"Bill and his team did a FANTASTIC job painting our new home that was in need of some bright new paint.  The walls were in pretty awful shape with lots of dings, drywall issues, some walls needing wall paper removal not to mention the crown molding either needing to be replaced or smoothed out.  Bill came for an estimate right away when I contacted him (accommodating after work hours) and spent a lot of time with me discussing how he'd do the job and explaining different aspects of painting to me. I had a lot of questions and he was patient and so informative.  He also happily came back out to the house to answer follow up questions before he started the job.
He arrived with his crew on time right when he said he'd start the job and they finished on time in 4 days. I couldn't believe the amount of prep work they did to get the walls in good shape to paint and in the end, it looks amazing. Everyone compliments me on what a great job they did and how good the house looks now- it's amazing what paint can do!
Bill is so knowledgeable and is always happy to answer your questions.   He also will let you proceed as you planned without complaint (I really wanted to use BM colors vs. color matching to Behr paint) and go the extra mile to make sure you are happy with the job in the end.  He even spaced out painting the bedrooms so I'd have somewhere to sleep each night!
The tape job they did to make sure none of our stuff was damaged was impressive and they cleaned up so well. His crew is friendly, professional, and I had no problem letting them come into the house each day while we were at work to do the job.
We will have them back to do some other paints jobs we have planned, but we so happy we found Bill and his team!

"Made initial contact with Frank set the appointment, he arrived on time did a walkthrough he explained in detail what needed to be done. The old paint was lead base and Stanford is one of the lead certified company’s that can remove lead paint correctly. The men showed up on time daily wore protective equipment because of the lead in the paint. They scraped and sanded did a really nice prep job. About halfway through Adam from Stanford came and went over the color scheme for the new paint. By the end of the week all painting was completed. The house looks Awesome! , Will definitely hire again. The crew did an awesome job even the clean up was great."

"The work went very well. He arrived on time with a helper and they did a fantastic job removing wall paper. They cleaned up afterward and observed all the precautions with Covid 19. I would use again in a minute! Very pleased."

"During the process of removing the acoustic ceiling they took down all the ceiling fixtures. When they put them back they were in the wrong place. A ceiling fan was not reinstalled at all and a bathroom fixture put in its place with no fixture now in the bathroom. this should have been a clue that something was wrong. I contacted the provider but failed to get a call back. Now I have to hire an electrician to complete the job correctly.

"Painters were Hispanic with only the foreman speaking English.  They were on time, covered the floor and furniture well, did a good job on the painting but so-so job on the seam tape (I complained that the tape looked irregular and they said it was because the wall underneath was rough-they should have sanded it if that was the case); they missed a wallpapered wall in the kitchen (next to the double oven - a small area) and had to return to finish the work. they did a poor job on sanding rough spots on the walls and in most cases left the wall pretty much as it was - leaving rough looking places that we will have to sand and repaint ourselves later.  They (the owner and the foreman) were asked many times to give me a price first, on a repair job outside the work estimate (two feet long or so) in the bathroom - it needed sanding and new paint - they never once gave me a price but insisted they do the work saying "no problem - no problem - we'll do the work"; when the job was completed, the owner called and wanted two hours worth of additional payment which I refused to pay; I was left with a bad overall feeling about this company due to them not getting back to me on a price for the small additional work before they did the work but tried to collect after the fact - after the work was done; I had to almost push them out of the house on the third day due to a very important business meeting commitment that I could not be late for - the job was supposed to be 2 1/2 days and it took 3 days (they wisely added a third person on the third day); overall, the work was okay except that they should have sanded the walls and repair more than they did; I would try another company in the future."

Wallpaper Removal questions, answered by experts

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

Wallpaper in bathrooms can last anywhere from one to 10 years, depending on what type was used, how well it was installed, and the measures in place to reduce moisture and humidity levels. Opting for a more durable variety and taking all the necessary protective measures will get you closer to that longer lifespan.

White walls are considered a classic and timeless look and will most likely always be in style. A white wall easily blends into any type of home decor style which makes it a suitable option for most homeowners. Another appealing quality about white walls is that if it's not a color someone is going for, the color is easy to paint over.

While it is possible to paint over wallpaper, it is generally better to remove it first to guarantee a smooth, professional finish. Painting over wallpaper can save time, but it may lead to issues if not done correctly.

You can paint over existing wallpaper if it is in excellent condition: smooth, non-textured, clean, and firmly adhered to the wall. Ensure there are no bumps, tears, or peeling areas, and that all corners and seams are securely glued down. You might also consider painting over wallpaper if removing it would damage the underlying wall. Additionally, some wallpapers are specifically designed to be paintable, which can add texture to a room.

However, there are risks. If the wallpaper is textured, damaged, or peeling, these imperfections will show through the new paint. The moisture from the paint can also loosen the wallpaper's adhesive, causing it to bubble and potentially damage the wall. To mitigate these issues, clean the surface thoroughly and use an oil-based primer to help the paint adhere and prevent the old adhesive from bleeding through.

Prime and repaint walls after removal to ensure a clean, finished surface.
