I am a female Minority Contractor. I completed a 4 year apprenticeship with the Painters & Decorators Union, District Council #36. A.F.L.C.I.O.. I stayed with the Union for 14 years giving me vast knowledge in commercial work, Hotels, Ballroom, Presidential suites. I love my skill and giving my clients the finest of craftsmanship for installations of the new 21st Century Wallpapers. I have been licensed for over 22 years working solo but I have just added an incredible talent to my team and we are looking forward to serving our counties with quality European Craftsmanship Oleksandr Brezhenar who has added his incredible talent to my team!

"The installer is the owner of the company and she is the most knowledgeable professional of her craft of wallcovering installation -which is an art in itself and requires years to perfect. There are not many wallpaper installers around today who can hang ordinary papers to the very expensive textured grasscloths, silks, linens with confidence and ease. I highly recommend Jerra Chavez for any level of installation, both residential and commercial projects."

Wallpaper Removal questions, answered by experts

Removing a wallpaper border requires the same process to remove full walls of wallpaper. Clear the area, spray down the surface with your hot water and vinegar solution or store-bought spray, wait 10 to 15 minutes, then scrape it off with a putty knife. Sometimes, border wallpaper lifts easier than larger sheets, so you can just peel it right off the wall by hand.

Most experts would not recommend hanging wallpaper over existing wallpaper more than twice. Even if the walls are in good condition and primed well, that third layer of wallpaper could cause problems with adhesion. Unless you like bubbling paint and peeling wallpaper as an interior design choice, it’s better to remove at least one existing layer before adding any more to a wall.

Think hard before deciding to German schmear your home’s exterior brickwork. If you do not like the look, you are pretty much stuck with it, as it is impossible to remove this finish the way you can remove paint. You risk damaging the underlying brick if you have to chisel and acid-wash it away. It will also take a very long time, and remnants of the mortar wash will always remain.

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.

The fastest way to remove wallpaper is usually to spray the paper with a mixture of hot water and either vinegar or dish soap, let it soak in, and then scrape off the wallpaper using a putty knife. Unfortunately, this process can easily damage your walls if you spray too much or scrape too aggressively. Your best bet is to call in a professional wallpaper remover who knows how much to wet the walls and how much pressure to apply when scraping the paper off. They might also use steamers and other tools to speed up the process.
