"I’d put off fixing a hole in our kitchen ceiling for months, assuming it would be a multi-day hassle with furniture to move and dust everywhere. I finally found Marcio and Flavio at Master Plastering through Angi.com — first-time user, and wow, what a great experience. They were responsive, insured, and incredibly easy to work with. I asked for quotes on Wednesday, signed on Friday, and by Monday night the job was done — plastered, painted, spotless, and perfect. No mess, no stress, just efficient, high-quality work. Highly recommend them for anyone looking for fast, professional results."

Family run business who are ready to start helping owners create the home they have always wanted! We have over 25 years of experience! We get our jobs done as quickly and as efficiently as possible at a reasonable price! Perfection is what we strive for at all times! Our clients satisfaction is what keeps us going throughout our profession. We use the best of the best painting materials along with the best painting brand " Benjamin Moore". Our company is based out of Northborough & Marlborough Massachusetts but we service all of Massachusetts.

"Chillins Painting & Remodeling – A Total Disaster of a Company If I could give zero stars, I would. Hiring Chillins Painting & Remodeling was an absolute nightmare from start to finish. This company has no business calling themselves professionals. The paint job they rushed through started peeling within days — not months, not weeks, days. Their siding work was just as bad: they dumped the old siding all over our lawn, killed most of our grass, and then acted like it wasn’t their responsibility. We had to beg them to come back just to clean up their own mess. When it came time to actually finish the job, they offered one ridiculous excuse after another — locked keys, injuries, “other jobs” they chose to prioritize instead of ours. Finally, when the owner begrudgingly returned, he tried to shake us down for more money before doing the work we already paid for. That second attempt was just as careless and pathetic as the first, with peeling paint, visible damage to our siding, and yet another pile of unused materials they dumped on our property for us to pay to remove. Chillins Painting & Remodeling is everything you hope to avoid when hiring a contractor: sloppy, dishonest, condescending, and utterly incompetent. They cut corners at every step, treat their customers with disdain, and leave your property in worse condition than when they started. This company is a scam dressed up as a contractor. If you care about your home, your money, or your sanity, stay far, far away from Chillins Painting & Remodeling. They are a complete embarrassment to their trade."

"Mark was very friendly, professional, responsive and finished the job a timely manner. He gave us a fair estimate and was able to accurately describe the scope of the project up front. We had just bought a 1967 ranch that needed updating and Mark and his team removed some paneling and layers of old painted wallpaper from almost every room in the house, repaired the walls and painted our new house to get it ready for us to move in and make our home. He was also knowledgeable about helping us choose the right paint color and finish. He even stood by his work and helped us fix a snafu weeks later in the bathroom due us not having a working fan. I highly recommend Color Concepts."

We are a locally owned and operated fully Licensed, Interior, and Exterior Painting company. We strive for excellence and provide the best for our clients. We also offer wallpaper install, wallpaper removal, stucco as well as cleaning services.

"My first time hiring an Angi Pro and I hit the jackpot. Brian Kennedy of Kennedy Painting exceeded my expectations over and over again. From the start of our correspondence in early August (project delayed due to personal issues on my end) to our conversation in October when Brian asked 'how about Monday at 7:00 AM?" I was introduced to the team that worked so efficiently, moving furniture (living room/dining room and two hallways) cleaned up at the end of each day. Wallpaper stripped, walls repaired, and painted. My project took five complete days with minimal interruptions in my daily life. Very, very professional, efficient organization. "

Michael Carr Painting and Wallpapering is your premier choice for painting and wall covering projects. Serving Brighton and surrounding communities with quality and attention to detail . If you want your home project done right the first time call Michael today! (617) 797-3083

"Michael and his assistant, Jose, did a superb job painting and wallpapering a study and bathroom. My husband said it was the best wallpapering job he'd ever seen. We used a difficult pattern and he matched it perfectly, even when we were down to our last wallpaper ends, trying to finish a spot above a door. They were prompt, worked a full 8-5 day, and were as unobtrusive as possible while working. We highly recommend him."

Wallpaper Removal questions, answered by experts

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.

Because poison ivy and similar plants can cause potentially life-threatening allergic reactions depending on your sensitivity, it's best to hire a professional to remove it. Hiring a local lawn care service or other professional also increases your chances of successful eradication so that you don't have to deal with the issue again several months down the road.

If you can already see the texture of the existing wallpaper through the layer of paint, then the texture could also come through the new layer of wallpaper. If that’s the aesthetic you want, then proceed. But if you want a smoother surface, you should either strip off the existing paint and wallpaper or hang a layer of liner paper before proceeding.

You can paint over wallpaper, but it’s not usually recommended, especially if the wallpaper underneath is textured or dirty. If you do decide to paint your wallpaper, make sure it’s in good condition and clean it very well. Make sure all corners and edges of wallpaper are glued down before you paint, as well.

For the most part, peel-and-stick wallpaper doesn't damage walls. However, there may be some cases when damage does occur. For example, if you try to rip the paper off the wall, you may pull away some paint at the same time.

The walls can also be damaged if they aren't prepared properly before you add the wallpaper. For example, if the coat of paint is too fresh when you put the wallpaper on the walls, it can peel away as you remove the paper.
