"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

Yes, many installation and painting services include wall preparation, such as patching holes, smoothing surfaces, sanding, and priming. It is recommended to confirm the specific preparations included with your provider.

Both paint and wallpaper can work in a bathroom, provided you choose high-quality products in either category. Washable vinyl wallpapers can stand up to bathroom humidity without peeling, as can semi-gloss or gloss paint finishes. However, if you’re someone who likes to redecorate often, paint may make it easier to change colors or designs more quickly. If you want full humidity protection and cleanability, tile or stone works better.

Wallpaper lasts an average of around 15 years, but there is some variance. The type of wallpaper matters, as vinyl wallpaper tends to last the longest—sometimes 20 years or more—while a peel-and-stick wallpaper, which is the easiest to install for DIYers, will usually only last for around five years. Exposure to high humidity, smoke, and UV rays from sunlight can also limit the lifespan of your wallpaper, as can heavy traffic in the installation area.

If you need a stronger magnetic surface, or you need to use a different type of paint in the room (like waterproof paint in a damp basement), there are other accessible options. You could fit a steel panel over the wall, try magnetic wallpaper, or apply chalk paint instead. 

If you want an inexpensive shortcut, hang a pinboard or chalkboard on your wall. These removable options are ideal if you’re a renter who can’t repaint or plan to move in the near future.

While peel-and-stick wallpapers require no time to cure, the adhesives for other types of papers will take a day or two to dry and up to three weeks to fully cure. The differences are the type of paper, the type of adhesive, and the humidity and temperature in the space.
