"Jeff and his crew are wonderful. They were all very efficient and meticulous , and nice! They were all a pleasure to have around. Jeff was able to accommodate our crazy work and childcare schedule, completing our whole house project within 2 weeks. We needed full 2 story home wallpaper removal, wall prep, and paint. Some of the walls needed patching or repairs, and he took care of those as well. I really appreciated him giving us a variable estimate, with a high amount that was the maximum of what it could be.. Because he was not sure the actual total time of repairs and prep. In the end, our total was a bit lower than we had prepared for. They use/provide Benjamin Moore paint. Wonderful. We absolutely recommend Jeff and this business."

"Very well. Good phone/email communication; I felt they were prompt, honest, and did a fine job. Wallpaper came off easily so the job was not difficult. I supplied contractor trash bags, & paint. They brought the rest. Glad to have the Maranca brothers on our list of reliable companies."

"They did a great job. Very quickly for a very reasonable price. The only thing I did not like that much was that they used the fabric covers (big sheets of fabric) to cover the floor and they were pretty dusty (I guess from their previous work). I would advice them to use either disposable paper or plastic or wash the fabric cover if they get dusty."

"Juan has been a pleasure to work with. He managed to squeeze into our tight timeline to get the work done, even when we had to add some unexpected additional work (patching walls). His paint work is flawless, the only drawback was that some larger patchwork was less then ideal, but again with time constraints and this work coming as unplanned, can't really complain. I will definitely work with Juan again when the need arises and I would gladly recommend him to anyone else."

"EXCELLENT EXPERIENCE: superior craftsmanship, professionalism When you meet Tony you know he is a master of his profession. His work speaks for itself - impeccable, professional, reliable. The work Tony and Pablo did was so great, so appreciated, that we are already planning to have him do more work asap. The initial job was for 1. wall prep and installation of tricky grasscloth wallpaper and 2. Prepping and painting walls, woodwork, ceiling of a very tall foyer entrance, staircase and 2nd floor. The grasscloth looks like silk on the walls and Tony's suggestions on the paint were right on target. We confidently and sincerely recommend Clavelli for superior work & a stress-free pleasant experience. He is even incredibly punctual. He returns calls exactly when he says he will, shows up on time and works quietly, cleanly and unobtrusively."

Wallpapering questions, answered by experts

No, you don’t always have to remove old wallpaper before applying a new layer. However, you should pull off the existing wallpaper if it’s cracked, peeling, or in poor condition. We’d also recommend against putting wallpaper over textured or dark-colored wallpaper because the old layer may be visible through the new one. In addition, if you try to hang new wallpaper over vinyl-coated wallpaper, the adhesive might not stick properly. 

Yes, you can apply peel-and-stick wallpaper over wood paneling, but it requires significant preparation for a good result. Peel-and-stick wallpaper has a weaker adhesive than traditional wallpaper and works best on smooth, non-textured surfaces like painted or primed drywall. Because wood paneling is often textured with grooves, any flaws in the underlying surface will likely be visible after application. To prepare the paneling, you must ensure the surface is free of cracks, holes, and protrusions by filling any indentations and sanding rough spots to create a smooth surface. An alternative is to remove the paneling and apply the wallpaper directly to the underlying drywall or plaster, provided it is in good condition.

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.

The color of the paint, its opacity, and the depth of the texture on the paper all affect how many coats of paint you need to apply to paintable wallpaper. You'll need at least two coats of paint to ensure even coverage. Don’t be surprised if you need to apply three coats if the embossing is very deep or if you use a dark color.

Peel-and-stick wallpaper is designed to be removed without damaging walls, making it a good choice for renters or temporary design changes. However, damage to paint or drywall can occur under certain conditions. To prevent issues, the wall surface must be properly prepared before application—it should be clean, smooth, dry, and correctly primed or painted. Applying wallpaper to a freshly painted surface can cause the paint to peel off during removal. Additionally, removing the wallpaper too quickly or aggressively can also cause damage. For best results, always follow the manufacturer's instructions for both application and removal.
