"Honey the end result looks decent… however had we not complained repeatedly about the prep work, running paint, missing paint, graffiti looking paint, it wouldn’t look this nice. We got the impression they wanted to do half way work and get paid. Paint still needs be cleaned up in areas. Over spray on the siding. The doors were painted but the weather stripping was ripped off so now we have to replace it. Would run water over and over with no respect of who is paying the bill. Dropped a 5 gallon bucket of paint from the roof on to the driveway, getting on car, siding and driveway. Took my husband 3 hours to clean up with power washer. Additionally brought broken sprayers that he used to spray all over the grass to get to work instead of just using a box to spray on. No prep work was done on the doors and you can tell it. Paint is runs, bubbles from no sanding underneath, etc. like I said at the end it looks good on the roof, the rest I am sure we will have to redo at some point. It’s a good 10ft stand away kinda job. They are nice but if you want someone will tons of experience idk if it’s them. After all the problems he still expected full payment, he did try to fix the issues once he would see it but it could take hours for him to realize it’s that bad and then an apology text with I will come back tomorrow to fix it."

Wallpaper Removal questions, answered by experts

For the most part, peel-and-stick wallpaper doesn't damage walls. However, there may be some cases when damage does occur. For example, if you try to rip the paper off the wall, you may pull away some paint at the same time.

The walls can also be damaged if they aren't prepared properly before you add the wallpaper. For example, if the coat of paint is too fresh when you put the wallpaper on the walls, it can peel away as you remove the paper. 

Mixing fabric softener into water is a low-cost way to remove wallpaper that has been passed among DIYers for years, but it has limited success. It works on some wallpaper, but not likely on vintage styles. Also, be careful, as it could interfere with the new wallpaper’s grip power.

While it is possible to paint over wallpaper, it’s not always ideal. If the wallpaper is firmly adhered, has no bubbling or peeling, and isn’t textured, you can try to prime and paint over it. Use an oil-based primer to prevent the adhesive from bleeding through. However, if the paper is damaged or loose, removal is the better long-term solution.

Hiring a professional wallpaper hanger is usually a worthwhile idea because, while the application of wallpaper itself is easy, getting the finished product to look good is complicated and takes a lot of practice and patience. A professional wallpaper hanger will not only be able to hang your wallpaper seamlessly, but they will also get an even application of wallpaper paste to avoid bubbling and imperfections immediately and over time. Plus, they can provide their professional opinion on whether to remove or wallpaper over an existing layer of wallpaper.

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.
