"It went fabulously. They filled the holes where the old pulls were and you can't tell at all. The cabinets look wonderful. The walls were patched and fixed before painting. And the guys cleaned up everything really well, kept everything clean throughout the process and at the end cleaned up like it was a new house."

"360 Painting was great to work with. Lorna (the owner) helped me make color decisions and clearly knew what she was talking about related to trim and contrast. The crew worked efficiently and completed the work after a few days of dedicated time (I had the entire exterior of the house painted, including the trim. There was adequate supervision, and very good value for money. I'll be asking them for another quote in the future when I turn my attention inside. I also like the idea of working with a woman-owned business."

"Renzo and his crew are awesome! He was tasked with a cleaning up a mess from the subcontractors that couldn’t get the wallpaper aligned. He was able to repair the damage they did to the drywall as well as align the wallpaper. Very experienced professional compared to the amateurs I was dealing with before. Renzo to the rescue!"

Wallpaper Removal questions, answered by experts

Removing a wallpaper border requires the same process to remove full walls of wallpaper. Clear the area, spray down the surface with your hot water and vinegar solution or store-bought spray, wait 10 to 15 minutes, then scrape it off with a putty knife. Sometimes, border wallpaper lifts easier than larger sheets, so you can just peel it right off the wall by hand.

The average cost to install or hang wallpaper is around $575 per room or project, with typical prices ranging from $200 to $1,500. Costs can be higher for custom or luxury products. Since project size varies, it's often helpful to estimate labor costs per square foot, which generally fall between $1 and $7, with an average of $4 per square foot. The total cost depends on several factors, including the quality and type of wallpaper, the size and type of the room, and whether old wallpaper must be removed first. Opting for less expensive materials like peel-and-stick wallpaper or choosing to do the installation yourself can lower the overall cost. For the most accurate estimate, it is best to have a professional inspect the space and provide a quote.

Wallpaper steamers can be very helpful for removing large sections of wallpaper more easily, but they’re not always a good idea for DIYers. The drywall behind your wallpaper is meant to stay dry, and excessive moisture from improper technique with a wallpaper steamer can leave you with severe wall damage. Drywall also retains moisture, which could result in mold growth over time. It’s best to hire a professional to remove your wallpaper with a steamer to avoid wall damage and related moisture issues.

You’ll need to wash the walls to remove wallpaper adhesive residue after removal as part of the prep process for painting or rehanging wallpaper. Old adhesive can cause texture issues and prevent paint or wallpaper from adhering properly to the wall’s surface.

Wallpaper in bathrooms can last anywhere from one to 10 years, depending on what type was used, how well it was installed, and the measures in place to reduce moisture and humidity levels. Opting for a more durable variety and taking all the necessary protective measures will get you closer to that longer lifespan.
