"This was my first time having wallpaper in my home and Town & Country Interiors was wonderful. They helped me figure out how much to order, responded promptly and flexibly for scheduling, and were affordable for installation. I would definitely use them again for future wallpaper projects and would recommend to anyone."

"So wonderful to work with. They did the painting and wallpaper in my nursery and it came out perfectly, better than I was hoping. They made sure I ordered my wall mural with the correct dimensions and not only was the measurement spot on, but the application of the panels was seamless. Even added a cute wallpaper detail to my light switch cover AND put the crib in the room together. Would absolutely work with again"

"Michael and his assistant, Jose, did a superb job painting and wallpapering a study and bathroom. My husband said it was the best wallpapering job he'd ever seen. We used a difficult pattern and he matched it perfectly, even when we were down to our last wallpaper ends, trying to finish a spot above a door. They were prompt, worked a full 8-5 day, and were as unobtrusive as possible while working. We highly recommend him."

"I had one room completely blueboarded with new plaster and then painted. I would give that a 10. I also had a hallway ceiling replastered and painted. Also a 10. I wanted to paint the walls in the stairwell which had wallpaper. Contractor chose to remove the wallpaper and paint instead of new plaster. The walls weren't in great shape and the painters didn't smooth some bad patch work so I had some areas that don't look great. When I pointed them out and expressed unhappiness, he simply said "Bad walls." So I'd go with a 7 for the stairwell. Overall good job."

"Erick is a consummate professional: he takes pride in his craftsmanship, is unfailingly polite, and exemplary in his communication. Each day, he would make sure I knew when he would arrive, and at the end of the day, he would send me a progress report with pictures. Even though I did not ask, he power-washed my deck and replaced a broken vent flap, which was greatly appreciated. I will think of Erick for all future painting projects and refer him to friends and family members."

"Seriously, look no further, Jimmy is your guy! Jimmy recently wallpapered our dining room, and we couldn't be happier with the results. Ill start by saying particular does not come close to describing my level of attention to detail. Our wallpaper pattern is intricate and required a plan to get it right. Jimmy took the time to discuss areas which might be of concern before getting started. For example, we have about an inch of clearance below crown molding and above the window trim. Jimmy was incredibly patient, even changing out a strip that I was focusing on. Seriously, it is perfect, I could not find a pattern issue even if I tried. Jimmy went above and beyond papering our simple white light switch covers. The compliments are pouring in! Not only was Jimmy professional, arriving on time, using his own tools and supplies, and straightening up at the end of the day, but he was very personable. He was so kind teaching me about his craft and we had great conversations about Ireland. His rates are very competitive. Of note, I had already obtained the paper before hiring Jimmy. He came to our home and completed the job in one day."

Wallpapering questions, answered by experts

Walls should be as smooth as possible before applying peel-and-stick wallpaper. Although you technically can apply wallpaper on textured walls, the peel-and-stick variety won’t last long without a clean, smooth surface for the adhesive to stick to. If you have textured walls, consult a pro about removing the textured finish before moving forward with wallpaper.

Textured or patterned vinyl wallpaper designs are the best option for hiding imperfections. Embossed designs or faux finishes like brick, wood, or linen textures are especially effective at camouflaging dents, cracks, or uneven surfaces. Avoid smooth, shiny finishes, as they can highlight flaws rather than conceal them. 

The color of the paint, its opacity, and the depth of the texture on the paper all affect how many coats of paint you need to apply to paintable wallpaper. You'll need at least two coats of paint to ensure even coverage. Don’t be surprised if you need to apply three coats if the embossing is very deep or if you use a dark color.

When choosing materials for finishing basement walls, consider factors such as moisture resistance, durability, and fire resistance. Opt for materials specifically designed for basement environments, like moisture-resistant drywall or cement board. Insulation with vapor barriers can help regulate temperature and prevent condensation. Consider using mold-resistant paints or coatings. 

Research and consult with experts to select materials that are suitable for your specific basement conditions and intended use. Prioritize quality and compatibility to achieve long-lasting and aesthetically pleasing results.

No, you don’t need to apply paint primer to your wall before hanging paintable wallpaper. Manufacturers design paintable wallpaper so that the paint will adhere effectively, so primer isn’t necessary. Plus, even if you opt for a light shade of paint, you won’t have to worry about the shade underneath showing through because you are painting on a light, white surface.
