"⭐⭐⭐⭐ 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!"

"Brad arrived on time. He was very thorough; walked through the house taking notes. More is involved in removing this type of ceiling than I was aware of. He explained the steps. He did not give an estimate on the spot; he emailed estimate two days later. I was not happy that the job would take 4 days. I am looking into getting other estimates before I reach decision."

"Jay Sanchez and their crew exhibited nothing but professional demeanor, both in initial communications and during the work itself. My involvement with Jay Sanchez personally during the quoting process was very pleasant, and he answered all my questions (which were many). His quote was inexpensive, and customized for what I was looking for (others I called pretty much ignored my inquiries and requests). His crew took extra care and went beyond the call of duty during preparation, doing the work, and cleanup. Also, it was discovered after doing the the specified work (a horrifically complex wallpaper removal) that there was a lot of old water damage to the wall under the wallpaper which could not have been foreseen or expected. I am on an extremely limited budget and Jay worked with me and had his guys fix things for far less than I might have imagined. He also advised me on how I might do some DIY procedures which will enable me finish the project myself (very rare in this day and age). He really showed he genuinely wanted to help me and fully understood the circumstances of the limited budget I was working with. He didn't have to do this. Most companies would have just said "well, that's life, and it is what it is... pay up". But Jay called me immediately, we discussed the options, and he had his guys do more work to ease the situation at an unexpectedly fair and more than reasonable low price. So, this is why this review is a bit "long-winded", because I wanted to express my appreciation for this company and Jay. I can't recommend this outfit high enough. Kudos to you and your team Jay!

Wallpaper Removal questions, answered by experts

To remove pre-pasted wallpaper, you’ll need to wet the wallpaper or steam it to loosen the paste on the back of the wallpaper. Spray the paper with water, then let it soak for 10 to 20 minutes. From there, you should be able to peel off the wallpaper. Then, you may need to follow up with a cleaning solution and a scraper to remove any remaining wallpaper paste on the walls.

Yes, most professionals patch and smooth walls after removal to prepare for new finishes.

Limewash can be removed from brick, but the method of removal will depend on how long the limewash has been on the brick. If the limewash has fully dried—which happens after about five days—you’ll need to use a diluted muriatic acid mixture to remove it. If there are multiple coats of limewash, you may need to apply the acid mixture several times to fully remove it from the brick.

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.

It can take a professional anywhere between several hours and a full day to remove wallpaper in one room. How long wallpaper removal takes depends on the type of adhesive, the wallpaper’s age, the condition of the walls, and more.
