Walls & Ceilings

How To Paint Paneling

A lot of people are considering painting dated 1970s paneling in their own house. Danny gets some tips from a professional painter on just how to paint paneling and trim. Watch this video to find out more.

Removing Wallpaper

Removing wallpaper is always tedious work, but knowing how to do it properly can save time and elbow grease. No matter how easy it is to remove, your wall is likely to have some dings that will need to be patched up, not to mention the mess of torn wallpaper that will have to be swept off the floor.

Faux Textured Wall Surfaces and Finishes

More Alternative Wall Surfaces Sometimes homeowners want more than just a plain, painted wall. Adding texture or a decorative finish to your walls is an excellent way to add interest and personality to a room. In the past, many people thought that these designer looks could only be created by a professional. Here are several very DIY friendly approaches that can achieve the same results.

Alternative Wall Surfaces and Decorative Finishes

Alternative Wall Surfaces With Decorative Finishes While nothing brightens up a room like a fresh coat of paint, you may occasionally feel a little adventurous and wish to try something different. There is an almost endless list of alternatives for plain, solid painted walls, and Danny has a few suggestions on how you can breathe life into your home, make a statement or simply add a touch of elegance to a room with a few simple techniques.

Brighten Up Dark Rooms With Skylights

The short, dreary days of winter are a good time to think about adding skylights to brighten up dark rooms. Even small units make a big difference in the way rooms look and feel.

Retaining Walls

Usually the only solution for managing a hilly lot is the construction of a retaining wall. While these walls can be constructed from many materials, by far the most durable are masonry (brick, block, or stone).

Drywall Repair

Nail pops in drywall are a fairly common repair for homeowners. They are especially common on stairwells and walls beneath stairs. But don’t worry; it’s an easy fix. Begin by digging out the old nail or screw with a knife or pair of pliers.

Taking Down Walls

Taking Down Walls Taking down a wall or removing a section of one is a part of most major remodeling projects. Over the years, many of my customers have had us break through a wall in a little-used formal dining room to enlarge the kitchen and create an open floor plan. We’ve also removed quite a few walls for homeowners who want to transform small adjoining bedrooms into a single master suite. And, of course, exterior walls frequently need to be removed for additions in order to help integrate the new space with the old.
