"Tom did an outstanding job and we are very happy with his wallpaper installation in two rooms of our house. He was very responsive in the weeks leading up to the project, responding almost immediately to texts I sent with questions. He showed up on time and completed the project in one day, like he said he would. Hanging wallpaper can be tricky but the job he did is beautiful and friends and family keep complimenting his work."
"I just had work done on two bedrooms, which consisted of removing wallpaper and painting. Alfonzo and Harold did a fantastic job. They arrived on time every day and were very professional. They removed the wallpaper, skim coated and spackled the walls to perfection, The walls are as smooth as silk, a work of art. They were very clean and the work was completed on time. Highly recommend"
"Wilber and his crew were very professional, punctual and delivered what they promised. Will definitely hire them again for many other drywall, wallpaper removal and painting jobs I have planned in my home."
"I would highly recommend Philip from Mega Painting. He was a delight to work with, he was very neat and did a beautiful job. Don't hesitate to call him you won't be sorry. I would give him more 5 stars if I could."

"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."
The two most common reasons wallpaper does not stick are a lack of preparation and improper adhesive. Be sure to use the wallpaper paste designed for the type of paper you choose. Before beginning your project, make sure the walls are clean and free of dust, grease, and oils.
Common mistakes when finishing basement walls include neglecting proper insulation, insufficient moisture management, and poor ventilation. Not addressing these issues can lead to mold growth, water damage, and discomfort. Additionally, inadequate planning, improper framing, and rushing the project can result in subpar outcomes.
It's essential to follow best practices, seek professional guidance if needed, and prioritize thoroughness and attention to detail.
Painting over wallpaper is an efficient way to cover it if it’s in decent shape. Before painting over wallpaper, make sure the surface is clean and smooth. You may have to remove minor problem areas, such as lifted seams or small peels, with a sheetrock knife or putty knife. Add a latex- or oil-based primer to keep moisture at bay before painting. You’ll likely need two coats of paint to cover the area.
If you prefer peel-and-stick to traditional wallpaper, you can skip the priming process. Many manufacturers don't require an additional primer if you’re installing peel-and-stick wallpaper to painted walls. However, if you’re applying peel-and-stick wallpaper to unfinished drywall, you’ll need to apply a primer first.
The color of the paint, its opacity, and the depth of the texture on the paper all affect how many coats of paint you need to apply to paintable wallpaper. You'll need at least two coats of paint to ensure even coverage. Don’t be surprised if you need to apply three coats if the embossing is very deep or if you use a dark color.
