"Hired Humberto to strip a ton of old wallpaper and repaint our place in Tahoe. Two full floors, probably 2000 sq ft worth of walls. Wallpaper was everywhere and honestly I wasn’t sure what we were going to find underneath it, but his crew handled the whole thing: removal, sealing, knockdown texture, primer, two coats of paint by hand. Communication was great from the start. He called me the same day he sent the estimate and walked through his whole process which I appreciated since we were managing the project remotely. Humberto sent photos every single day as they went which was huge since we couldn’t be there during the work. Him and his crew were there every day and they finished right when they said they would. House looked great when we showed up for memorial day weekend. Clean work, no mess left behind. I would absolutely use Humberto again. He's my go-to paint guy in Tahoe now."

"This husband and wife team were top notch! They were always "positive" to all of my requests concerning the painting of the exterior portion of my house. We are very happy with the ways the colors came out for the house. They were very reasonable in the cost of doing the painting job. Would definitely hire them again!"

"I had a great experience with B.E.S. Painting. I had a relatively small project and was turned down by many painting companies due to full schedules. But when I reached out to Brian, he willingly accommodated my small office job. Brian worked within my budget to provide a thorough and quality paint job. His associate LJ even set up a chair that had been delivered while he finished up painting. He went above and beyond. My office looks just as I imagined and had hoped for. I recommend B.E.S. Painting for projects large and small."

"I only use James when I need some work done to my house. He responds fast, gets the work done quicker than just about anyone else I've ever used and seems very concerned with leaving his customers happy."

Wallpaper Removal questions, answered by experts

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.

If you’re installing new wallpaper and have leftover glue, you can remove unused wallpaper paste from the bucket or pan it’s in by letting it dry. If it’s an oil-based paste, seal it in a plastic bag and throw it in the garbage. Otherwise, toss the leftover wallpaper paste in the trash. Although it’s water-soluble, don’t rinse unused wallpaper paste down the sink because it could dry in the pipes and cause a blockage.

No, you don’t always have to remove old wallpaper before applying a new layer. However, you should pull off the existing wallpaper if it’s cracked, peeling, or in poor condition. We’d also recommend against putting wallpaper over textured or dark-colored wallpaper because the old layer may be visible through the new one. In addition, if you try to hang new wallpaper over vinyl-coated wallpaper, the adhesive might not stick properly. 

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.

You may end up with extra wallpaper once your project is finished. Hang on to that wallpaper, as you may need to use it to patch up areas that get damaged later on. If you have a lot of excess wallpaper, try getting creative with it. You can use it to line the inside of a cabinet or drawers, for example.
