"Dennis is truly the best. From the first phone call, he was very honest about his abilities and the potential challenges with our project. He did not oversell himself, and that was a big reason on why we chose to go with him. He was able to complete the project very quickly within 1 day, and we could not be happier with the outcome. Our wallpaper was more of a scenic canvas, so there were a lot of potential challenges with lining everything up perfectly in a small bathroom with windows and doors, but he did it so seamlessly that you can't even tell where the pieces stop and start. On top of the beautiful work he does, he is an all-around great person, so easy to work with, very professional, and so friendly. We will absolutely be hiring him again for our next painting or wallpaper project!"

"I had one room completely blueboarded with new plaster and then painted. I would give that a 10. I also had a hallway ceiling replastered and painted. Also a 10. I wanted to paint the walls in the stairwell which had wallpaper. Contractor chose to remove the wallpaper and paint instead of new plaster. The walls weren't in great shape and the painters didn't smooth some bad patch work so I had some areas that don't look great. When I pointed them out and expressed unhappiness, he simply said "Bad walls." So I'd go with a 7 for the stairwell. Overall good job."

"Wallpaper had to be removed. Walls had to be sanded and skim coated . He moved all furniture , draped the entire room and put everything back in place upon completion. Finished product was excellent and lastly, an honest decent man to do business with. I will probably have him do more jobs in the future for me.

"We can't say enough about Vieira Painting. Nivaldo contacted us the same day we left a message on his service and gave us an extremely competitive bid on much-needed repairs and painting of our home's exterior. He identified, replaced, and painted rotting shingles and wood trim and repaired a damaged gutter. Nivaldo was on-site at all times, working alongside his polite, professional team. We will call on them for all future projects."

"Juery is very detail oriented. He was also accommodating to a few changes made after the project was started. Stayed true to his quote and finished within the time line I was given at the start of the project. Will definitely call him again as we continue renovating."

"Purchased an Angie's List deal for whole house painting.  They scheduled a time to come measure the house, showed up when they said they would.  There was a small math error in calculating the size of our house, but we worked that out easily.
The prep work (power washing and scraping) was done on the first rainy day in 2 or 3 months, so it took a little longer than we all expected for the actual painting to begin.  But the weather eventually cooperated, and the crew arrived to begin painting.  They did a good job of covering areas that were not to be painted, removed and replaced downspouts as needed, even painted the window screens, which came as a pleasant surprise.

Wallpaper Removal FAQs, answered by experts

The average cost to remove wood paneling is $2,800, but total costs may be higher or lower depending on the size of the room, your location, and the amount of prep work required. Once the paneling is gone, you may have additional costs depending on the condition of the wall beneath.

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.

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.

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.
