"A and Z did wallpaper in my daughters room and did an amazing job. They were available the next day after I contacted them, brought all their own materials, and finished the job in under an hour. The wallpaper looks absolutely gorgeous you can’t see any seams and everything is beautiful!"

"Sunyay representative, Fabricio, reviewed the work to be done, a massive hole in the ceiling, with debris falling or hanging precariously. In order to avoid mold, work could not start until the ceiling area and walls had dried. Once he started, his work was great. The process took a long time, because of drying, but the end product was worth it, and he somehow matched the paint already on the walls. You would never know there had been a disaster in the bedroom. Fabricio is also rare (in a good way) because he gets back to you when you call him. He is reliable and professional. I would use him again, but I hope I don't have to!"

"I was introduced to Alfred through ServiceMagic; he was the first to call back, the first to come to give a quote, and I must say he was the most professional of all of those who did call back. He gave an extremely reasonable quote, and he began by saying, "I'm not done until you're completely satisfied". We've all heard that before, right? Well, Alfred meant it. We were moving into a foreclosure and the place was a mess. The paint on the walls was chipped and cracking, the floor, window, and door moulding were gutted and covered with nails and staples (don't even know why). We were considering replacing all the trim but Alfred said, "nah, I'll have my guys patch it.. it'll look good as new, and you'll save a lot" I have to tell you Alfred's team worked on those mouldings about 5 times, patching, sanding, painting-- until we were completely satisfied. When Alfred says he's not happy until you're happy-- he means it. The previous owner had also decided to do a lot of his own "home improvement". Well, as with many do-it-yourself-jobbers this wasn't really an improvement.. It was more like "home deprovement". They had laid tile over the hallway floor that was crooked and uneven; all the doors had been badly cut so not only did they not fit they had chips at all the edges. We got several quotes for the doors, but Alfred said, "since we're here, let me get my own guy to do it because otherwise it'll slow us down waiting for the other contractors." Alfred got a very seasoned carpentry pro to come in and replace all our doors at a lower cost than any quote we had gotten. He also had his crew peel of the tiles and (surprise) an extra layer of linoleum covering the floor. Since he knew we were planning to remodel the kitchen and bathroom he also helped us demo our existing kitchen and bathroom. The entire operation was flawless. The paint made the house look like new. And he was immaculate and attentive to every little detail of the job. Now, let me be clear-- I am a very critical person and there were some minor flaws in the carpentry-- during the summer it turns out the doors expanded and got a little sticky, and the trim, well, new is new and not new is not new. Everything looks great, though, and ultimately Alfred probably saved us about $400-$500 on the trim.. so in the end, he was definitely in the right. I would use Alfred again for any painting job. They were fast, professional, and attentive to our needs. Just make sure you communicate clearly and well; he definitely knows his stuff. And if you're unhappy, even about a little thing, make sure you voice it-- don't be shy. Alfred stands by his claim that he's not happy until you are. And as it was the middle of winter when I called him, he mentioned that he'd be back to paint our exterior door too during warmer weather. It has my pleasure to have hired him. And this way, my two little girls don't have to discover what paint chips taste like."

"Horizon Painting, Gilson Silva. Gilson stripped wallpaper from a bath and bedroom and painted the bath, bedroom and kitchen dining room. Excellent! Great quality and pride of workmanship. Very detailed, neat and clean. Came every day on time as promised. Very patient and understanding. A fair price and great value. I will definitely use him again and re commons him without hesitation. Aside from his great work, he is easy to deal with and a very nice person."

Wallpapering questions, answered by experts

If you prefer peel-and-stick to traditional wallpaper, you can skip the priming process. Many manufacturers don't require an additional primer if you’re installing peel-and-stick wallpaper to painted walls. However, if you’re applying peel-and-stick wallpaper to unfinished drywall, you’ll need to apply a primer first.

In most cases, it is not recommended to wallpaper over existing wallpaper, as the success depends on the type of paper already on the wall. While you might be able to cover non-coated wallpaper, you should never apply new wallpaper over a vinyl-coated one, which is more common. Doing so can lead to poor adhesion, resulting in bubbles, imperfections, and peeling. It can also trap moisture, potentially causing hazardous mold growth between the layers.

Even if the existing wallpaper is suitable, experts recommend applying only one new layer. Adding multiple layers (more than two total) can cause significant adhesion problems, leading to warping and bubbling. For the best results, the recommended approach is to remove the old wallpaper and all paste residue before hanging the new paper. If you are unsure about your wallpaper type, consider consulting a professional.

The two most common reasons wallpaper does not stick are a lack of preparation and improper adhesive. Be sure to use the wallpaper paste designed for the type of paper you choose. Before beginning your project, make sure the walls are clean and free of dust, grease, and oils.

Peel-and-stick wallpaper is designed to be removed without damaging walls, making it a good choice for renters or temporary design changes. However, damage to paint or drywall can occur under certain conditions. To prevent issues, the wall surface must be properly prepared before application—it should be clean, smooth, dry, and correctly primed or painted. Applying wallpaper to a freshly painted surface can cause the paint to peel off during removal. Additionally, removing the wallpaper too quickly or aggressively can also cause damage. For best results, always follow the manufacturer's instructions for both application and removal.

If you need a stronger magnetic surface, or you need to use a different type of paint in the room (like waterproof paint in a damp basement), there are other accessible options. You could fit a steel panel over the wall, try magnetic wallpaper, or apply chalk paint instead. 

If you want an inexpensive shortcut, hang a pinboard or chalkboard on your wall. These removable options are ideal if you’re a renter who can’t repaint or plan to move in the near future.
