"February 2020 my family experienced a house fire resulting in heavy smoke damage. No room was untouched and repair to the walls involved everything from wall paper removal, surface prep, and priming to repainting EVERY surface in an older house with many unusual surface finishes, such as decades old wallpaper stuck to hollow core doors. John’s team did an amazing job, the finished product came out beautifully. Most importantly, everything was communicated clearly so I was comfortable with it during a personally stressful time, and invoicing was easy. Also, during the unexpected disruption of NY on Pause due to COVID-19 John’s team adhered to the new safety guidelines and still finished the job on time. The photos for the review are in areas that were previously wallpapered in at least three kinds of paper."

"I have worked with Tom on multiple occasions. He did a remodel of my bathroom. He is also removing all wallpaper from every room in my house. This has required repairing plaster walls and painting after. He does an amazing job. His customer service is top notch. I would recommend him to anyone."

Wallpapering questions, answered by experts

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

If you can already see the texture of the existing wallpaper through the layer of paint, then the texture could also come through the new layer of wallpaper. If that’s the aesthetic you want, then proceed. But if you want a smoother surface, you should either strip off the existing paint and wallpaper or hang a layer of liner paper before proceeding.

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. 

Yes, you can put wallpaper in a bathroom, but whether it's a good idea depends on several factors. Because bathrooms are high-humidity areas, it's crucial to choose a water-resistant wallpaper, such as one made of vinyl. Proper wall preparation is also critical to ensure the paper adheres well, even after many steamy showers. The wallpaper's placement also affects its longevity; it will hold up better on an accent wall or away from direct water contact, rather than immediately next to a shower. A well-ventilated bathroom will yield the best results.

There can be too much of a good thing when it comes to accent walls, so avoid creating one in every room in your house. Some rooms, like bathrooms and kitchens, don’t naturally lend themselves to accent walls, so it’s best to skip them there. Of course, your home should reflect your own sense of style, so if accent walls in multiple rooms appeal to you, there’s no hard-and-fast rule forbidding it.
