Customers say: True professional

"Frank did a fantastic job wallpapering & painting my front entryway and staircase. The space has tricky walls, with odd shapes and dimensions, but Frank was incredibly knowledgeable throughout the process, from helping me figure out how many rolls of wallpaper to order, to laying out the wallpaper so that every weird angle appeared to join up seamlessly. He was professional throughout the process and easy to work with. Would recommend!"

"There were multiple openings throughout the house. I thought it would be very difficult to match the texture and color of my aging walls (house was built in 1993). Marvin did an excellent job and now one cannot tell where the openings were. He did not end his day until the work was completed according to my expectations and left the area reasonably clean considering that this type of work is very messy. He was very professional and responsive to my concerns. I will definitely hire him again."

"We had to get a pony wall removed so that the flooring guy could start installing and refinishing the floors soon. We also wanted to get our fireplace mantle lowered which required removing two rows of bricks removed. It was urgent and we had asked lots if folks for estimates and availability. Robert responded promptly and came over quickly to look over the job and give us an estimate. He sounded confident and we decided to give him the job. Since it was urgent, he was willing to come over the next day and get the wall out. he even suggested how we can paint the wall the same color to match the rest of the room and he saved a piece of the drywall to match the color (i didn't think of that!!) ... he also refinished the wall by putting in piece of drywall, textured it again and got it ready for paint and my flooring installers. He did a fab job, and completed the job in 2 days, cleaned up behind him. He was easy to got in touch with, always patient in answering questions I had. I would definitely hire him again!"

Wallpapering questions, answered by experts

You should be aware of the current wallpaper and interior trends before hanging it, especially if you are planning on selling or listing your home soon. Do people in your market tend to prefer bold designs and accent walls, or does having a simpler print all over seem like a better idea? Lastly, you want something that appeals to your aesthetic preferences; hanging wallpaper is an investment of your time and money after all.

In most cases, it is not recommended to wallpaper over existing wallpaper, as the success depends on the type of paper already on the wall. While you might be able to cover non-coated wallpaper, you should never apply new wallpaper over a vinyl-coated one, which is more common. Doing so can lead to poor adhesion, resulting in bubbles, imperfections, and peeling. It can also trap moisture, potentially causing hazardous mold growth between the layers.

Even if the existing wallpaper is suitable, experts recommend applying only one new layer. Adding multiple layers (more than two total) can cause significant adhesion problems, leading to warping and bubbling. For the best results, the recommended approach is to remove the old wallpaper and all paste residue before hanging the new paper. If you are unsure about your wallpaper type, consider consulting a professional.

Yes, many types of peel-and-stick wallpaper can be used in bathrooms, especially those made of vinyl or polyester. However, its success depends heavily on the level of moisture and ventilation. In bathrooms with good ventilation, such as those with fans, it can be a durable option. Peel-and-stick wallpaper may not adhere as well as traditional wallpaper in very humid conditions. For bathrooms that see a lot of moisture, like a kids' bathroom or a full bath with a steamy shower and poor ventilation, even high-quality peel-and-stick wallpaper is likely to peel over time.

Many types of wallpaper exist, from removable peel-and-stick options to more permanent options that involve pasting. You can also find wallpaper that you can paint over, wallpaper with a texture, and wallpaper made from various materials, such as vinyl. Some types of wallpaper are washable, which can be a great option for kitchens or if your household has small children.

If you prefer peel-and-stick to traditional wallpaper, you can skip the priming process. Many manufacturers don't require an additional primer if you’re installing peel-and-stick wallpaper to painted walls. However, if you’re applying peel-and-stick wallpaper to unfinished drywall, you’ll need to apply a primer first.
