"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."

"VERY great job done by Gus. He was able to come out and install our wallpaper within a few days of me calling him. He was on time, very professional, and did an AMAZING job on our custom wallpaper. I will definitely be hiring him for future jobs and we are thrilled with his work."

"Offered same-day estimate, was easy to schedule the work. Removed wallpaper and painted room in the same day. I purchased the paint and paid for other needed materials, which presented an additional cost over the initial quote. Very courteous and did a good job cleaning up after the work was complete."

"A neighbor recommended JMC Painting. I had only a small job, a portion of trim was peeling, but they were willing to do the small job. The peeling in that section has been a recurring problem, but now it looks better than it’s ever looked."

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.

"Said and his crew were great!  They came right on time and got to business.  The moved and removed all of my furniture and wall hangings, curtains etc. Painted the rooms and put everything back.  They went above and beyond when I asked them to paint my sons room with two racing stripes over the grey paint I chose.  We ended up hiring them to paint a few additional rooms and a ceiling. The house look so beautiful.  I love it all over again.

Edson was very responsive after I left a message. I needed to rush and have the work done immediately and Edson made this happen. His crew, Fernando, did a great job to remove the wallpaper, skim-coat, and paint the living room. I was very happy with the work and I will go back to Edson the next time I need to do a paint job.

"My rental property is an 1865 house. Most of the rooms have been updated but one room was in poor condition. The old plaster was loose and bulging in multiple places and the ceiling was one foot square tiles nailed to strapping. The owner, Rodolfo, came out to the house and took a good look at the project and then gave me an estimate. He conducted himself like a professional and also of the four estimates that I received his was the best, so we contracted his services. His foreman, Jose, ran the job and was an absolute pleasure to work with. In the past, I've always chosen plaster over drywall, but when Jose finished the work it was as good as any plaster I've ever seen. There were tenants in the house which can be a problem, but Jose made sure the dust and debris did not overflow into the rest of the house. He was respectful to the tenants and his work was outstanding. As a landlord of thirty years I've seen many contractors and I was very impressed with their work and the price. When they left the ceiling and walls looked like new and everything was freshly painted. Great Job!

Wallpaper Removal questions, answered by experts

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.

Small amounts of wallpaper can be thrown away in your household trash. If you’re removing a whole home’s worth of wallpaper, you may need to contact a waste removal company, rent a dumpster, or schedule a special pick-up with your municipality’s waste removal service. Wallpaper isn’t recyclable, so no matter which method you choose to dispose of it, make sure it doesn’t get mixed in with the recycling.

One of the biggest downsides to peel-and-stick wallpaper is that it doesn't last as long as traditional wallpaper. Its lifespan depends on several factors, including the quality of the paper, proper wall preparation and application, and the room's conditions. As a general rule, peel-and-stick wallpaper can last for at least five years, but this can vary significantly. Budget products may only last about 3 years, while higher-quality products can stay up for 7 years or more in ideal conditions. Factors that can shorten its lifespan include high humidity (such as in a bathroom), dirty walls, and low-quality paper. If used on flooring, expect it to last only 1 to 3 years unless sealed. However, the shorter lifespan can be seen as a positive, making it a great choice for people who enjoy switching up their interiors more frequently.

Yes, many types of peel-and-stick wallpaper can be used in bathrooms, especially those made of vinyl or polyester. However, its success depends heavily on the level of moisture and ventilation. In bathrooms with good ventilation, such as those with fans, it can be a durable option. Peel-and-stick wallpaper may not adhere as well as traditional wallpaper in very humid conditions. For bathrooms that see a lot of moisture, like a kids' bathroom or a full bath with a steamy shower and poor ventilation, even high-quality peel-and-stick wallpaper is likely to peel over time.

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.
