"Excellent! Moving is so stressful and working with Raphael @ Lillian Touch was a gift. Everything from start to finish went above and beyond all my expectations. The team repaired the stucco, and thoroughly cleaned off years of grime. Raphael painted many color swatches up as I tried to find just the right color. He had an additional suggestion, which we all loved and am so happy with the choice. I have heard so many compliments on the house from strangers passing by. The work was completed quickly but with great care. Trust quality. I would give them 6 stars if I could."

"Simon was very prompt in his responses and his availability and his prices were fair. He installed wallpaper to a powder room that required a lot of cutting and aligning. He did this work with precision, and it looks fantastic! He completed this project in a little less than 6 hours too!"

"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."

"4 men were here for 4 days and 3 were here on the 5th and final day. They came exactly at 7:30 AM, and left about 4:30-5:00, working constantly with only a short break for lunch. Things they did beyond their job: Shoveling snow & ice and putting salt on the steps. Taking out my garbage, 1 garbage and two recycling bags. Cleaning everything except what I said not to, because I need to sort through some stuff. Cleaning a bunch of black gunk left under some bookends on my desk Removing masking tape gunk on the 7 windows in the sun porch, ghosts of many long ago Christmases They cleaned the glass windows from every room in which they worked They cleaned 5 of my 6 ceiling fans.....why not #6? some of the things I moved prior to their arrival was stored in that room. They vacuumed the rugs in all the rooms in which they worked They vacuumed the steps going down the front hall They kept asking if I was sure there wasn't anything else I wanted them to do....."

Wallpaper Removal FAQs, answered by experts

Hiring a professional wallpaper hanger is usually a worthwhile idea because, while the application of wallpaper itself is easy, getting the finished product to look good is complicated and takes a lot of practice and patience. A professional wallpaper hanger will not only be able to hang your wallpaper seamlessly, but they will also get an even application of wallpaper paste to avoid bubbling and imperfections immediately and over time. Plus, they can provide their professional opinion on whether to remove or wallpaper over an existing layer of wallpaper.

Small amounts of wallpaper can be thrown away in your household trash. If you’re removing a whole home’s worth of wallpaper, you may need to contact a waste removal company, rent a dumpster, or schedule a special pick-up with your municipality’s waste removal service. Wallpaper isn’t recyclable, so no matter which method you choose to dispose of it, make sure it doesn’t get mixed in with the recycling.

The pros of wallpaper include its durability and longer lifespan than paint, as well as its versatility. The durability can translate to lower long-term costs for upkeep and replacement, and the versatility means you have more options for customizing rooms in your home. Some downsides include that it’s difficult to remove, it’s not ideal for rooms or areas exposed to high moisture content or sun exposure, and it’s tricky to install. A professional wallpaper hanger can help mitigate these issues, though, by installing it properly and in areas suitable for wallpaper.

Hiring a professional wallpaper remover is almost always worthwhile. Although the work is more expensive due to labor costs, doing it yourself is extremely time-consuming, complicated, and easy to make mistakes and wreak havoc on your walls, regardless of the tools you use. Professional wallpaper removers have the tools and experience to get old wallpaper down quickly and without damaging the walls behind it.

Think hard before deciding to German schmear your home’s exterior brickwork. If you do not like the look, you are pretty much stuck with it, as it is impossible to remove this finish the way you can remove paint. You risk damaging the underlying brick if you have to chisel and acid-wash it away. It will also take a very long time, and remnants of the mortar wash will always remain.
