"My house is 100 years old. We discovered several layers of wallpaper to be removed. He was not distracted by that fact and simply and quickly removed the paper from the living room, small hall/short stair area all in one day. Really nice guy did a through job. He will be coming back in about a week or so to install new wallpaper in the same area. I honestly expect he will continue his easy going attitude and past expertise and do a good job!"

"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!"

"Our living room ceiling was damaged from a previous roof leak. The plaster was cracked and loose. It looked really bad. Mr. Jones repaired the damaged plaster and repainted. We have a large open living room with a ceiling that flows into the dining room and another room. It's not possible to tell where the new painting stops. My husband (a commercial electrician and renovator of rental properties) came home and said, "this is flawless work!" He didn't know the name of the company! Mr. Jones was prompt in returning my initial phone call. The work was started quickly and they finished in just a few days. I would definitely use this company again!"

"We started what we called our Covid-19 Project. We were remodeling the powder room. After removing the existing tile on the floor, we discovered the floor wasnâ t leveled. Matt came and fixed the floor and the toilet flange. He was professional and on time. We are satisfied with the work he did. I would recommend him"

"We have been wanting to do on the kitchen for the past few years. We met with many contractors and finally decided to go with Rob and Zack. They were excellent and paid attention to every single detail as if it was their own house. We changed plans many times and they were very patient with us. Very honest and hardworking. We'll definitely hire them again to do the master bath and other projects in the house. So glad we finally found a great contractor.

Wallpaper Removal questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

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.

Stubborn adhesives, multiple layers, and drywall damage can complicate removal.

Accent walls can feel out of place or distracting if not well designed. Accent walls that don’t fit in with a room’s style can feel jarring or overpowering. Some accent wall styles can also feel dated, but fortunately, it’s easier to update a single wall than an entire room.
