"Julio merino completed not only the drywall job I needed done, he also completed a difficult task that I spent weeks trying to find someone to accomplish. He was polite, clean, meticulous and reasonably priced. I would recommend him."

"I called and happened to get Steve right away and since he was in the area he came right over. He examined the blind to determine if it could be fixed without a replacement piece and since it could he did the repairt quickly and efficiently. He was reasonable and very pleasant."

"Danny and his crew showed up promptly.  Everyday Danny either worked alongside his men or stopped in to see how the work was progressing.  The care that he and his crew took in closing off the rooms with plastic wrap was incredible.  My mother has some bronchial issues and she was not phased by even one speck of dust.  They were so amazingly careful about containing all of it.  They vacuumed thoroughly every evening when the day's work was completed so that there was no impact on her daily coming and going.  The work took longer than originally estimated because the living room and dining room ceilings had been blackened from years of my father's cigar smoke.  Danny was so fussy that he ended up priming the ceilings three times.  The  bathroom wallpaper in two of the bathrooms which had been up for 30 years was also difficult to remove.  Danny paid attention to every detail and went above and beyond what I expected.  It was clear that he takes pride in his work.  Everything looked clean and crisp and wonderful when the work was completed. 
Danny and his men did a terrific job removing and putting back everything on the walls.  The also took great care in handling my mother's breakables (and there were many).   They were also a really good bunch of guys.
I would highly recommend Allstar Painting and Construction Corp and would use them again.  Danny was a pleasure to work with.

"A and Z did wallpaper in my daughters room and did an amazing job. They were available the next day after I contacted them, brought all their own materials, and finished the job in under an hour. The wallpaper looks absolutely gorgeous you can’t see any seams and everything is beautiful!"

"While there was some early miscommunication on when we should meet for an estimate and a change of installation day, Gerard was thorough, efficient, left the area in excellent condition and installed the wallpaper perfectly. While it was a small job, it required some extra work, which Gerard executed perfectly. I would recommend On Call Wallpapering. Thank you, Gerard."

Wallpaper Removal questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

To remove pre-pasted wallpaper, you’ll need to wet the wallpaper or steam it to loosen the paste on the back of the wallpaper. Spray the paper with water, then let it soak for 10 to 20 minutes. From there, you should be able to peel off the wallpaper. Then, you may need to follow up with a cleaning solution and a scraper to remove any remaining wallpaper paste on the walls.

Hiring a professional wallpaper hanger is usually a worthwhile idea because, while the application of wallpaper itself is easy, getting the finished product to look good is complicated and takes a lot of practice and patience. A professional wallpaper hanger will not only be able to hang your wallpaper seamlessly, but they will also get an even application of wallpaper paste to avoid bubbling and imperfections immediately and over time. Plus, they can provide their professional opinion on whether to remove or wallpaper over an existing layer of wallpaper.

The cost varies from $1 to $3 per square foot, depending on the type of wallpaper, the wall condition, and the labor involved.
