Can i live in my house while the work is being done?
We understand what an inconvenience having workers in your home can be. Many trades have a tendency to take on more work than they can do, working one day on your home and one day on someone else's house. We believe in scheduling our jobs and staying with one at a time from start to finish if possible. Not only do we cover and protect your home, we clean up every day and never leave a mess. We take great pride in our work and also in the manner in wich we preform it.
What if I want to change in the future?
In most cases you can just paint right over the walls because there are no waxes. Sometimes you can just go over it with another coat of the product to change the color.
