Is it cheaper to paint or wallpaper?

• <div><p>It is less costly to paint than wallpaper when you only consider the upfront cost. Wallpaper costs <b>$320 to $820</b> when applied by a pro, while paint only costs <b>$200 to $700 per room</b>. However, when comparing <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/pros-and-cons-wallpaper-vs-paint.htm">wallpaper versus paint</a>, consider the long-term as well. Wallpaper can save you money over time since it has a much longer life span than paint.</p></div>

Should I wallpaper over old wallpaper?

• <div><p>We don’t recommend wallpapering over older paper. That’s because creating layers of glue can invite bubbling or excess moisture on the wall’s surface. You should also prime your wall before applying wallpaper and smooth the wall as much as you can, and another layer of wallpaper complicates this process.</p></div>

Q: What’s a good alternative to a magnetic paint wall?

• <div><p>If you need a stronger magnetic surface, or you need to use a different type of paint in the room (like <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/waterproof-paint.htm">waterproof paint</a> 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. </p><p>If you want an inexpensive shortcut, hang a pinboard or chalkboard on your wall. These removable options are ideal if you&rsquo;re a renter who can&rsquo;t repaint or plan to move in the near future.</p></div>

Q: Can I use peel-and-stick wallpaper to prevent future damage?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/is-peel-and-stick-wallpaper-removable.htm">Peel-and-stick wallpaper</a> is designed to be removed cleanly without damaging paint or drywall&mdash;as long as the surface was properly primed or painted beforehand. Its ease of removal makes it a great choice for renters or anyone who wants a less permanent design choice. Be sure to apply it to a clean, smooth, and dry surface for optimal results. </p></div>

Q: Why is my wallpaper not sticking to the wall?

• <div><p>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. </p></div>

David was excellent to work with. He did what he said he would do, when he said he would do it, for the price he quoted. His work was very good and he left the worksite very clean. He was easy to communicate with by e-mail, text or cell phone (706-302-3780).

Barnard Painting came in to assist the painter I had hired who fell ill. They performed the work timely and professionally. Moved furniture, took down pictures and window treatments & rehung. I will use them in the future when I get ready to have the outside totally painted.

I really did not have any problem when I bought wallpapers from Brunswick Floor because the very first time I went to them, I had no experience at all with wallpaper. Because they knew that, they suggested that I get one that I did not have to necessarily design for, and it turned out real...

Owner of Ganka came over and gave a fair quote of $150 so I hired him with the stipulation that the repair look as close to the original as possible so the patch would match the rest of the ceiling. He said it would, so I agreed. His guys came over and made the patch and then asked me to look at...

First, pinning them down to actually come work was horrendous. I had to threaten to get someone else before they showed up to do the inside work. And even then, I never knew if there would be 1 painter or 5. I know for a fact that there are several really good painters in this company but I...
