We just moved into a house in Melrose, just north of Boston, and we need a bunch of wallpaper removed and walls painted. I was hoping someone here has had a good experience and could give me a suggestion. Also, looking for once a week house cleaning. If you have any other recommendations in or around the Melrose area, ie. restaurants, preschool, churches, shops, etc. please send them my way! Thanks so much!!
get a sprayer and fill with HOT water and vinegar.. the smell is awful, but soak the walls (score them first with a scorer) and the wallpaper will come off very easily.
My husband is a painter. He has recently been thinking about going out on his own. If you would like an estimate, you can call me at ###-###-####. He painted my friend's condo in 2 evenings (after work) and she has told everyone she knows what a great job he did. Two of her friends and her mother had him come do work at their condos/ houses, as well. The only thing is, he is working now so he could do it on a weekend. I also know a good cleaner, but I will have to get the phone number (my aunt and uncle use them and love them).
I know a great house cleaner! She lives in Arlington but drives all over. Her name is Naime Silva, pronounced Ni-me. Her number is ###-###-####. She has reasonable rates and can usually get to you about a week or so after you call. My brother-in-law is a contractor and paints interior/exterior, everything! His name is Joe Buckley, and you can reach him at ###-###-####. If you do call him, tell him you got his name from his brother Mike's wife L.. Good luck!
My father and a friend of his do that kind of work here the number if your want a painter and wall papper removed its ###-###-#### ask for Robert Luebbe
