"The team did a great job! They arrived promptly as planned and quickly removed the wallpaper. They cleaned the walls and repainted. The results look great - very clean and neat. They finished the job quickly, were polite and personable, and I would definitely hire them again. Thank you"

"MNM did an excellent job hanging wallpaper in our nursery. The wallpaper looks terrific and there were some difficult parts to the job. MNM was easy to deal with at a reasonable price and handled everything very well. I would hire them again."

"Our experience with 360° Painting was perfect from start to finish. The owner, Mike, made time to come quote the job shortly after receiving our request and did a great job helping us understand what would work best for the intricate, compact, well-lit space where errors or carelessness would be super noticeable. We felt at ease after meeting with Mike and believed that his team would do a fantastic job. Leading up to the scheduled painting date, Mike checked in to make sure the painter, Jose, and we had everything we needed to ensure we were prepared and that all would go smoothly. The job itself took 2 days and Mike stopped by mid-way through to make sure everything was going well. He also walked the job with us after it was complete to confirm that we were happy with the end results. His communication was so thorough and really made us feel certain that we had hired the right company. Jose did an incredible job with the painting itself - he is clearly a highly capable, detail-oriented, meticulous, but still efficient painter. He is a very nice man, extremely professional and took good care of our home while he was working here. A huge bonus was that Mike was able to squeeze us in before the holiday, which was so helpful given that we'll have guests. We've been putting off painting this room for an embarrassingly long time due to the level of detail required and our concern that it wouldn't come out well, but now wish we'd hired 360° Painting much sooner. Thank you to Mike and Jose for a wonderful experience - we couldn't possibly be more thrilled with how the room looks and can't wait to share it with our guests very soon. We will definitely use 360° again and will happily refer them to family, friends & neighbors. If you're looking for a highly competent painter and a fantastic customer experience, hire Mike and his team immediately!"

Wallpapering questions, answered by experts

Yes, many installation and painting services include wall preparation, such as patching holes, smoothing surfaces, sanding, and priming. It is recommended to confirm the specific preparations included with your provider.

White walls are considered a classic and timeless look and will most likely always be in style. A white wall easily blends into any type of home decor style which makes it a suitable option for most homeowners. Another appealing quality about white walls is that if it's not a color someone is going for, the color is easy to paint over.

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.

In most cases, it is not recommended to wallpaper over existing wallpaper, as the success depends on the type of paper already on the wall. While you might be able to cover non-coated wallpaper, you should never apply new wallpaper over a vinyl-coated one, which is more common. Doing so can lead to poor adhesion, resulting in bubbles, imperfections, and peeling. It can also trap moisture, potentially causing hazardous mold growth between the layers.

Even if the existing wallpaper is suitable, experts recommend applying only one new layer. Adding multiple layers (more than two total) can cause significant adhesion problems, leading to warping and bubbling. For the best results, the recommended approach is to remove the old wallpaper and all paste residue before hanging the new paper. If you are unsure about your wallpaper type, consider consulting a professional.

Yes, many types of peel-and-stick wallpaper can be used in bathrooms, especially those made of vinyl or polyester. However, its success depends heavily on the level of moisture and ventilation. In bathrooms with good ventilation, such as those with fans, it can be a durable option. Peel-and-stick wallpaper may not adhere as well as traditional wallpaper in very humid conditions. For bathrooms that see a lot of moisture, like a kids' bathroom or a full bath with a steamy shower and poor ventilation, even high-quality peel-and-stick wallpaper is likely to peel over time.
