, you cannot wallpaper over existing wallpaper. It’s possible to wallpaper over non-coated wallpaper, but vinyl-coated wallpaper is much more prevalent in homes, so you generally shouldn’t put new wallpaper over existing wallpaper. Adding a layer of wallpaper over vinyl-coated paper will lead to poor adhesion, leaving behind bubbles and imperfections in your wall. Plus, wallpapering over vinyl-coated wallpaper can lead to mold growth, which can be hazardous to your health. It’s usually best to hire a local wallpaper removal service to handle the task to avoid these issues.

The average cost to remove wallpaper is around $3 per square foot, but the total depends on the type of wallpaper, how easy it is to remove, and the size of the room. Most homeowners spend around $780 per room for wallpaper removal, and prices typically fall between $200 and $2,000. Wallpaper removal is expensive because it tends to be a very time-consuming job, and it can sometimes take a full day or more for the work to complete.

The easiest way to remove wallpaper is to use a steamer. The hot steam will loosen the wallpaper paste and make peeling the wallpaper off in large sheets much easier. Unfortunately, steamers can create irreparable damage on your walls, so it’s not a good idea for DIYers to use steamers to remove wallpaper. Instead, hire a professional wallpaper remover to do the work for you. This method will not only speed up the process, but it will also ensure your walls will remain intact post-wallpapering.
