"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."
"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!"
"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!"
"My powder bathroom is located under a staircase so it has an angled wall and ceiling. I wanted the walls wallpapered. The wallpaper I chose has a 20.5 inch repeat pattern. Jimmy was amazing. Not only is the pattern matched perfectly, I cannot find a single seam without looking very closely. Even then, it is hard to find. Jimmy is very professional. He worked in a fairly small space and there was no mess. He meticulously cleaned up after himself. I highly recommend using him for all your wallpaper needs."
"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."
"I would hire Victor again in a heartbeat. Nicely done and great attention to detail. The original work involved patching and painting a patio and painting intricate entryway gate and window grates, all of which he did perfectly. I was so pleased, I had Victor tackle some stone masonry on our patio pillars. Likewise, his work was perfect."
"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"
Having dated, peeling, or otherwise damaged wallpaper can decrease the value of your property, so removing that before listing your house is nearly always a good idea; however, since wallpaper tends to be a personal style choice, potential buyers may or may not love your aesthetic as much as you do.
Love the look of wallpaper but want to consider property value as well? Stick with something that is easy to change. If you are thinking of selling soon, make sure your wallpaper hanging is on-point and looks professional with no crooked seams, evenly matched patterns, and minimal bubbling or other imperfections.
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.
To layer wallpaper over wallpaper, inspect your existing wallpaper for problem areas. Damaged wallpaper should not be covered. If it’s okay to proceed, prep by turning off the electricity and removing any outlet and switch covers. Dust your walls and lightly rinse them to prevent the existing paper from peeling. Apply primer, then apply your new wallpaper.
No. If you overlap seams, the wallpaper will not come out flat. In addition to possibly throwing off your pattern match between rolls, overlapping seems necessary. If wallpaper is properly acclimated, and temperature and moisture conditions are optimal during installation, there is no reason to fear shrinkage as it dries.
It is less costly to paint than wallpaper when you only consider the upfront cost. Wallpaper costs $320 to $820 when applied by a pro, while paint only costs $200 to $700 per room. However, when comparing wallpaper versus paint, consider the long-term as well. Wallpaper can save you money over time since it has a much longer life span than paint.
