"Very neat and professional job.  This was a large job estimated at 2 weeks - essentially the whole 2nd floor of the residence.
Started by taping and covering floor with resin paper, then cloths on top of that.  Everywhere - including closets.
- We went with smooth walls vs. orange peel and Dave's team did a great job of preparing and finishing the plaster & lath walls prior to prime/paint.  They took the time to do it correctly rather than "patch" it.  Large open stairwell had wallpaper that was removed before prep and painting.  They corrected imperfections in closets as well - even cuttting and installing a piece of drywall to the ceiling of one where some of the plaster was too loose to safely repair.
- Ceilings were patched before paint, but having older sand texture paint, were not able to be smoothed as well as walls.
- All baseboard, door & window trim was sanded and primed with all old caulk and built up paint removed at joints.  Most imperfections from older paint was removed before priming over the old latex and covering with oil based.  Same level of detail with the original 5 panel doors. 
Again, this was a large job on an old home.  Compliments to Dave, Lynn and their team.  They were organized, hard working and very polite.  They have the equipment needed to do the job and cleaned up every night before leaving.  The work is professional and will last.

Wallpapering questions, answered by experts

Hanging wallpaper may seem simple, but in practice it requires significant planning and finesse to make it look professional. To start, you need to get an even application of wallpaper paste across all of your wallpaper, which requires experience and large pasting tables to get right. You also need to plan out your design and match it exactly so that you don’t have imperfections in the finished product. It’s often better to hire a professional wallpaper hanger who can get the job done properly for a clean, smooth finish.

Once again, contact with moisture is the culprit here, though water-resistant varieties of wallpaper are less likely to become wet and develop mold. Using a high-quality exhaust fan or dehumidifier and leaving the doors or windows cracked after bathing will keep this issue at bay. 

When installing new steel doors, it’s smart to do other projects simultaneously. This can lower costs, limit mess, and help your home look and function better. For example, replacing a damaged doorframe is wise when planning door installations. 

Also consider changing broken or worn-out locks, repairing or replacing weather stripping, and updating handles. Painting, staining, or upgrading the trim around the door can also improve energy efficiency, security, and aesthetics.

The pros of wallpaper include its durability and longer lifespan than paint, as well as its versatility. The durability can translate to lower long-term costs for upkeep and replacement, and the versatility means you have more options for customizing rooms in your home. Some downsides include that it’s difficult to remove, it’s not ideal for rooms or areas exposed to high moisture content or sun exposure, and it’s tricky to install. A professional wallpaper hanger can help mitigate these issues, though, by installing it properly and in areas suitable for wallpaper.

Wallpaper lasts an average of around 15 years, but there is some variance. The type of wallpaper matters, as vinyl wallpaper tends to last the longest—sometimes 20 years or more—while a peel-and-stick wallpaper, which is the easiest to install for DIYers, will usually only last for around five years. Exposure to high humidity, smoke, and UV rays from sunlight can also limit the lifespan of your wallpaper, as can heavy traffic in the installation area.
