"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."

"Tom did a fabulous job. He was punctual, attentive and very patient. When I was unhappy with the mantle color that I had selected, he worked with me to find another color and repainted it. I would strongly recommend him!"

"Nicholas did a complete repaint of my basement and I could not have asked for a better experience! Not only was he professional, but his talent really shined when he selected price competitive paint for an extremely large job. Nicholas treated our home as if it was his own and made us feel comfortable throughout the entire process. 10/10 would recomend to EVERYONE!"

"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."

"Most amazing expierence I have had with a painter.  Mickey was kind, and extremely patient.  Help me pick out just the right colors I was looking for and created a unique design for each and every room.  He was prompt, considerate, and extremely affordable.  A+++ on painting technique. So perfect!!!!  I would not hesitate to use him again.  I will never use anyone else."

Wallpaper Removal questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

Many peel-and-stick wallpapers aren’t moisture-resistant, so if you install them in high-humidity rooms, mold can grow behind the wallpaper. It’s best to reserve peel-and-stick wallpaper for bedrooms, living rooms, and other rooms with lower humidity levels. Not only does this minimize the risk of mold growth, but it also keeps the wallpaper from bubbling or peeling.

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.

Painting over wood paneling is an option that can save you money and time. However, if you go this route, the style and texture of the wood you paint over will still be evident. Painting over paneling is an excellent way to modernize an otherwise outdated aesthetic. Instead of removing wood panels, consider painting them a bright color–like white or ivory. This is essentially wainscoting, but without any of the required installation.
