"These guys were awesome from Day 1! Had a relatively small painting project. Most painting companies were not interested. A couple of them (highly recommended to me by the paint store) quoted me over the phone without seeing the project, And, told me I would have to wait until their "slow" time (several months away) before they could begin the work. . Saumier called and e-mailed me and stayed in touch throughout the duration of the project. They actually came out to my house. Spent a lot of time with me and came up with some great suggestions I ended up incorporating into the job. The actual paint work was meticulous and there was no mess to clean up. I highly recommend these guys. Very nice people--comfortable to work with."

"Reggie was able to come out and quote the job and fit me into his schedule the following week as I had an urgent need. They arrived on-time and worked efficiently over the two days that were projected. They had to do some wall and ceiling repairs, paint vaulted ceilings and walls of living/dining/kitchen and hall. One patch needed extra attention and Reggie arranged to come back and fixed it to my liking. Overall, great painters, very dependable and efficient. Thanks Lofton Pro Painting!"

"We had Kori and his crew at PaintMaster Painting paint the exterior of our house in mid-September, 2017. From our initial interactions with Kori and his office assistant Angie, we were impressed with their promptness and professionalism. We set up a time for Kori to come out and quote the job. He arrived at exactly the time we had scheduled and provided us with a quote within just a couple of days following that first visit. Due to schedule rearrangements on their side, PaintMaster was able to begin on our job just one week after they originally came out for the estimate. They did a great job prepping the entire house by pressure washing all of the surfaces that were to be painted, and they even pressure washed our deck for us which we were not having them re-stain. All of this was included with the original estimate. Kori told us there would be no surprises, and there weren’t. The team kept us well informed of how our house painting was progressing. They cleaned up the entire job site each evening to the point that a casual observer would not have known that we were having any house work done. Kori took the extra time to get the color matching down correctly so that the house looks as close to its original color scheme as possible. In conversation, the team always seemed very knowledgeable about their trade. We were originally a bit concerned about having our house painted in early fall, with the risk of having cool damp mornings not conducive to painting. The PaintMaster crew took this into consideration, they kept an eye on weather conditions, and delayed starting some mornings until conditions were more favorable. In the end, we are very happy with how our house’s new paint job turned out. PaintMaster Painting finished the work ahead of schedule and below their original cost estimate. You read that right - they finished the house quicker than expected and with less paint than originally anticipated, so they were able to take a few hundred dollars off our final bill. Little details like that are what left us completely satisfied with our decision to go with PaintMaster Painting, and we would recommend them to anybody in the Greater Lansing area."

"Dave is extremely meticulous, reliable and respectful of peopleâ s homes. He always removed his shoes at the door, was friendly with our pets and was as unobtrusive as one can be while working in someoneâ s home. His clean up was first rate. He was easy to talk to and took time to ensure that we were on the same page. Dave also installed legs on a new custom-made hardwood desk top and did a terrific job. I highly recommend Dave."

Wallpapering questions, answered by experts

It is less costly to paint than wallpaper when you only consider the upfront cost. Wallpaper costs $320 to $820 when applied by a pro, while paint only costs $200 to $700 per room. However, when comparing wallpaper versus paint, consider the long-term as well. Wallpaper can save you money over time since it has a much longer life span than paint.

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.

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.

Yes, many types of peel-and-stick wallpaper can be used in bathrooms, especially those made of vinyl or polyester. However, its success depends heavily on the level of moisture and ventilation. In bathrooms with good ventilation, such as those with fans, it can be a durable option. Peel-and-stick wallpaper may not adhere as well as traditional wallpaper in very humid conditions. For bathrooms that see a lot of moisture, like a kids' bathroom or a full bath with a steamy shower and poor ventilation, even high-quality peel-and-stick wallpaper is likely to peel over time.

When comparing peel-and-stick and traditional wallpaper, the better choice depends on your specific needs and space. Peel-and-stick wallpaper is more budget-friendly and easier to DIY install. On the other hand, traditional wallpaper lasts much longer and holds up better in a wider variety of spaces, including areas with moisture like kitchens and bathrooms.
