"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"

"Renes came to our newly purchased condo and, after a thorough inspection, gave us a very reasonable written detailed estimate of the painting work that we had requested. He noticed details about the work to be done that other painting contractors had not mentioned to us. Communication with him and his office manager was always prompt and helpful. The interior painting job took four days (which is exactly how long he had told us that it would take) and was beautifully done, with real attention to detail. After we had picked out the specific Benjamin Moore colors and paint sheen to be used (with advice from Renes), Renes bought all of the paint (at a contractor's discount) and started the job three days after we had decided to hire him. All of his workers were prompt and friendly and did an excellent job of safely moving two large china cabinets. We inspected the work each day (with Renes proudly showing us specific details of repairs that he had done so the painting would be effective in certain areas) and Renes was quick to accept the small suggestions that we made. After completing the work, Renes left us the leftover paint in case touch ups were needed and he and his workers cleaned up everything. The paint job itself was perfect -- no paint bleed-overs onto the trim, no paint marks on the floors or windows, and no extra charges over the original written estimate that we had been given. We would happily hire R & J Painting again!"

"Paulo and his team were on time, professional, and highly skilled. MP Remodeling took down 20+ year old wallpaper in 3 rooms as well as hallways on two floors. Additionally they patched/repaired the walls. We brought them back to paint the rooms as well as trim and 10+ doors which were stained dark and are now painted brilliant white. We are going to hire them again for some upcoming projects."

"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."

"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."

"After purchasing our new home, we needed someone to come in to strip wallpaper in a few rooms of our house and to paint as much of the interior as we could afford. We hired Big Brush Painting after meeting with a number of painters and evaluating quotes for a few simple reasons. First, their review history here on Angie's List is stellar. Second, they were exceedingly punctual in their emails, phone calls, and their first visit to the house. Third, they were friendly, straightforward and down-to-earth. And finally, their price simply couldn't be beat. Their prices for painting were on par with or lower than most of the painters we spoke with, but their price for wallpaper stripping was less than half what others were charging. Initially we were skeptical about this, but after meeting with Rish and Rodrigo about the condition of our walls, we felt confidant in their recommendations and time estimates. We hired them to strip all of the wallpaper (living room, dining room, foyer, stairwell and upstairs/downstairs hallways), and then to paint the living room, foyer, stairwell and upstairs/downstairs hallways. We intended to paint the four bedrooms and the dining room ourselves, but in the end we ran out of time so we asked Rodrigo to add the dining room to his job. They worked very fast, and we're beyond pleased with quality of the results. On top of that, on more than one occasion Rodrigo gave us helpful painting tips, let us use a few of his tools and supplies, and rescued us from making colossal mistakes in our own work, even going so far as to patch all the way around a damaged doorway in one of the rooms we were working on. I won't hesitate to use Big Brush again or to recommend them to anyone in need of this type of work. They were well worth the money we spent."

"Paulo, Jose and the rest of the team did an amazing job. We could not be more happy with the quality of the product and professionalism of the crew. Their attention to detail is unmatched (the level at which they prepped the walls, removing imperfections was especially incredible) to the extent that these guys are basically artists. They helped marry the old part of our house with the new and added a ton of value. At same time, they were complete gentlemen and very clean. We are looking forward to using them again for other painting jobs and referring them to all of our friends. Cannot rate highly enough."

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.

"Steve at Hollywood Junk was extremely responsive and helpful. With an hour of requesting a quote, I received a reasonable quote from Steve and agreed to hire him to do the job. He advised he could do the job today and we setup a time and he called me when he was 15 minutes away to let me know he was on the way. My job was completed with 3 hours of submitting my request. The treadmill I needed to have removed needed to be taken apart to get out the door and he had the tools necessary."

Wallpaper Removal questions, answered by experts

Removing wallpaper can be easy if you have a non-coated wallpaper, but most homeowners have vinyl-coated wallpaper, which is more durable but tears very easily during the removal process. This feature makes it challenging and time-consuming to remove most wallpaper. There are tools to speed up the process, like steamers, but, unfortunately, it’s easy to permanently damage your walls when using them. In most cases, it’s best to hire a professional wallpaper remover to get the job done quickly and without damaging your home.

Yes, most professionals patch and smooth walls after removal to prepare for new finishes.

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.

While many types of peel-and-stick wallpaper can be used in bathrooms, they may not adhere as well in humid environments as traditional wallpaper. For best results, choose a vinyl or polyester-based wallpaper, as these materials are more durable and water-resistant. Good ventilation is also crucial to reduce humidity from steamy showers. In bathrooms with high moisture and inadequate ventilation, even high-quality peel-and-stick wallpaper is likely to peel over time.

No, you don’t always have to remove old wallpaper before applying a new layer. However, you should pull off the existing wallpaper if it’s cracked, peeling, or in poor condition. We’d also recommend against putting wallpaper over textured or dark-colored wallpaper because the old layer may be visible through the new one. In addition, if you try to hang new wallpaper over vinyl-coated wallpaper, the adhesive might not stick properly.
