Is traditional or peel and stick wallpaper better?

• <div><p>When comparing <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/peel-and-stick-vs-traditional-wallpaper.htm">peel-and-stick versus traditional wallpaper</a>, peel-and-stick is more affordable and easier to DIY install. However, <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-long-does-peel-and-stick-wallpaper-last.htm">it doesn’t last as long as traditional wallpaper</a>. Traditional wallpaper also holds up better in areas with moisture, such as kitchens and bathrooms.</p></div>

Q: Should I overlap seams when hanging wallpaper?

• <div><p>No. If you overlap seams, the wallpaper will not come out flat. In addition to possibly throwing off your pattern match between rolls, overlapping seems necessary. If wallpaper is properly acclimated, and temperature and moisture conditions are optimal during installation, there is no reason to fear shrinkage as it dries.</p></div>

Q: What other project should I do at the same time?

• <div><p>Because replacing pool tiles requires fully draining your pool, it&rsquo;s a great opportunity to complete other projects. You may want to replace your pool&rsquo;s vinyl liner or repair cracks. You might also replace your swimming pool heater or even take on the <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-it-cost-resurface-swimming-pool.htm">cost of resurfacing your pool</a>. Resurfacing, although relatively costly, can help prolong the lifespan of your pool.</p></div>

Q: Why is my wallpaper not sticking to the wall?

• <div><p>The two most common reasons wallpaper does not stick are a lack of preparation and improper adhesive. Be sure to use the wallpaper paste designed for the type of paper you choose. Before beginning your project, make sure the walls are clean and free of dust, grease, and oils. </p></div>

Q: How do you layer wallpaper over wallpaper?

• <div><p>To layer wallpaper over wallpaper, inspect your existing wallpaper for problem areas. Damaged wallpaper should not be covered. If it&rsquo;s okay to proceed, prep by turning off the electricity and removing any outlet and switch covers. Dust your walls and lightly rinse them to prevent the existing paper from peeling. Apply primer, then apply your new wallpaper. </p></div>

Perfect from start to finish. Vinny is a master at getting the seams matched perfectly and the paper placement around and behind objects was so well done. He worked with English wallpapers that needed wall prep and paste to hang correctly and each pattern had different repeats and...

Kim has a great eye for color and for color scheme appropriate to the house style and furnishings. She is diligent and meticulous. She did a great job removing wallpaper, prepping walls and woodwork and repairing dry wall damage and holes both quite large and small.

They stripped the wallpaper in my family room and painted. They were very responsive, scheduled the work promptly and performed the work very quickly and well. I would definitely recommend this company. and, in fact, am already using them for another project.
