"SJ Coverup did a great job putting up wallpaper in our dining room and on an accent wall in our family room. They were very professional, responsive, and did great work. This was our first wallpapering job and I was a little concerned on how well everything would line up with the pattern. We were beyond impressed with how it came out. We plan to wallpaper our powder room and would definitely hire these guys again."

"I had removed the tile backsplash which left the wall damaged, and selected a contractor, but I received multiple calls from other contractors but not the one I selected. The site gives you the impression you can select a specific company, but you get everyone except the one selected. I find their site to be misleading. I finally chose Master Plastering Services Inc. (Marcio Morais Jr). The manager came by to quote the job and told me they would install sheetrock and plaster. So, I removed all the decorative molding under the cabinets and pushed out all the electrical boxes to allow for the sheetrock. When the plasters arrived, they told me they would not be installing sheetrock. This was upsetting, to say the least, because the sheetrock would have filled in the area where I removed the decorative molding which could not be reinstalled. Then above the sink, they started to peel off the wallpaper which was not part of the quote. If that was not enough before they left, they pointed out that they did not have a trowel to fit between the wall and electrical box so I would need to fix that myself or have the painter repair it. Again, not happy. Lastly, after the snow melted I found a clump of plaster dumped on my lawn. I would not recommend this company."

"I am still in awe and cannot believe how beautiful my home came out, Justin was an extremely profesional individual and it literally was one of the easiest experiences of my life. The man came in and came out before I knew it. I wish I had more of my home to paint because I would hire him in a heartbeat( I’m sure my children will be painting the walls soon with some crayons). My wife was very happy with the results. Thank you Justin for making what can be a very excruciating time a very easy and hassle free process."

"Cobra Painting was very professional. We had a quote from another person who had done work for us before but had to drop out. I contacted Ron from from Cobra Painting and he and Larry came over the next day a Friday, to see the the room and received a quote as promised, on Monday. We, accepted and they came that Friday and completed the job in one day. They caulked both windows put made the base board flush with the wall that was to be papered. The also called all the nail holes in the wood work and sanded. They did a great job putting up the wallpaper and the painting. I am very particular about pattern matching and the wallpaper looks great. The cleaned up after themselves and left the floor cleaner than the found it."

"I used Paulo to do the interior work on my old house. The interior had a ton of trim work as you can see in the before and after photos . They were courteous, professional, wore masks and althoufh they took longer than anticipated, you can very easily tell the company cares about their work. It showed . Rather than just slap paint on the wall , they did everything they could to level the ceiling with plaster and hand sand the trim work and revarnish it . They’re doing the master bedroom as well as the master bathroom and I would not hesitate to recommend them what so ever . There is no rush and his attention to detail is amazing. Paulo was great with helping us with paint suggestions as we had no idea where to even start"

Arthur answered my query within a day. Celso was out to look at requirements and prepare a quote with another couple of days.

Ede came in and removed all cabinet doors and drawers and took them to the Bright shop for prep work and spay painting.

Ede and Sam came back with the doors and drawers and worked very hard for 2 days, taping, covering priming sanding  and finishing. The doors and drawers were re-installed and the entire area thoroughly cleaned.

We could not be happier. The guys took off their shoes while in the house, were friendly and could not do enough for us. There was one minor issue that was my fault and they came back within a day and took care of it.

Wallpaper Removal FAQs, answered by experts

No, you don’t always have to remove old wallpaper before applying a new layer. However, you should pull off the existing wallpaper if it’s cracked, peeling, or in poor condition. We’d also recommend against putting wallpaper over textured or dark-colored wallpaper because the old layer may be visible through the new one. In addition, if you try to hang new wallpaper over vinyl-coated wallpaper, the adhesive might not stick properly. 

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.

If you’re installing new wallpaper and have leftover glue, you can remove unused wallpaper paste from the bucket or pan it’s in by letting it dry. If it’s an oil-based paste, seal it in a plastic bag and throw it in the garbage. Otherwise, toss the leftover wallpaper paste in the trash. Although it’s water-soluble, don’t rinse unused wallpaper paste down the sink because it could dry in the pipes and cause a blockage.

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.

Yes, you can pay someone to strip wallpaper. Before you hang new wallpaper, you should hire a local wallpaper removal service to prep the surface properly. Wallpaper removal pros cost $0.55 to $1.50 per square foot or $500 to $700 per room. Prices vary by room size and removal technique, as some options are more labor-intensive.
