"In my 30+ years of being a homeowner, I've hired 6-8 different painters. Now Premier Painting Group will be the only painter I hire. Cesar's crew is amazing. They are very meticulous and careful. Covered all my furniture and cabinets with either cloth or plastic. Covered the hardwood floors as well. They go above and beyond every time and their prices are excellent. They recently finished my 3 job with them and I couldn't be happier with the results. Wish I could give them 10 stars!!!"

My wife and I have used World Painting several times over the last four years in two different houses.  The most recent project was a complete makeover of the outside of our home.  We consulted with the World Painting staff on the design (two tones) and the proper colors to use.  We are very happy with the outcomes; both the appearance and the quality of workmanship.

I've lived in Litchfield since attending college at LLCC and I wanted to start this company because there was such a need for one in my own life, between moving friends and family, to moving my family into our own home, the last thing we wanted to worry about was painting, and being in a small town can make it a struggle to find an affordable and reliable painting service. That's where we come in! I am an easy-going person and I like to have fun with the process. I want my customers to know that I always put myself in my customer's shoes and treat their home like my own most of all.

Wallpaper Removal questions, answered by experts

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.

In most cases, it is not recommended to wallpaper over existing wallpaper, as the success depends on the type of paper already on the wall. While you might be able to cover non-coated wallpaper, you should never apply new wallpaper over a vinyl-coated one, which is more common. Doing so can lead to poor adhesion, resulting in bubbles, imperfections, and peeling. It can also trap moisture, potentially causing hazardous mold growth between the layers.

Even if the existing wallpaper is suitable, experts recommend applying only one new layer. Adding multiple layers (more than two total) can cause significant adhesion problems, leading to warping and bubbling. For the best results, the recommended approach is to remove the old wallpaper and all paste residue before hanging the new paper. If you are unsure about your wallpaper type, consider consulting a professional.

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.

Stubborn adhesives, multiple layers, and drywall damage can complicate removal.

We don’t recommend wallpapering over older paper. That’s because creating layers of glue can invite bubbling or excess moisture on the wall’s surface. You should also prime your wall before applying wallpaper and smooth the wall as much as you can, and another layer of wallpaper complicates this process.
