"Craig was both professional and personable during a four-day plaster restoration project that remediated a water-damaged ceiling and wall. He accommodated my schedule, came on time, and took care to protect the work space. He worked efficiently, but did not try to rush through when an unexpected complication - my vintage home has extra-thick plaster - required more drying time than usual. I was impressed by his work, and would recommend him without reservation."

"Outstanding!!! Excellent workmanship. We hired them to paint the interior of our new house and we couldn’t have asked for a better quality of work. They painted the entire first and second flour except for the basement where the floors were not finished yet so we scheduled the painting of the basement for next month. They also did wallpaper removal in the powder and laundry rooms and we were amazed by the final result. The walls were in pretty bad shape under that old wallpaper but they worked on them with spackle and sanding then painted them and the final texture was so smooth and neat, nobody would have guessed there was wallpaper before. I honestly think they are the best."

Wallpapering questions, answered by experts

Once again, contact with moisture is the culprit here, though water-resistant varieties of wallpaper are less likely to become wet and develop mold. Using a high-quality exhaust fan or dehumidifier and leaving the doors or windows cracked after bathing will keep this issue at bay. 

Painting over wallpaper is an efficient way to cover it if it’s in decent shape. Before painting over wallpaper, make sure the surface is clean and smooth. You may have to remove minor problem areas, such as lifted seams or small peels, with a sheetrock knife or putty knife. Add a latex- or oil-based primer to keep moisture at bay before painting. You’ll likely need two coats of paint to cover the area.

Yes, you can apply peel-and-stick wallpaper over wood paneling, but it requires significant preparation for a good result. Peel-and-stick wallpaper has a weaker adhesive than traditional wallpaper and works best on smooth, non-textured surfaces like painted or primed drywall. Because wood paneling is often textured with grooves, any flaws in the underlying surface will likely be visible after application. To prepare the paneling, you must ensure the surface is free of cracks, holes, and protrusions by filling any indentations and sanding rough spots to create a smooth surface. An alternative is to remove the paneling and apply the wallpaper directly to the underlying drywall or plaster, provided it is in good condition.

It is less costly to paint than wallpaper when you only consider the upfront cost. Wallpaper costs $320 to $820 when applied by a pro, while paint only costs $200 to $700 per room. However, when comparing wallpaper versus paint, consider the long-term as well. Wallpaper can save you money over time since it has a much longer life span than paint.

Both paint and wallpaper can work in a bathroom, provided you choose high-quality products in either category. Washable vinyl wallpapers can stand up to bathroom humidity without peeling, as can semi-gloss or gloss paint finishes. However, if you’re someone who likes to redecorate often, paint may make it easier to change colors or designs more quickly. If you want full humidity protection and cleanability, tile or stone works better.
