"We recently had our large front porch painted as well as the frames around several doors and the garage. Pablo’s assistant Eduardo did a fantastic job. Beautiful results and no mess! This is the seventh project that has been done by them. Cannot recommend more highly!"

"Kyle had to go to the attic for installing our exhaust fans. He found out that it was not vented to the outside. Our home is 35 yrs old. so he talked to us and told us this which we thought was the problem with humidity in the bathrooms. so he asked if he should vent the exhaust fans outside. We said absolutely. He did a great job and no more issues in either bathroom. then he had some cedar siding that is warped and asked him to replace a few boards. so he stained them and replaced. The siding looks so so much better. We ordered more siding and waiting for it come in so we can have Kyle come out and replace more warped boards. Plus he fixed out falling mailbox do to plow hitting it. He did a great job."

Wallpapering FAQs, answered by experts

While peel-and-stick wallpapers require no time to cure, the adhesives for other types of papers will take a day or two to dry and up to three weeks to fully cure. The differences are the type of paper, the type of adhesive, and the humidity and temperature in the space. 

Your peel-and-stick wallpaper can fall off for multiple reasons, including high humidity levels, extreme temperature changes, poor installation, and even the wall surface. Textured walls can prevent the adhesive from fully sticking to the wall, making it more likely for the wallpaper to peel off. Low-quality wallpapers with weaker adhesives are also more likely to fall off prematurely.

The average cost to install or hang wallpaper is around $575 per room or project, with typical prices ranging from $200 to $1,500. Costs can be higher for custom or luxury products. Since project size varies, it's often helpful to estimate labor costs per square foot, which generally fall between $1 and $7, with an average of $4 per square foot. The total cost depends on several factors, including the quality and type of wallpaper, the size and type of the room, and whether old wallpaper must be removed first. Opting for less expensive materials like peel-and-stick wallpaper or choosing to do the installation yourself can lower the overall cost. For the most accurate estimate, it is best to have a professional inspect the space and provide a quote.

If you prefer peel-and-stick to traditional wallpaper, you can skip the priming process. Many manufacturers don't require an additional primer if you’re installing peel-and-stick wallpaper to painted walls. However, if you’re applying peel-and-stick wallpaper to unfinished drywall, you’ll need to apply a primer first.

No, you don’t always have to remove old wallpaper before applying a new layer. However, you should pull off the existing wallpaper if it’s cracked, peeling, or in poor condition. We’d also recommend against putting wallpaper over textured or dark-colored wallpaper because the old layer may be visible through the new one. In addition, if you try to hang new wallpaper over vinyl-coated wallpaper, the adhesive might not stick properly.
