"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!"

"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."

"It went very well, they started on my preferred date and worked 6 days a week for 2 weeks to complete the job. I had expected it to take at least two weeks. They were punctual, polite, friendly, and thorough. It was 20 years since it was last painted so there was a lot of prep work that was needed. They also had to remove wallpaper from 6 rooms, prepare the surface, then repaint. I was very satisfied with the results."

Wallpapering questions, answered by experts

If you can already see the texture of the existing wallpaper through the layer of paint, then the texture could also come through the new layer of wallpaper. If that’s the aesthetic you want, then proceed. But if you want a smoother surface, you should either strip off the existing paint and wallpaper or hang a layer of liner paper before proceeding.

The average cost to install or hang wallpaper is around $575 per room or project, with typical prices ranging from $200 to $1,500. Costs can be higher for custom or luxury products. Since project size varies, it's often helpful to estimate labor costs per square foot, which generally fall between $1 and $7, with an average of $4 per square foot. The total cost depends on several factors, including the quality and type of wallpaper, the size and type of the room, and whether old wallpaper must be removed first. Opting for less expensive materials like peel-and-stick wallpaper or choosing to do the installation yourself can lower the overall cost. For the most accurate estimate, it is best to have a professional inspect the space and provide a quote.

While peel-and-stick wallpapers require no time to cure, the adhesives for other types of papers will take a day or two to dry and up to three weeks to fully cure. The differences are the type of paper, the type of adhesive, and the humidity and temperature in the space. 

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.

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.
