Walter and crew did a great job removing popcorn ceiling. The repairs, skimming and painting were perfect. Will definitely use him for any future projects. I highly recommend Multicolor Painting & Handyman Service.

"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."

"Two sides of my house in Chatham are exposed to the sun all day long and the sold stain has shown a lot of cracking after only 4 years. Fernando sanded the two sides of the house down to bare wood and put a primer and finish solid stain on. It is a lot of work and what he charges is reasonable. He is on the job himself everyday and the result came out very nicely. He takes pride in his work and I am glad I found him on line, after checking his references."

Wallpaper Removal questions, answered by experts

Once again, contact with moisture is the culprit here, though water-resistant varieties of wallpaper are less likely to become wet and develop mold. Using a high-quality exhaust fan or dehumidifier and leaving the doors or windows cracked after bathing will keep this issue at bay.

Wallpaper steamers can be very helpful for removing large sections of wallpaper more easily, but they’re not always a good idea for DIYers. The drywall behind your wallpaper is meant to stay dry, and excessive moisture from improper technique with a wallpaper steamer can leave you with severe wall damage. Drywall also retains moisture, which could result in mold growth over time. It’s best to hire a professional to remove your wallpaper with a steamer to avoid wall damage and related moisture issues.

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.

The average cost to install or hang wallpaper is around $575 per room or project, with typical prices ranging from $200 to $1,500. Costs can be higher for custom or luxury products. Since project size varies, it's often helpful to estimate labor costs per square foot, which generally fall between $1 and $7, with an average of $4 per square foot. The total cost depends on several factors, including the quality and type of wallpaper, the size and type of the room, and whether old wallpaper must be removed first. Opting for less expensive materials like peel-and-stick wallpaper or choosing to do the installation yourself can lower the overall cost. For the most accurate estimate, it is best to have a professional inspect the space and provide a quote.

Costs depend on wallpaper type, wall condition, labor, and necessary repairs.
