"Brian was amazing to work with. First of all, I had a scheduling debacle with my wallpaper not being delivered on time and he was SO flexible with his schedule in order to help me out when I needed it. Second, he did an excellent job putting up the wallpaper - brought all of his own supplies and left my house spotless afterwards. The wallpaper is up perfectly without any flaws. Would highly recommend him!"

"We contracted with JAM Home Services (Jeff) to repair and paint walls, ceilings and closets in the living/dining room and 3 bedrooms of our house. We also asked about installing base board where missing/damaged and also installing shoe molding in all rooms (we had just had carpeting removed and hardwood floors refinished), While his was not lowest estimate for the project, we were impressed with his knowledge, suggestions for successful completion and his professionalism. At our request, he suggested several colors that would work with the hardwood floors. We agreed on a start date, which had to be firm, to meet a specific timeline to place our house on the market. A week before start date, he checked in with us to be sure we still on schedule. As it happened, other projects were already completed, so he started a week earlier than planned and completed the project withing the 4 days he had originally estimated. We could not have been more pleased with the result! Each day, the work space was cleared and cleaned, except for drop cloths left to protect floors. He repaired a baseball-sized hole in the wall in one bedroom, repaired a crack in the plaster above a door in the living room, filled all nail holes. The paint on all ceilings, wall and closets was smooth and even - no messy corners or bleeding edges. The new base boards and and shoe molding were such great enhancements to the rooms. We highly recommend JAM Home Services for anyone with home repair or improvement project needs!"

"My experience in working with Mr. Jones and his painting crew was simply superb. My siblings and I needed to sell our family home, but many serious updates were needed before we listed it. Phil was very kind and patient with us when we had to reschedule a time or 2, due to unforeseen circumstances. The 2-story, 2,000 sq. ft. house had not been painted properly for many years, and needed extensive prep work, including the removal of wallpaper, the painting over of dated, dark paneling and and the fixing of a damaged ceiling. The Flawless Painting crew completed all of this work extremely well. Mr. Jones and his crew painted the house, inside and out, and it looks beautiful and brand new! All details were attended to. We listed the house when Phil's crew finished, and had a great offer within a few short days. I have to think that it was the beautiful paint job that sold the home. Flawless Painting Company is indeed Fabulous!"

"Stohl Painting was excellent. Nathan and crew were extremely careful, very detailed oriented , and took much pride in their work. They did extensive prep work to the walls and ceilings of our home which had not been repainted since the orginal construction in 1997. They repaired nail pops, cracks, etc. and smoothed the walls prior to applying paint. They were very thorough in covering floors, furniture, light fixtures, etc.and vacuumed, dusted, etc. after painting was completed. Our home has 19' ceilings in the great room that includes an open staircase. This presented no problem as they were able to safely utilize ladders, etc. and avoided having to assemble scaffolding. I am very pleased with the quality of paint used, it is very washable and looks great. Our deck railing looks outstanding. Nathan chose to use a colored stain over an oil based primer and the color match to our home was exact. We were so pleased with how this deck turned out that we have asked Nathan and crew to return this spring to repair and repaint our entire front porch railing and column system. A job this large will have the occsional missed area or repair that was not noticeable during the day but became visible at night. Stohl Painting immediately corrected any areas that were less than perfect that either we found or they observed when they would inspect the previous day's painting. This was a big job. Nathan had originally estimated seven days of work with a full crew, we added items after they started, the railings were delayed numerous times due to rain, etc, and we then decided to repaint a downstairs stairwell and attached large gameroom, which added another three days. In total, the painting job took almost a month to complete, with at least one person and usually two or three of his crew here daily. But my husband and I could not have possibly done all this painting ourselves without it taking months and we certainly would not have produced the quality finish Stohl Painting provided."

"Mike is wonderful. He  was prompt and very skilled.  He arrived when he said he would, and didn't leave until the job was finished. He saw that the floorboards were a bit scuffed up - he repainted them without our asking him, and without cost to us.  I will use Gabriel Painting for every painting job I need done. Absolutely fabulous."

"Jessica and her team are a wonderful group to work with. If one member of her team is unable to complete the job another member jumps right in and seamlessly completes the job. My husband and I are delighted with the end result of the painting and wallpaper removal.
Jessica's team also removed my old deck and installed a new deck promptly, efficiently, and beautifully! I expected professional and friendly service and not only did I receive it, I feel confident in contracting with them again in the future.
Thanks!!

Wallpaper Removal FAQs, answered by experts

The cost varies from $1 to $3 per square foot, depending on the type of wallpaper, the wall condition, and the labor involved.

Small amounts of wallpaper can be thrown away in your household trash. If you’re removing a whole home’s worth of wallpaper, you may need to contact a waste removal company, rent a dumpster, or schedule a special pick-up with your municipality’s waste removal service. Wallpaper isn’t recyclable, so no matter which method you choose to dispose of it, make sure it doesn’t get mixed in with the recycling.

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 it is possible to paint over wallpaper, it is generally better to remove it first to guarantee a smooth, professional finish. Painting over wallpaper can save time, but it may lead to issues if not done correctly.

You can paint over existing wallpaper if it is in excellent condition: smooth, non-textured, clean, and firmly adhered to the wall. Ensure there are no bumps, tears, or peeling areas, and that all corners and seams are securely glued down. You might also consider painting over wallpaper if removing it would damage the underlying wall. Additionally, some wallpapers are specifically designed to be paintable, which can add texture to a room.

However, there are risks. If the wallpaper is textured, damaged, or peeling, these imperfections will show through the new paint. The moisture from the paint can also loosen the wallpaper's adhesive, causing it to bubble and potentially damage the wall. To mitigate these issues, clean the surface thoroughly and use an oil-based primer to help the paint adhere and prevent the old adhesive from bleeding through.

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.
