"⭐⭐⭐⭐ 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 called The Painting Company to paint all walls, plus the kitchen cabinets, in a 3 bedroom townhouse we were putting up for sale.  Nile came to the property within a day, provided a very reasonable quote within 24 hours, and had workers available within two days.  He assembled a large crew to finish the job quickly.  They did a fantastic job of removing nails and screws from the walls and patching the holes, removing all electrical outlet and switch plates and preparing the area to ensure no paint ended up on the new hardwood floors.  Nile's team finished the work done in three days with PERFECT results.
I would definitely use The Painting Company again and would highly recommend Nile and his crew.

"Wayne and his crew are great to work with. They patched and painted interior doors and walls, as well as a 3D wall. They also painted our decks, railings, awnings and trim. We are very pleased with the attention to detail."

"After learning that our popcorn ceiling had asbestos, we reviewed all of our options. Chris provided us with the option of "putty coating" the ceiling. When I met with him to get a quote I had a lot of questions about it. He was able to answer all of my questions and make me feel like it was a viable option compared to the costly removal of asbestos. He was on time every time I met with him and was able to get started the day after he gave me the quote. He finished the work on time and it looked amazing. There were a few spots where it had started to crack. When I called Chris he came out the next business day (again on time) and fixed them promptly. It's clear that they take pride in their work. I would definitely hire them again."

"He responded to my first call right away. I got his name from my neighbor who is very fussy and who was very pleased with the quality of work. He showed up on time, completed the job within the time estimate and immediately fixed small details that I pointed out."

Wallpaper Removal questions, answered by experts

Once again, contact with moisture is the culprit here, though water-resistant varieties of wallpaper are less likely to become wet and develop mold. Using a high-quality exhaust fan or dehumidifier and leaving the doors or windows cracked after bathing will keep this issue at bay. 

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.

As long as the surface you’re putting the tile on is properly prepped, peel-and-stick backsplashes should stay on and last anywhere from 3 to 5 years. The best way to ensure the tile stays on is to sand down and clean the wall before applying your design.

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.

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.
