"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."

"Mercy painting was very professional and detailed on communication. They provided us with options and recommendations for our dining room and bathroom walls. We ended up doing patterned wallpaper for dining room and new color on bathroom walls. Manager was very polite and pleasure to have in our home. He explained everything he was doing."

"Jay and his team at Discovery Home Improvement were outstanding in every way - friendly, professional, hard working . . The project was primarily exterior painting of a five bed -room house and carpentry work as a preliminary to the painting - a garage window and a basement window needed replacing, along with exterior woodwork and window sill repair. We are incredibly happy with the results and hope to have Jay return to work on the interior of the home."

"We had Mercy Painting come out to repair and repaint some water damage on our ceiling from an old leak in our roof. Erick and his team were incredibly responsive, available to complete our job on very short notice, and did an incredible job, both with the painting, as well as clean up. They were also very reasonably priced, and very efficient; Erick came out for an estimate the day after I submitted a request, and were able to come out just a few days later, and completed the job in just a couple of hours. Would highly recommend them for any painting job you have coming up!"

"Erik was a pleasure to work with for our primary bedroom wallpaper project. I initially messaged him on a Friday evening and he responded immediately. He was able to give me an estimate right away based on photos and measurements I provided. His communication throughout the project was among the most prompt and professional I've ever encountered in a home reno project. The work he did was flawless. Our bedroom looks beautiful. Will definitely hire him again. Thank you, Erik!"

Wallpaper Removal FAQs, answered by experts

The average cost to remove wood paneling is $2,800, but total costs may be higher or lower depending on the size of the room, your location, and the amount of prep work required. Once the paneling is gone, you may have additional costs depending on the condition of the wall beneath.

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

White walls are considered a classic and timeless look and will most likely always be in style. A white wall easily blends into any type of home decor style which makes it a suitable option for most homeowners. Another appealing quality about white walls is that if it's not a color someone is going for, the color is easy to paint over.

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.

Painting over wood paneling is an option that can save you money and time. However, if you go this route, the style and texture of the wood you paint over will still be evident. Painting over paneling is an excellent way to modernize an otherwise outdated aesthetic. Instead of removing wood panels, consider painting them a bright color–like white or ivory. This is essentially wainscoting, but without any of the required installation.
