"Ed was fantastic, and did an amazing job with the wallpapering of our powder room. We even under ordered, and Ed came back to finish the job after we were able to get more product. Ed was professional, great to work with, and will definitely be hiring him again with future projects!!"

"Rocky did a pretty good job of removing the wallpaper from 3 bathrooms. However, he did leave some paper and glue on the walls so I had to go back and scrape this away as I had a painter coming to finish the walls. He also didn't cover up the mirrors, lighting fixtures or floors, so it took me a very long time to clean this sticky mess up. The light bar fixtures may have to be replaced because the liquid used to remove the paper left etching marks and cannot be removed."

"They say the most important part of a paint job is the prep work. Ireland's Finest did very poor prep work. Caulking was slopped on as if a panacea to performing the work well and painted over before it cured. Dirt was painted over everywhere (see pictures). The sales person told me that rotting woodwork would be repaired with Albatron wood restoration products (one of the reasons I selected I.F.), and i came home to find caulk smeared on instead to build up rotten wood. I was told that glazing putty would be used to repair failed glazing putty and came home to find caulk being used for glazing putty. In each case I had to repeatedly ask that the workers do the prep work correctly only to find corners were being cut to expedite the work. I requested the hardware be removed and was told, "we always remove the hardware" only to come home to find hardware painted over. I ended up having to remove the hardware. When I reinstalled the screens they would no longer fit due to the volume of caulk slopped into corners of the window frames. Yes, I had to reinstall the screens, I guess because I removed the hardware, so I would have to reinstall it. This was after having to repair several stretched and cut screens due to the lack of care they took handling them. When they did fit, the screens adhered to the paint and underlying uncured caulk and became fixed in place damaging wood screen frames. I was told the old wood window sashes would not be painted shut. Windows now are painted shut and after much work on my part to break them loose, the will not operate correctly due to the paint and caulk slopped into the window tracks. I had been promised that care would be taken to do the prep work properly, a specific point of my discussions with their preconstruction sales person. They were by far not the least expensive bid I received. I was ok to pay the extra expecting a quality job. I will say that they did a good job masking and painting well over the dirt. I have included a few representative photos. All in all a very disappointing experience."

"Mickey and team (as well as Kimberley) were great! They were able to do the repairs (window sills and fence gate) as well as the painting of the entire house, body and trim. The quality of the work and attention to detail were the best we've ever seen. The house looks better than new. We highly recommend Regan Renovation and Painting!"

Wallpaper Removal questions, answered by experts

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.

The simple nature of peel and stick wallpaper means it should come off much more easily than traditional wallpaper that is glued to your walls. You’ll still want to work slowly and carefully to avoid tearing it, but most peel and stick wallpaper should come off without a chemical agent to loosen it.

Using a fabric softener solution is a popular and low-cost DIY method for removing wallpaper, but its effectiveness is limited. While it may work on some types of wallpaper, it is unlikely to be successful on vintage styles, and there is no evidence that it is more effective than other removal methods. There are also several potential downsides: the solution can leave behind a residue that may damage your walls or interfere with the adhesion of new wallpaper. Additionally, this method can create a strong, overpowering aroma that takes a long time to dissipate, making it a poor choice for homeowners sensitive to smells.

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.

To remove adhesive-backed wallpaper, you’ll need to soften the adhesive before you try peeling the wallpaper off the walls. You may wonder whether peel-and-stick wallpaper damages walls. It can depend on the removal method. Make sure to be patient and consider using a steamer, hair dryer, or adhesive remover to carefully take down adhesive-backed wallpaper.
