"Great job by MK GC. We had a small but tricky painting/wallpapering/tile job and they did a great job. They were exactly on time, on budget, and completed everything plus another item I added at the last minute. Will definitely be using them again."

"Had paneling removed from plaster walls that were glued on. Robert gave a very fair price and was cost concious. All the spots were the plaster came off had to be spackled. For the final coat he inspected very closely to see any spots that needed to be touched up.He cleaned up daily and the final clean up was excellent. I would recommend him."

"George and his team did a four story gut renovation for us in Brooklyn. His team did an amazing and wonderful job. The project was done quickly upon the agreed time frame. His workers arrived early everyday and worked on Saturdays and Holidays. The work consisted of new interior staircases, window, doors , flooring, electrical, plumbing, three new bathrooms, two kitchens, full basement. Give Picasso Expert Renovations a phone call. You won't regret it. I highly recommend them."

"Jay came for leaky windows issue - 4th floor of condo building. Let's ignore the fact that Jay did a great job! Jay did more than that. I truly and deeply appreciate how he easily and clearly explained to me the problem at hand, the causes, and the remedy he was going to undertake to get this task done. I'm so use to the "... I'm here, where's the problem... ok - work is done.." treatment. Jay & company will be my go-to. You will not be upset in doing the same!"

"It was a difficult project requiring the removal of current siding, then significant patching, sanding and carpentry to prepare the original clapboard for paint. The crew was very hard working and super creative when it came to solving problems. They showed up on time every day and finished the project according to schedule. The price was very reasonable and no surprise charges. We are very pleased with AAA and would highly recommend them."

"John and his crew did a wonderful job painting the exterior of my home. We also had the deck redone as well. We had a lot of peeling paint on our house as well as a ton of mildew growing on the north side of our home. They used a professional solution to kill the mildew and assured me the chemicals would not harm any vegetation. Which it did not. They started by power washing my home to remove surface dirt and grime. They did the nessesary prep work and gave our home one coat of primer and two coats of paint. Outstanding Results! Our deck was sun beaten and worn. Had a few loose boards and popped nails. Being the handy team they have come to prove to be they had no problems fixing and repairing all my request. John being very knowledgeable recommended we use a solid color stain to help hide the weather beaten imperfections. GREAT ADVICE! I would have never thought of it. The deck almost looks new. And with the repairs it's blends the new wood with old quit nicely. Getting to know John the days him and his crew spent working on my home I asked him to give me quote on changing the wall paper in my home office. He explained to me the downfalls of wallpaper removal. And how it all depends on the person who installed the paper. If it was properly done it would not effect the estimate given. But if the wallpaper was NOT installed properly a reassessment of the job would have to be discussed. Turns out it was NOT installed properly and was actually damaging the walls upon removal. John being professional that he is assured me he would keep the cost as low as possible. In which he did. Instead of replacing the sheet rock. They skim coated the walls sanded them to perfection and painted them perfectly. SO GLAD I FOUND THESE GUYS!!!"

Wallpaper Removal FAQs, answered by experts

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.

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. 

You may end up with extra wallpaper once your project is finished. Hang on to that wallpaper, as you may need to use it to patch up areas that get damaged later on. If you have a lot of excess wallpaper, try getting creative with it. You can use it to line the inside of a cabinet or drawers, for example.

Wallpaper steamers can be very helpful for removing large sections of wallpaper more easily, but they’re not always a good idea for DIYers. The drywall behind your wallpaper is meant to stay dry, and excessive moisture from improper technique with a wallpaper steamer can leave you with severe wall damage. Drywall also retains moisture, which could result in mold growth over time. It’s best to hire a professional to remove your wallpaper with a steamer to avoid wall damage and related moisture issues.

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.
