"⭐⭐⭐⭐ I recently had the pleasure of working with the mother-daughter wallpapering team at Marie’s WallPaper, for two challenging bathroom installs, and I couldn't be happier with the results! From the moment they arrived, their professionalism and attention to detail stood out. They provided everything they needed to hang my wallpaper, tackling both jobs seamlessly and completing everything in a timely manner, which was impressive given the complexity of the projects. Who really wants to wallpaper? Not me! But thanks to their expertise, my bathroom remodel dreams have come true. They approached each task with enthusiasm and skill, proving that no job is too small or too big for this dynamic duo. They truly are a power team! I can't wait for my next project with them and would highly recommend Marie’s WallPaper to anyone looking for quality and reliability in wallpapering. Thank you, Marie and Sarah for transforming my spaces!"

"I can't say enough. I'm so glad I found somebody like Danny to repair my drywall. He was professional, skilled and very efficient. His work was perfect and he paid great attention to detail for a beyond reasonable price. He worked steadily on the job until finished (didn't leave for other work). I had a serious flood that resulted in removing walls in my home. He did an excellent job in completing the restoration and met the money allocation of my insurance adjuster. Besides the insurance work, he kindly completed numerous other small jobs for me (E.G. effectively addressing mildew on bathroom ceiling, removing and replacing broken light covers, hanging broken curtain rod, replacing angle stops, removing smoke alarms and patching, removing old thermostats and patching, sanding and resurfacing and preparing for painting for a bathroom not affected by the flood,.. and more), all for the fee of the parts. I highly recommend him!"

"It was a big job, and the price was fair. They did a thorough job of prepping every area: moving furniture, protecting every surface with plastic or paper, well taped and sealed. They sprayed the ceilings and baseboards, and did the walls, doors and other trim with roller and brush. The men were all polite and friendly, and did good work. However, despite all the prep work, I've been finding splatters and spills in nearly every room--small and easy to clean up, but more than I would have expected. I also neglected to ask them to remove nails from the walls, so they painted over them all--though they cheerfully went back and touched up the spots I asked them to."

"Chris and Jessie arrived near the beginning of the 30 minute window they provided me.  They went to work immediately, had all of the needed materials and finished within an hour, leaving behind a clean work area.  They were courteous and professional.  The patched area looks great.

A plumber had removed a piece of drywall in order to replace some pipe and a shower valve.  While I thought the drywall piece he left behind would just need to be patched back in to the old spot, it turned out some smaller pieces had been cut out and were missing, so the job was a little more involved than I had anticipated. Despite having to fill some of those gaps, Chris did't charge any extra, staying true to the estimate he provided me over the phone.  

I was particularly impressed with Chris's interest in finding a way to perform the needed services at a low cost given the small scale of this job. Several of the other companies I spoke to wouldn't make any accommodations or budge from their minimum charges.  I would definitely use Level 5 Drywall in the future and will recommend to them to my family and friends."

Wallpaper Removal questions, answered by experts

Using a fabric softener solution is a popular and low-cost DIY method for removing wallpaper, but its effectiveness is limited. While it may work on some types of wallpaper, it is unlikely to be successful on vintage styles, and there is no evidence that it is more effective than other removal methods. There are also several potential downsides: the solution can leave behind a residue that may damage your walls or interfere with the adhesion of new wallpaper. Additionally, this method can create a strong, overpowering aroma that takes a long time to dissipate, making it a poor choice for homeowners sensitive to smells.

We don’t recommend wallpapering over older paper. That’s because creating layers of glue can invite bubbling or excess moisture on the wall’s surface. You should also prime your wall before applying wallpaper and smooth the wall as much as you can, and another layer of wallpaper complicates this process.

If you can already see the texture of the existing wallpaper through the layer of paint, then the texture could also come through the new layer of wallpaper. If that’s the aesthetic you want, then proceed. But if you want a smoother surface, you should either strip off the existing paint and wallpaper or hang a layer of liner paper before proceeding.

Most jobs take 1-3 days, depending on room size and adhesive strength.

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.
