"Travis and his team did a wonderful job transforming my brother-in-law's home to get it ready to sell. The home was older and hadn't been painted since 1979, there was original wallpaper to remove and the cabinets really needed to be replaced. Being from out of state, we didn't have time for a complete remodel, and were delighted when Travis agreed to paint all of the cabinets in the home and garage in his original quote. The house looked absolutely terrific when it was done (see the dramatic before and after of the kitchen cabinets as well as the rest of the "after" photos uploaded). Travis was a pleasure to work with; he always picked up the phone when we'd call, and returned emails promptly. His team was punctual, friendly and accommodating of all of our requests. They were able to finish a day earlier for us, too; by working very late several days on the job, which we truly appreciated, as we had carpet, blinds and tile work to be done within the week following the interior painting. We've had many compliments on the exterior and roof painting by people passing by; a couple stopped to request the name of our painter! Travis is without a doubt the most professional painter I've ever met; he has unwavering commitment to quality and most of all, customer satisfaction. We highly recommend Premier Painting."

"Tibi did a great job. He was on time, careful of my shrubs, was considerate enough to make sure the dirt and debris was washed into the street drain gutters, and rinsed doors and walls splashed with cleaning solution off with water before he left."

Wallpaper Removal questions, answered by experts

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.

As long as the surface you’re putting the tile on is properly prepped, peel-and-stick backsplashes should stay on and last anywhere from 3 to 5 years. The best way to ensure the tile stays on is to sand down and clean the wall before applying your design.

To remove pre-pasted wallpaper, you’ll need to wet the wallpaper or steam it to loosen the paste on the back of the wallpaper. Spray the paper with water, then let it soak for 10 to 20 minutes. From there, you should be able to peel off the wallpaper. Then, you may need to follow up with a cleaning solution and a scraper to remove any remaining wallpaper paste on the walls.

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.

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.
