"I recently had several rooms painted by R &R Painting and Restoration. I was very pleased with the results. The work was done in a very professional way. Rick arrived on time each day and completed the job as per the estimate. He was neat and completely cleaned up each day. He did a great job and I would recommend him for your next painting project!!"

"Very nice family of four, instead of the promised two, but only one of them?Scott?  really a professional. I made the mistake of asking for an estimate to do an additional job for an extra (very reasonable) fee and therefore  the prepping for that (on the 23rd) and the follow-up on the 24th ( the scheduled painting day) came out of the pre-paid for time. This was really my fault , I now realize, for not sticking to the original program strictly which one should do with deals like this.  The extra job ended up not being done, depite the investment of time becasue the surface of the wall did not accept the repairs done to it. To illustrate the problem SCott began to chip off small  sections of the wall and thereby made it worse. The clock was ticking , though and so the three rooms that were to be done in the day that was prepaid were left without most of the trim being painted. And we still do not have a new day on which to complete the job. So all my furniture and art work are in disarray for another week. 
Another problem is that my leather couch was spattered with white paint. Drop cloths were used but the furniture must have been moved to paint the ceiling at some point and so the couch is probably ruined. I have tried numerous cleansers with caution to no avail. This is a big reason to be unhappy but Scott has said that he is in touch with furniture people that will advise him about how to remove paint from leather.
The price was too good to be true. In retrospect I realize that the painters were trying very hard not to lose too much money on this job and maybe rushing it thereby causing the damage. They are nice people and may be worthy of being given more work, but one needs to be vigilant and be sure that proper protection is done to furniture that is too heavy to move out of the painted rooms.
I may have them come back and do the repair that was begun...if they call me again. ANd if they clean up the couch...We shall see.

"She did a great job. She was very responsive when we called her. She came to the house to measure and give advice as to what type of paper to buy for the application that we wanted. We ordered the paper, and then as soon as it came in, we called her again and she was here within days. That is great. We had tried to do the silk wallpaper ourselves previously and it was a disaster."

Wallpapering questions, answered by experts

No, you don’t need to apply paint primer to your wall before hanging paintable wallpaper. Manufacturers design paintable wallpaper so that the paint will adhere effectively, so primer isn’t necessary. Plus, even if you opt for a light shade of paint, you won’t have to worry about the shade underneath showing through because you are painting on a light, white surface.

Hanging wallpaper may seem simple, but in practice it requires significant planning and finesse to make it look professional. To start, you need to get an even application of wallpaper paste across all of your wallpaper, which requires experience and large pasting tables to get right. You also need to plan out your design and match it exactly so that you don’t have imperfections in the finished product. It’s often better to hire a professional wallpaper hanger who can get the job done properly for a clean, smooth finish.

Yes, many types of peel-and-stick wallpaper can be used in bathrooms, especially those made of vinyl or polyester. However, its success depends heavily on the level of moisture and ventilation. In bathrooms with good ventilation, such as those with fans, it can be a durable option. Peel-and-stick wallpaper may not adhere as well as traditional wallpaper in very humid conditions. For bathrooms that see a lot of moisture, like a kids' bathroom or a full bath with a steamy shower and poor ventilation, even high-quality peel-and-stick wallpaper is likely to peel over time.

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.

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.
