"Omar did a fabulous job installing our wallpaper. He was very responsive and promptly came out for a quote! While quoting he also was able to help us determine how much wallpaper would be needed for the job. I ordered the wallpaper after our quote and he promptly came out to install about a month later when the Wallpaper arrived. I am thrilled with the way the room turned out! Omar was very careful and even reached out to the company for installation recommendations the day before install. There was very little waste at the end which is great because wallpaper can be expensive! I am thrilled with the quality of work and felt he was reasonably priced. I can’t wait to start my next wallpaper project. I will definitely be calling Omar!"

"T’s Wallcovering saved the day! A long sad story short, I had hired another wallpaper installer who completely botched the job on my commode in the master bath. I was now desperate, with one week before contractor completion, to find a competent wallpaper installer or send back all the wallpaper and just paint the darn room! In swings T’s Wallcovering! Trevor was immediately responsive via text message. He was upfront about how many rolls I would need and his quote was more than resonable. He worked with my schedule when the wallpaper didn’t arrive on time and was extremely flexible. His partner, Mikey, and Trevor were more than professional. They finished the job in less than 3 hours and left the room spotless. I couldn’t be happier with T’s Wallpaper service, and wish I had more rooms to wallpaper so I could use them again! You won’t be disappointed if you choose :)"

"M&H Painting did an incredible job. They addressed every flaw in the wall.... popped drywall screws, small cracks, ceiling drywall issues so that it they are fixed perfectly. They show up on time and finish on time. They replace everything they move so it's as if they were never there. By far the best paint job at a very fair price I have experienced. I highly recommend Honorio and his team!"

Albert?s man came in at 9:30am.  He had the wallpaper and the glue removed by noon, the walls patched (my walls didn?t need much patching) and primed by 2:30pm and the main coat of paint completed by 4:00pm.  He didn?t hesitate when I asked him to also paint/freshen up the trim.  He even walked in with trim paint in his hand and asked about it before I asked.  He did a fantastic job that I refuse to do myself and I do a lot of my own home repair and upgrading.  He covered my new cabinets and countertops to protect them.  He cleaned everything and left no mess of any kind.



I highly recommend Albert?s team of good hard workers that take the time to do the job right and attention to detail.  I?ll be calling them back in a few months to repaint my entire family room.  Thank you Albert for the great job.

"We hired Gidawe Drywall LLC to repair cracks between the ceiling and wall that appeared after the popcorn was removed from the ceiling by a different contractor. The service provided was 1) drywall repair, 2) plastering and 3) painting. David provided a reasonable quote and began work almost immediately. I am a particular person and I am more than completely satisfied. David’s workmanship is excellent and the repair looks perfect. He provided the service exactly as I had asked. David is friendly and easy to work with, punctual and pays attention to details including post work clean up. We heartily recommend David and Gidawe Drywall."

"This is the second time I've hired them. First, Luis came and assessed the work needed, recommended types of paint, and gave his estimate, which I accepted. The crew arrived at 7:30 and began blocking off walls, rugs, and outdoor furniture. They worked quickly, quietly, and professionally and finished in two days. No paint or stain got where it wasn't supposed to and they made sure to put everything back where it was when they finished. It was an excellent experience and I'll work with them for future jobs."

Wallpaper Removal questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can pay someone to strip wallpaper. Before you hang new wallpaper, you should hire a local wallpaper removal service to prep the surface properly. Wallpaper removal pros cost $0.55 to $1.50 per square foot or $500 to $700 per room. Prices vary by room size and removal technique, as some options are more labor-intensive.

While many types of peel-and-stick wallpaper can be used in bathrooms, they may not adhere as well in humid environments as traditional wallpaper. For best results, choose a vinyl or polyester-based wallpaper, as these materials are more durable and water-resistant. Good ventilation is also crucial to reduce humidity from steamy showers. In bathrooms with high moisture and inadequate ventilation, even high-quality peel-and-stick wallpaper is likely to peel over time.

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.

The average cost to install or hang wallpaper is around $575 per room or project, with typical prices ranging from $200 to $1,500. Costs can be higher for custom or luxury products. Since project size varies, it's often helpful to estimate labor costs per square foot, which generally fall between $1 and $7, with an average of $4 per square foot. The total cost depends on several factors, including the quality and type of wallpaper, the size and type of the room, and whether old wallpaper must be removed first. Opting for less expensive materials like peel-and-stick wallpaper or choosing to do the installation yourself can lower the overall cost. For the most accurate estimate, it is best to have a professional inspect the space and provide a quote.

As long as the surface you’re putting the tile on is properly prepped, peel-and-stick backsplashes should stay on and last anywhere from 3 to 5 years. The best way to ensure the tile stays on is to sand down and clean the wall before applying your design.
