"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."

"John was fantastic. Was able to come out on short notice and take care of the wallpaper removal. He was very fairly priced, knowledgable and provided me feedback and tips for painting the room once the wallpaper was removed."

"Ross is the best, a true craftsman. He took great care with delicate hand painted wallpaper that required precision alignment. He prepared the walls thoroughly prior to applying the wallpaper. The results were outstanding."

"The work performed exceeded expectations, the painting was superior and the painters were very responsive and took pride in their work, ensuring no mess was left behind at the end of each day. Price is slightly above average; but you get what you paid for (and more)! I highly recommend CQ Painting and it's owner, Chris."

Wallpaper Removal questions, answered by experts

Many peel-and-stick wallpapers aren’t moisture-resistant, so if you install them in high-humidity rooms, mold can grow behind the wallpaper. It’s best to reserve peel-and-stick wallpaper for bedrooms, living rooms, and other rooms with lower humidity levels. Not only does this minimize the risk of mold growth, but it also keeps the wallpaper from bubbling or peeling.

If you can already see the texture of the existing wallpaper through the layer of paint, then the texture could also come through the new layer of wallpaper. If that’s the aesthetic you want, then proceed. But if you want a smoother surface, you should either strip off the existing paint and wallpaper or hang a layer of liner paper before proceeding.

Prime and repaint walls after removal to ensure a clean, finished surface.

Yes, most professionals patch and smooth walls after removal to prepare for new finishes.

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.
