"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

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.

Yes, you can apply peel-and-stick wallpaper over wood paneling, but it requires significant preparation for a good result. Peel-and-stick wallpaper has a weaker adhesive than traditional wallpaper and works best on smooth, non-textured surfaces like painted or primed drywall. Because wood paneling is often textured with grooves, any flaws in the underlying surface will likely be visible after application. To prepare the paneling, you must ensure the surface is free of cracks, holes, and protrusions by filling any indentations and sanding rough spots to create a smooth surface. An alternative is to remove the paneling and apply the wallpaper directly to the underlying drywall or plaster, provided it is in good condition.

No. If you overlap seams, the wallpaper will not come out flat. In addition to possibly throwing off your pattern match between rolls, overlapping seems necessary. If wallpaper is properly acclimated, and temperature and moisture conditions are optimal during installation, there is no reason to fear shrinkage as it dries.

One of the biggest downsides to peel-and-stick wallpaper is that it doesn't last as long as traditional wallpaper. Its lifespan depends on several factors, including the quality of the paper, proper wall preparation and application, and the room's conditions. As a general rule, peel-and-stick wallpaper can last for at least five years, but this can vary significantly. Budget products may only last about 3 years, while higher-quality products can stay up for 7 years or more in ideal conditions. Factors that can shorten its lifespan include high humidity (such as in a bathroom), dirty walls, and low-quality paper. If used on flooring, expect it to last only 1 to 3 years unless sealed. However, the shorter lifespan can be seen as a positive, making it a great choice for people who enjoy switching up their interiors more frequently.

When comparing peel-and-stick and traditional wallpaper, the better choice depends on your specific needs and space. Peel-and-stick wallpaper is more budget-friendly and easier to DIY install. On the other hand, traditional wallpaper lasts much longer and holds up better in a wider variety of spaces, including areas with moisture like kitchens and bathrooms.
