"Chicagoland Precision Painting came by and looked at the job. Jason Cortez was good, he came by. He was very attentive and called me back later to check how things were. He was very flexible. I would have hired him if I hadn't done the work myself. He was prompt and explained everything in detail."

"Chris, the owner, came out to give me an estimate before the work. He was on time, very professional, and knowledgeable about the work. He provided a written estimate for the work to be performed, and his estimate was on the high side of the 4 estimates I received. He was also able to give me an approximate amount for additional wood repair or replacement which I wanted done at the same time. Although I did not negotiate much with him on price because of his excellent reviews and the fact that although his price was the highest, it was still in the ballpark of the other estimates, and Chris was willing to match other service, warranty or additional work offered by the other service providers I received estimates from. The project went well. One to three men showed up on time over a few day period to power wash, scrape, repair or replace wood and prep for the job. They were all polite and professional and cleaned up at the end of each day. Chris was always available by phone or if requested in person to answer any questions. Chris worked with us in picking out the colors, and he is very knowledgeable in all aspects of the painting trade. A few extra items were required to be repaired which were discovered during progress of the job, and which was again handled in stride by Chris' team. The actual painting was again done on time and professionally. 2 to 4 men worked each day until the job was completed. Again the team was polite and professional. The job came out beautiful. I reviewed and inspected at the end of the job for any missed items or other issues and they were all addressed immediately. The final amount paid was as originally agreed to. You can trust this company to do professional work including in affluent areas where the level of service is expected to be done to a high standard. I have been in this house for 15 years and have had it painted every 5 years. This was by far the best job done compared with any of my past painters. I cannot give enough praise or say enough positive things about Chris and CQ painting. I also trust, based on his responsiveness and professionalism, that he will as stated, stand behind his work 100% if necessary. You cannot go wrong with this guy or his company and I will definitely use CQ Painting again."

Wallpapering questions, answered by experts

Peel-and-stick wallpaper is designed to be removed without damaging walls, making it a good choice for renters or temporary design changes. However, damage to paint or drywall can occur under certain conditions. To prevent issues, the wall surface must be properly prepared before application—it should be clean, smooth, dry, and correctly primed or painted. Applying wallpaper to a freshly painted surface can cause the paint to peel off during removal. Additionally, removing the wallpaper too quickly or aggressively can also cause damage. For best results, always follow the manufacturer's instructions for both application and removal.

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.

While many types of peel-and-stick wallpaper can be used in bathrooms, they may not adhere as well in humid environments as traditional wallpaper. For best results, choose a vinyl or polyester-based wallpaper, as these materials are more durable and water-resistant. Good ventilation is also crucial to reduce humidity from steamy showers. In bathrooms with high moisture and inadequate ventilation, even high-quality peel-and-stick wallpaper is likely to peel over time.

No, you don’t need to apply paint primer to your wall before hanging paintable wallpaper. Manufacturers design paintable wallpaper so that the paint will adhere effectively, so primer isn’t necessary. Plus, even if you opt for a light shade of paint, you won’t have to worry about the shade underneath showing through because you are painting on a light, white surface.

Textured or patterned vinyl wallpaper designs are the best option for hiding imperfections. Embossed designs or faux finishes like brick, wood, or linen textures are especially effective at camouflaging dents, cracks, or uneven surfaces. Avoid smooth, shiny finishes, as they can highlight flaws rather than conceal them.
