"Mike and his team were a joy to work with. They provided a fair quote and scheduled our job very quickly. Mike also ensured all of our questions were answered before we agreed to doing the job. They showed up on time, did a fantastic job wallpapering our half bath and cleaned up when they left. The wallpaper job was outstanding and really adds to our home. The whole experience was great. I will absolutely recommend Richie Wallcoverings to my friends and neighbors and hope to work with them myself in the future."

"Miguel was efficient and very easy to work with. The wallpaper removal was not an easy task, but he got it done and painted. We are definitely pleased with the results. We're having him back for another job too."

"ABS Painting (Tony) did an outstanding job. He was on time to provide the estimate and on time each day to paint.He was very neat & professional, covered all areas, and cleaned up each night. His edge work was spot on. There was a tremendous amount of repair work needed on the walls due to "nail pops" and nail holes He spackled and sanded all. The walls look like new. He did a FABULOUS job and would DEFINITELY hire him again. Definitely recommend!"

"Star painting power washed and painted the whole exterior of our house 5 years ago. It has held up extremely well. We had some damage recently and called them to repair it. They were incredibly responsive & completed all the work going above and beyond in honoring our warranty on the work. Often times one is disappointed that people don't stand behind their work, but Star painting did - 5 years later - and even when the damage was not related to their work. I recommend them fully to anyone looking for quality work, and professionalism with customers. The cost of service quoted in this review is the original cost - they did not charge us for the recent repairs which was incredible!"

"Called precision paint and power washing to stain my fence which had never been done before, I was going to paint it but they suggested to stain instead and I’m so glad I did.. it will last so much longer and looks great. They also painted my kids bathroom and there bedroom.. did a accent wall with big lines on it and my son loves it.. very nice people."

Wallpapering FAQs, answered by experts

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.

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. 

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.

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.

Options include bricks, natural stone, and concrete blocks. Choose based on durability, aesthetics, and budget.
