"Initial phone call went well.  Steve Schaaf showed up as agreed to look and estimate and said he would send an estimate via email in five days.  Five days came and went.  After I contacted him again, he wrote back and said:
"...thank you for the nice visit last week. We would be doing you a
dis-service by removing your bedroom wall this time of the year . We are
also booked to well after the first of the year . We certainly
understand if you wish to contact someone else, otherwise if you wish to
talk again next spring please give us a call. Our sincere best regards,
Steve/Goodneighbors ."
I can understand if a contractor is too busy to take on new work, but I was a little perturbed that he did not bother to estimate the job.  It gives me the impression that didn't consider it lucrative enough to bother with.

"T.N.C. Painting did an excellent job of wallpaper removal, painting and assorted other handyman jobs for me this month, May 2016. Brian is very personable and professional. He and his team are very easy to work with. Brian has expertise in many areas of handyman activities. He also installed two sliding glass door enclosures for a tub and shower stall for me. He is a man of integrity who takes pride in a job well done. I can highly recommend his company to anyone looking for handyman jobs around their house or condo. On a scale of 1-10, I would rate his company a 10. His bid was lower than the other 4 handyman companies I contacted from Angie’s List. Some were thousands of dollars higher. I would use him again in the future for any handyman needs I might have. To repeat, he did an excellent job for me in a timely manner at a fair price."

Wallpaper Removal questions, answered by experts

To remove adhesive-backed wallpaper, you’ll need to soften the adhesive before you try peeling the wallpaper off the walls. You may wonder whether peel-and-stick wallpaper damages walls. It can depend on the removal method. Make sure to be patient and consider using a steamer, hair dryer, or adhesive remover to carefully take down adhesive-backed wallpaper.

While it is possible to paint over wallpaper, it is generally better to remove it first to guarantee a smooth, professional finish. Painting over wallpaper can save time, but it may lead to issues if not done correctly.

You can paint over existing wallpaper if it is in excellent condition: smooth, non-textured, clean, and firmly adhered to the wall. Ensure there are no bumps, tears, or peeling areas, and that all corners and seams are securely glued down. You might also consider painting over wallpaper if removing it would damage the underlying wall. Additionally, some wallpapers are specifically designed to be paintable, which can add texture to a room.

However, there are risks. If the wallpaper is textured, damaged, or peeling, these imperfections will show through the new paint. The moisture from the paint can also loosen the wallpaper's adhesive, causing it to bubble and potentially damage the wall. To mitigate these issues, clean the surface thoroughly and use an oil-based primer to help the paint adhere and prevent the old adhesive from bleeding through.

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.

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.

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.
