"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 have hired Woodbrook Painting several times over the last seven years. Our most recent project was painting our kitchen cabinets, we are delighted with the outcome. Our 25 year old cabinets look like brand new and like they just came in from the factory. Keith, Ryan and the crew were professionals from beginning to end and got the job done on time, within budget and with minimal disruption to our routine. We will be hiring Woodbrook again soon."

"James came over looked at the job and gave us the better of all the previous estimates we received. He then told us how much paint we would need. Two days later he brought his helper and they were done the same day. Well done and affordable"

"I had a tricky wallpaper repair as it is grasscloth and bubbling up from the wall in several spots. Dave got marinade injectors and made multiple horizontal cuts in the lifted paper. He then injected the paste and smoothed it to where he wanted it. It took time, but it is completely fixed and you can't find the bubbling anymore! I am so thankful this eyesore is finally fixed. I have been trying to get it done for 2 years."

"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!"

"Nelson's Painting has been out to my house twice for different projects. I found Jon very responsive and easy to work with. I had different projects including difficult wallpaper removal, wall repair, and interior painting. The work was excellent and they took great care on the details. Their wall repair was better than a wall repair expert I had previously hired. I felt their priority was achieving a great end product and making the customer happy. I will definitely be calling them in the future for additional projects."

"I scheduled this job from out of town. My brother supervised the work. I don't know the final cost, but the labor was about $7000. The painter bought the supplies and we reimbursed him - believe that was about $1000. The painted understood that we were converting this house to a rental. He had good advise about what to paint, and what wasn't necessary. He seemed very committed to doing a good job and having the finished project one he was proud of."

Wallpaper Removal questions, answered by experts

The simple nature of peel and stick wallpaper means it should come off much more easily than traditional wallpaper that is glued to your walls. You’ll still want to work slowly and carefully to avoid tearing it, but most peel and stick wallpaper should come off without a chemical agent to loosen it.

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.

Think hard before deciding to German schmear your home’s exterior brickwork. If you do not like the look, you are pretty much stuck with it, as it is impossible to remove this finish the way you can remove paint. You risk damaging the underlying brick if you have to chisel and acid-wash it away. It will also take a very long time, and remnants of the mortar wash will always remain.

Using a fabric softener solution is a popular and low-cost DIY method for removing wallpaper, but its effectiveness is limited. While it may work on some types of wallpaper, it is unlikely to be successful on vintage styles, and there is no evidence that it is more effective than other removal methods. There are also several potential downsides: the solution can leave behind a residue that may damage your walls or interfere with the adhesion of new wallpaper. Additionally, this method can create a strong, overpowering aroma that takes a long time to dissipate, making it a poor choice for homeowners sensitive to smells.

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.
