"The entire project took approximately 4 weeks. Sheldon & Sons was on site every day.  Sam supervised the painting crew. He was very thorough, detail oriented and a pleasure to work with. They cleaned up the job site at the end of each day. Scott Sheldon was always available with any questions we had about the work. He backed their work with a 3 year warranty for cracking & peeling paint.
We would recommend Sheldon & Son Inc. We would not hesitate to use them for future projects.

"Extremely well. Kikou, LLC is an amazing company; provides an amazing quality work product! Most of all, they are amazing to work with to ensure you are satisfied. They did three two feature walls, my master bath, and my powder room. I have booked to have them do additional projects. I have a new home and everyone who sees my wallpaper asks for Kikou, LLC contact to get wallpaper installed in their homes."

"George's painting, inc was responsive and professional from start to finish. The project entailed wallpaper removal from 2.5 bathrooms and kitchen, repainting those rooms; installing a tile backsplash and vinyl tile floor in the kitchen; replacing the kitchen countertop; repairing a cabinet; repairing drywall and painting the ceiling in the master bedroom. The owner came out to do the estimate himself. He was accommodating when I wanted to expand the scope of the initial project and came out a second time to give me an updated estimate. He was easy to reach via cell or email. The estimate was more than fair. His crew completed the job in three days. The crew was polite, professional, and did a good job cleaning up at the end of each work day. I highly recommend this company and would use them again."

"The owner, Gordon Cleveland, is a delight. He was very easy to work with and my German Shepherd adored him. In addition to the incredible amount of painting he did, he would also help me with moving furniture in some rooms and just about anything where I needed help. He removed some difficult wallpaper and patched lots of holes where we removed an old alarm system. He even rented a power washer for me and spent a day cleaning up my sidewalks and patios. He is incredibly flexible and worked around my hours; sometimes going to another job at night after working in my house all day. I love his old world work ethic."

"This company is very thorough in their work. I liked that when he was finished, we walked through the house together. There were a few places that I thought he was going to paint but didn't but then he went ahead and did the work. It was nothing major. The end result looked wonderful. His company is trustworthy and efficient."

Wallpapering questions, answered by experts

Yes, but professional services ensure secure installation, accurate leveling, and protection against wall damage, especially for heavy or valuable items.

Painting over wallpaper is an efficient way to cover it if it’s in decent shape. Before painting over wallpaper, make sure the surface is clean and smooth. You may have to remove minor problem areas, such as lifted seams or small peels, with a sheetrock knife or putty knife. Add a latex- or oil-based primer to keep moisture at bay before painting. You’ll likely need two coats of paint to cover the area.

It’s possible to hang your own wallpaper, but the process is tedious and potentially frustrating, and it can be challenging to get seams to line up and look clean and professional. Plus, depending on the type of wallpaper you’re installing, using too much or too little adhesive could cause damage to your drywall or plaster, peeling, and bubbling in the final product. It’s usually a better idea to hire a professional wallpaper installer to do the work for you, as the relatively low cost is justifiable, if only to avoid damage to your walls.

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.

Your peel-and-stick wallpaper can fall off for multiple reasons, including high humidity levels, extreme temperature changes, poor installation, and even the wall surface. Textured walls can prevent the adhesive from fully sticking to the wall, making it more likely for the wallpaper to peel off. Low-quality wallpapers with weaker adhesives are also more likely to fall off prematurely.
