"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"

"House looks and feels great. Gene and his team of painters did an outstanding job repainting the interior of my house. Everything was performed efficiently and with a high degree of workmanship. Any comments I had with regards to portions of the job which I felt needed to be changed were welcomed. Painting was done right. Any wall hangings / mirrors which could have been taken down prior to painting were taken care of to ensure a consistent result in all rooms painted. The entire job was priced very reasonably while not sacrificing any time to completion or quality of result. I would definitely choose Target Painting again should the occasion arise.

"My wife and I needed some major paining done to our new condominium unit. The walls are 22’ high so we needed someone with experience. We called JMC for an estimate and Justin showed up, took measurements and assured us it would be easy for him and his crew to get it done in two days. We trusted him because you know within 20 seconds of meeting him that he is a man of integrity. It was the best decision we made because Justin is not only thorough, prompt and efficient but he’s also one the nicest people we’ve ever met. He and his crew are so considerate and professional that I know we will never use another painter again. We could not recommend JMC Painting more! They are the best. Thank you Justin and your team for making our place look brand new! Mike & Krissy Roberts"

"We have used Cobra Painting many times over the years starting when we bought our first home in 2011 and we have used them as recently as last year when we decided to finish our basement. They painted the entire basement which included painting a bedroom, recreation room, bathroom, a bar and all of the doors, trim, and ceilings. Frank, the owner, is professional, reliable, prompt, knowledgeable and extremely skilled at his craft. He’s also a really nice guy. He and Larry offer exceptional service from start to finish, and as an aside, they’re also really really funny. Cobra Painting has also power-washed our house and our pool deck, and as always, their work exceeded our expectations. I have recommended Cobra Painting to countless friends and family and the feedback from them is always excellent. I Highly recommend this company to anyone seeking top-notch painting services!"

"I don't think they knew what they were walking into. I had tried to remove the wallpaper in my master bedroom myself and left a ton of the glue behind. They sanded, patched and painted the entire room and even stayed over the time I paid for to get the job done. It looks fantastic. A+ job I plan on using them again for any future painting needs I have.

Wallpapering 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. 

Options include bricks, natural stone, and concrete blocks. Choose based on durability, aesthetics, and budget.

In most cases, it is not recommended to wallpaper over existing wallpaper, as the success depends on the type of paper already on the wall. While you might be able to cover non-coated wallpaper, you should never apply new wallpaper over a vinyl-coated one, which is more common. Doing so can lead to poor adhesion, resulting in bubbles, imperfections, and peeling. It can also trap moisture, potentially causing hazardous mold growth between the layers.

Even if the existing wallpaper is suitable, experts recommend applying only one new layer. Adding multiple layers (more than two total) can cause significant adhesion problems, leading to warping and bubbling. For the best results, the recommended approach is to remove the old wallpaper and all paste residue before hanging the new paper. If you are unsure about your wallpaper type, consider consulting a professional.

The pros of wallpaper include its durability and longer lifespan than paint, as well as its versatility. The durability can translate to lower long-term costs for upkeep and replacement, and the versatility means you have more options for customizing rooms in your home. Some downsides include that it’s difficult to remove, it’s not ideal for rooms or areas exposed to high moisture content or sun exposure, and it’s tricky to install. A professional wallpaper hanger can help mitigate these issues, though, by installing it properly and in areas suitable for wallpaper.

We don’t recommend wallpapering over older paper. That’s because creating layers of glue can invite bubbling or excess moisture on the wall’s surface. You should also prime your wall before applying wallpaper and smooth the wall as much as you can, and another layer of wallpaper complicates this process.
