"Sergio and his crew did a fantastic job of drywall repair and painting of our great room with 22' ceilings. Extremely professional, detail-oriented. They performed the work in a very fast timeframe, and provided excellent quality. Even their cleanup was excellent. I would recommend them for any paint job, large or small."

"This was by far one of the very best contracting experiences I have had. My home required extensive work to be done in the realm of drywall, prime, paint, and some misc. Sergio is a 5 star owner / operator. He quoted me a price and walked me through each phase of the project. His team showed up every single day Monday - Saturday, took a very short lunch break, and worked all day long. His teams craftmanship is top tier. The project was finished on time and on budget. I can't say enough great things about the timeliness and work these guys performed."

"I ordered cleaning services from Your Way as a gift. Ed contacted me promptly and set up a time for the one-time cleaning. The price was excellent. The cleaners were late arriving but well worth the job they did. I would recommend them again to a friend and the person receiving the gift is considering having Ed fix other problems in the house. Thanks!"

Wallpapering questions, answered by experts

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.

No. If you overlap seams, the wallpaper will not come out flat. In addition to possibly throwing off your pattern match between rolls, overlapping seems necessary. If wallpaper is properly acclimated, and temperature and moisture conditions are optimal during installation, there is no reason to fear shrinkage as it dries.

To pair a unique sense of style with white walls, keep them well-decorated. Hang vibrant art or bold furniture to add color to the room. Add some texture and greenery to the space with plants. Choose accent pieces such as throw pillows or light fixtures with patterns. Having a white wall can be a plus as it allows homeowners to easily decorate their homes as they desire without worrying about clashing with the paint color. 

It’s possible to hang your own wallpaper, but the process is tedious and potentially frustrating, and it can be challenging to get seams to line up and look clean and professional. Plus, depending on the type of wallpaper you’re installing, using too much or too little adhesive could cause damage to your drywall or plaster, peeling, and bubbling in the final product. It’s usually a better idea to hire a professional wallpaper installer to do the work for you, as the relatively low cost is justifiable, if only to avoid damage to your walls.

Textured or patterned vinyl wallpaper designs are the best option for hiding imperfections. Embossed designs or faux finishes like brick, wood, or linen textures are especially effective at camouflaging dents, cracks, or uneven surfaces. Avoid smooth, shiny finishes, as they can highlight flaws rather than conceal them.
