"We had a wonderful experience using J.A. Wallcovering to install peel and stick wallpaper for our nursery. They scheduled us within a week of us reaching out, were professional, and completed the job very quickly. We had an issue installing peel and stick wallpaper after someone else we originally hired could not complete the job."

The project went perfectly smooth and project was finished on time and within budget. Nir was reachable all the time, he gave me great advices and answered to my questions. Thank you LA Expert Builders on a beautiful new kitchen you did for me!"
"3 Star Painting was super. I needed the wood portions of my father's home painted in advance of anticipated El Nino weather in the Southern California region. Marty walked the property with me and identified precisely what needed to be done. He didn't attempt to upsell me. He gave me a fast and very fair quote. He and his team showed up on time, finished the work on schedule and was responsive throughout the entire process. I will use him again in the future and am happy to recommend him. "
"In preparation for selling our home we hired Sanchez to paint the complete interior, which included quite a lot of old wallpaper in the kitchen and the master bathroom. They also painted the dated old brown oak kitchen cabinets to a more contemporary medium grey. Everything was going well, the house was empty, we had a lock box set up so the crew came and went each day with an anticipated 6 or 7 day completion for all the work we had requested. We left on a short trip and when we returned we realized that the living areas of the house that were suppose to be painted a light grey, were not that color at all. Jay responded to my panicked phone call, came immediately and 2 days later the paint was fixed. Turns out that the paint company mixed the paint incorrectly. Even though the job took 2 extra days, Jay made it right and the crews that came out to paint were great, they let us work around them to do what we needed to do at the same time. The reviews we are getting now that the house is on the market are all positive, very nice, cozy, light, well maintained."
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.
To determine how many rolls of peel-and-stick wallpaper you need, measure the square footage of the walls you’re covering and divide that by the square footage that each roll covers. Add 10% to 20% of your total square footage to account for pattern matching or damage while installing.
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.
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.
Wallpaper lasts an average of around 15 years, but there is some variance. The type of wallpaper matters, as vinyl wallpaper tends to last the longest—sometimes 20 years or more—while a peel-and-stick wallpaper, which is the easiest to install for DIYers, will usually only last for around five years. Exposure to high humidity, smoke, and UV rays from sunlight can also limit the lifespan of your wallpaper, as can heavy traffic in the installation area.
