"After the initial consultation we decided to expand the job significantly to have the decks washed and painted, the exterior of the house pressure washed and painted, decaying wood trim removed and replaced, critical areas re-caulked, wall paper removed from 2 bathrooms and the dining room, those rooms plus three more rooms repainted, several water damaged ceilings repaired and repainted, one wall in the basement removed due to traces of mold and replaced and repainted, four short wooden columns outside repaired, water proofed and repainted, and a number of other small items that needed painting were also addressed. This was a huge job that was completed to our satisfaction over several weeks. That the job completion was this long was due in part to some rainy weather, to job and vacation conflicts, and to availability of necessary materials. When it was apparent that this job had grown so much that the original job completion date might be delayed, Danny marshaled extra workers and with that beehive of activity he was able to complete the job on time and to our satisfaction."

"The project went pretty well overall. Jeff removed a tissue paper covered with wall paper paste from the bathroom walls by scraping it and then mudding in the imperfections in the wall. He also removed old tiolet paper holder and towel rack and drywalled those areas. The bathroom was then repainted. The scraping created more dust than I was expecting. He cleaned up after the job, but the dust really settled into baseboards and six panel doors. We are happy with the job that was done. The price was good."

"It went great.  The walls in one bathroom were in rough shape owing to wallpaper removal efforts on my part.  I thought Pro Decor would just paint the room but they exceeded expectations with the skim coat.  The ceiling in the kitchen had a bad seam where a wall had been removed and badly patched by a contractor.  Pro Decor dug out those bad results and fixed it correctly.  It all looks great and the price was equally great."

"Two gentleman arrived promptly at the appointed time.
They painted my den.  The paint job is great, but I thought they would remove some type of sinker for some screws which the previous owner had put in the walls, and instead they just painted over them.   My husband asked them if they could paint the master bath sometime also and they said they could paint it the same day as the den was a small room and they had time.
We had already had the bathroom professionally skim coated after removing wall paper which the previous owner had in the room.  Both of us were less than pleased with the paint job done in the master bath.  Paint on the new flooring, the wood work, the cabinetry and I spent a good 8 hours removing it.  
We paid an extra $100 to the gentlemen to paint it and they did a much poorer job than in the room we had contracted to be painted.  Neither my husband nor I understand why there is such a difference in the painting of the two rooms.  
The contracted price ($89) was for one room  and to have paid more ($100) for the 2nd room which was not painted equally as well was very disappointing.

"Joel and his crew arrived promptly each day of work. Joel was not satisfied how the ceiling painting turned out and insisted upon re-doing it to make it absolutely perfect. The drywall had many imperfections and they did extensive surface prep before painting. They worked in a safe manner with tall ladders in the 2-story high areas. The crew was just as nice as can be and extremely courteous. Joel made sure that I was totally satisfied with the work before leaving. The sink where they cleaned brushes etc was left even cleaner than they found it! The walls look even better now than when the house was brand-new."

"The 2 men arrived on time and completed the work within the time frame. Repaired walls where wallpaper pulled off the drywall paper. Very fair about the time and made sure they had done the work to my satisfaction before they left."

"It was wonderful! John & Patrick met me at my sister's house. They removed the doors and loaded the fridge on to their truck. They got it to my house 4 blocks away. They unloaded it, put the doors back on and got it in place without a scratch! Perfect!"

Wallpaper Removal FAQs, answered by experts

Using a fabric softener solution is a popular and low-cost DIY method for removing wallpaper, but its effectiveness is limited. While it may work on some types of wallpaper, it is unlikely to be successful on vintage styles, and there is no evidence that it is more effective than other removal methods. There are also several potential downsides: the solution can leave behind a residue that may damage your walls or interfere with the adhesion of new wallpaper. Additionally, this method can create a strong, overpowering aroma that takes a long time to dissipate, making it a poor choice for homeowners sensitive to smells.

The cost varies from $1 to $3 per square foot, depending on the type of wallpaper, the wall condition, and the labor involved.

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.

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.

While you can remove wallpaper yourself, it is a labor-intensive process that risks damaging your walls. Common DIY methods include using a steamer to loosen the adhesive or spraying the paper with a solution of hot water and vinegar or dish soap before scraping. However, steamers can cause irreparable damage if used incorrectly, and the spray-and-scrape method can harm drywall if it gets too wet or you scrape too aggressively. For these reasons, hiring a professional is often the fastest, easiest, and safest option. A pro has the experience and specialized tools to remove wallpaper efficiently without damaging the underlying surface, which saves time and minimizes the prep work needed for your next wall treatment.
