Wallpaper costs <b>$320 to $820</b> when applied by a pro, while paint only costs <b>$200 to $700 per room</b>. However, when comparing <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/pros-and-cons-wallpaper-vs-paint.htm">wallpaper versus paint</a>, consider the long-term as well.

Q: What is included in a typical paint job?

• <div><p>The typical paint job includes all necessary <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/6-steps-prepare-your-home-exterior-paint.htm">prep work</a>, one or more coats of paint as specified by the contract, and cleanup.

Q: Is it better to paint brick with a roller or brush?

• <div><p>A roller makes an excellent paint tool for brick. Using a roller can ensure the entire surface area gets painted evenly. If you choose a roller for painting brick, go for a thicker option, at least a half-inch. The key to using a roller while painting brick is making sure paint gets into the various crevices for even coverage.</p></div>

Q: Is it OK to paint over dirty walls?

• <div><p>Dirty or not, you should always <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-clean-walls.htm">clean the wall</a> beforehand. Even if the wall looks sparkling clean to the naked eye, it&rsquo;s good practice to wipe it down with a damp rag and mild detergent. Leftover dirt, dust, and residue can create unsightly textures or interfere with the paint&rsquo;s adherence to the wall. You&rsquo;ll never regret cleaning it, but you might regret skipping this step.</p></div>
