"I had the best experience working with Stephanie and her husband Chris. Stephanie runs the customer service and design side of the business, and Chris and his employee, Simon, did the actual wallpaper install. I only needed wallpaper installed on one wall, but I had a terrible time finding a contractor to complete the work. From the moment I contacted Stephanie, she was helpful, friendly, and respectful. Chris and Simon were always on time and were polite and friendly as well. We had a couple hiccups as my wall was textured and the wallpaper I ordered was peel and stick and wouldnâ t adhere to the texture. However, Stephanie got back with me with a couple solutions to move forward - I opted to go with a liner and Chris and Simon came back the next week to install the liner and the week after to finish installing the paper. The install was more expensive than I anticipated, but I would rather pay more money to get a quality job. Chris mentioned that he would apply the wallpaper as an artist and as carefully as if he was installing it in his own home. He did!! I love the way the wallpaper turned out!!! So grateful I found Stephanie and her husband. I give them my highest recommendation."

"When I called Vargas Painting....."Jorge" was very professional and showed up on time as he promised. He inspected our home.....along with all of the boards. A few boards needed replacing and our home needed painting. Two days later I had his bid. His price was very fair. Jorge is very personable. He had very good ratings on this site, he provided me with his insurance verification without having to be asked. We hired him. He was great to work with us, as I had already planned a two week vacation and didn't want the house painted while I was gone. After the initial deposit (Approx 1/3 of the contract) we made arrangements for when he would start on our home. He was very accommodating. He started working on the agreed date. He power washed the house. Replaced the rotten boards, calked and sealed and scraped and finally painted. We used two different paints. We instructed him on how we wanted the painting and also asked for his professional opinion on a couple of smaller issues. He painted everything the way that we wanted. Every evening they cleaned up tarps and tools but they did ask if they could leave them behind our home. At the end of everyday Jorge communicated with us what was done that day, and what would be done the next day. Everything went so smoothly. The home was painted in a week. Jorge asked me on the final day to do a complete walk around on the house and make him a list of anything that was missed or that needed to be touched up or redone. My husband is very picky and he was very pleased with the job. We have other jobs around the house.....as we will be repainting our kitchen and bathrooms along with staining our kitchen cabinets. We intend on hiring Vargas painting again and again!"

Wallpaper Removal FAQs, answered by experts

As long as the surface you’re putting the tile on is properly prepped, peel-and-stick backsplashes should stay on and last anywhere from 3 to 5 years. The best way to ensure the tile stays on is to sand down and clean the wall before applying your design.

Wallpaper steamers can be very helpful for removing large sections of wallpaper more easily, but they’re not always a good idea for DIYers. The drywall behind your wallpaper is meant to stay dry, and excessive moisture from improper technique with a wallpaper steamer can leave you with severe wall damage. Drywall also retains moisture, which could result in mold growth over time. It’s best to hire a professional to remove your wallpaper with a steamer to avoid wall damage and related moisture issues.

Costs depend on wallpaper type, wall condition, labor, and necessary repairs.

One of the biggest downsides to peel-and-stick wallpaper is that it doesn't last as long as traditional wallpaper. Its lifespan depends on several factors, including the quality of the paper, proper wall preparation and application, and the room's conditions. As a general rule, peel-and-stick wallpaper can last for at least five years, but this can vary significantly. Budget products may only last about 3 years, while higher-quality products can stay up for 7 years or more in ideal conditions. Factors that can shorten its lifespan include high humidity (such as in a bathroom), dirty walls, and low-quality paper. If used on flooring, expect it to last only 1 to 3 years unless sealed. However, the shorter lifespan can be seen as a positive, making it a great choice for people who enjoy switching up their interiors more frequently.

Painting over wood paneling is an option that can save you money and time. However, if you go this route, the style and texture of the wood you paint over will still be evident. Painting over paneling is an excellent way to modernize an otherwise outdated aesthetic. Instead of removing wood panels, consider painting them a bright color–like white or ivory. This is essentially wainscoting, but without any of the required installation.
