"My husband and I got this beautiful new wallpaper installed in our baby nursery today and it turned out amazing! I'm so pleased with the professionalism and quality work that Jimmy did. Definitely recommend!"
"Norbert did a great job at our place. He & his crew removed the popcorn ceiling throughout our home. He then hand-textured the ceiling and re-painted it. He also painted our 30 year old homes wood paneling to include painting our dated wallpaper. Norbert re-painted our kitchen cabinets using a two color pattern we had selected in consultation with him. He also suggested we continue that two color pattern into our breakfast nook. That suggestion really enhanced the overall look of our kitchen. Norbert is a professional who took the time needed to do the prep work which is essential to a quality paint job. His cleanup was excellent and he ensured all of our needs were met prior to final payment. It was great working with Norbert and I would definitely use his services again. I highly recommend Fast Trac Painting & Drywall."
"It went very well! Each day a picture of the lead contractor was sent as he was on the way. First day power wash. Second day tape and general exterior (2600 sq ft house) painted. Third day 3 different trim colors and shutters painted and cleanup. House looks wonderful! Highly recommend!"
"After a disappointing experience with another wallpaper installer who completely botched the job, wasting $1800 on ruined wallpaper, we decided to give Seamingly Straight and Jimmy a try based on strong recommendations. We're so glad we did! Jimmy not only removed the previous installer’s work but also carefully re-primed and sanded the walls before expertly hanging the new wallpaper. It was no easy task, as the wallpaper was being installed on a vaulted wall — a challenge that the first contractor clearly didn’t have the experience to handle. Not only did Jimmy get the job done perfectly, but he also showed up on time, kept the work area tidy, and even won the hearts of our dogs. He was a pleasure to have around, sharing fascinating stories about his life along the way. We couldn't be more pleased with the results and wholeheartedly recommend his services!"
"They did a spectacular job. They knew what types of paint and colors works the best for the material and the house. My house looks brand new. Thx guys for an honest and great job."
"imedThe provider was given all of the materials and followed the directions perfectly so that there were no delays. Job was finished on time. The provider sander the previously primed area and textured the area after everything had dried. Finally, the provider, the provider painted the final coat. "
"They have done a magnificent job. They are amazing. They are professional and it was an interior paint job. They painted the wall, ceilings, baseboards and doors. They also assisted with choosing the colors that I should go with. I will highly recommend them"
Textured or patterned vinyl wallpaper designs are the best option for hiding imperfections. Embossed designs or faux finishes like brick, wood, or linen textures are especially effective at camouflaging dents, cracks, or uneven surfaces. Avoid smooth, shiny finishes, as they can highlight flaws rather than conceal them.
One of the biggest downsides to peel-and-stick wallpaper is that it doesn't last as long as traditional wallpaper. Its lifespan depends on several factors, including the quality of the paper, proper wall preparation and application, and the room's conditions. As a general rule, peel-and-stick wallpaper can last for at least five years, but this can vary significantly. Budget products may only last about 3 years, while higher-quality products can stay up for 7 years or more in ideal conditions. Factors that can shorten its lifespan include high humidity (such as in a bathroom), dirty walls, and low-quality paper. If used on flooring, expect it to last only 1 to 3 years unless sealed. However, the shorter lifespan can be seen as a positive, making it a great choice for people who enjoy switching up their interiors more frequently.
Ideally, you want to ask the wallpaper installers you’re considering for examples of past work, and references you can call. These will prove that the installer can handle your job, make your room look professional, and will also give you some insight into the kind of customer service you can expect. Before you start calling companies, you might want to narrow down your options by finding installers with mostly positive reviews online.
In most cases, it is not recommended to wallpaper over existing wallpaper, as the success depends on the type of paper already on the wall. While you might be able to cover non-coated wallpaper, you should never apply new wallpaper over a vinyl-coated one, which is more common. Doing so can lead to poor adhesion, resulting in bubbles, imperfections, and peeling. It can also trap moisture, potentially causing hazardous mold growth between the layers.
Even if the existing wallpaper is suitable, experts recommend applying only one new layer. Adding multiple layers (more than two total) can cause significant adhesion problems, leading to warping and bubbling. For the best results, the recommended approach is to remove the old wallpaper and all paste residue before hanging the new paper. If you are unsure about your wallpaper type, consider consulting a professional.
Painting over wallpaper is an efficient way to cover it if it’s in decent shape. Before painting over wallpaper, make sure the surface is clean and smooth. You may have to remove minor problem areas, such as lifted seams or small peels, with a sheetrock knife or putty knife. Add a latex- or oil-based primer to keep moisture at bay before painting. You’ll likely need two coats of paint to cover the area.
