We also have a construction and general contracting division available to service your project needs, with over 30 years of construction management experience. Our commitment is to customer satisfaction. We operate a crew of 5-8 people, with myself (the owner) on site working alongside my experienced painters. We have extensive knowledge of Benjamin Moore's product lines, and utilize that to customize a plan to take the customer from beginning to completion of their vision for their home. We have a history of being highly reliable, easy to work with, and enjoyable to have in your home. Our delight is in creating happy customers who are proud of their homes. We thrive on compliments and referrals, and work over and above the requirements of the contract to earn both. We want to be your painter for life, and look forward to earning your trust. Additional phone number - (908) 391-6020. Additional DBA - Jeffrey T Lawler Inc. Award winning.

"Not well. In general, the painting was sloppy. Globs of paint were found around the trim work. Spackle was not sanded full smooth and then painted over, leaving the walls not looking smooth. Paint was splash on the cabinets, door handles and hardware, and floors. They left debris in every room that they worked in that we had to clean. They also put chalk between the ceiling and cabinets in the kitchen when it wasn't asked for and when it looked terrible, the owner removed it and scraped the ceiling significantly, then had to be asked to fix his mess. In the end, that area looked worse than it did before the job. This is not a company that respects your house and puts care into their work to make your house better."

Along with the Monk's Kitchen & Bath Design Studio, we are a full-service home improvement provider. Monk's will help you plan, design, and purchase everything you need for a remodel. Then our expert craftsmen will install everything and our painters will come and complete the job.

"I highly recommend the Monk's team, led by Bill Buckner, along with Alonzo Guzman and their team, including Juan, Issac, Diego and the others. The guys were professional and polite, answered all my questions, stayed focused on the job at hand, kept things tidy, and arrived and departed on time. I'm so pleased with my bathroom renovation. It's perfect. I will call on Monk's again when I'm ready for my next project. Deb F"

"Estimator quoted 2 days labor and $1700. They spent 3.5 hours altogether and did the worst painting job I've ever seen done by a professional painter. When I called the estimator to recalculate the bill they said NO. You wanted painting, you got painting. No sanding, no spackling, no nothing. If a dead cat had been laying on the floor they would have painted right over it. But it was painted. The recoat time for the paint they used was 4 hours, so they could not possibly have done the job correctly to start with. The estimate was based on labor time which was quoted at 2 days. They worked less than one quarter of that time. But still charged the entire amount. All in all, a crap job and an expensive lesson."

General remodeling and refurbishing. Ranging from panting, tile work, sheet rock, flooring, bathrooms, basements, attics, decks, electrical work, plumbing, pavers, and power washing to name a few. I have been operating locally for the past 10 years, with a dictated crew including myself.

"I was very satisfied with 2 projects performed (yes I hired a second time). First project was patio fixing and extending, and second, was attic remodeling, flooring and painting. Quality was high and initial budgeting was accurate and reliable. Very professional folks and working with very good quality. Till next time with them."

"I’ve been a customer of Wilber’s for several years. Up till now I’ve always found them to be reasonable in price, professional, reliable and trustworthy. I don’t know what’s happened but, they are no longer the company they used to be. I recently hired Wilbers to repair a loose newel post at the bottom of my stairs. When Danny the estimator came he explained that it might be an easy fix or more involved if they needed to install a new 4X4 interior post. Though I requested that he provide estimates for both scenarios he only sent the estimate for the worst case scenario. I let that go because I trusted that they would do the right thing should it prove to be an easy fix. When they arrived it turned out that all that was needed was to replace the wooden board in the basement with a 2 ft. 2x4 and tighten the bolt that runs inside the post. The workers were here for 1 hour and for this Wilber’s decided that a fair price was $820. It seemed absolutely outrageous to me that they would charge me $820 to tighten a bolt so I tried reaching out to Wilber 3 times and asked that he call me back to discuss. Well he never called me back. I can only assume that he knows full well that he did is wrong and is unable to justify his outrageous pricing. It’s sad that Wilber thinks this is how you should treat a loyal customer and it’s certainly disappointing to discover what an unprofessional and unethical person he is. I certainly will never utilize the services of Wilbers ever again and I would caution anyone thinking of hiring them to think twice. Wilber is a man that lacks integrity and therefore someone you cannot trust to do business with."

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.
