"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 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."
"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."
"This is an old apartment with plaster walls that crack easily. Sammy did a wonderful job repairing these plaster walls and painting them. He installed a vinyl plank floor in the kitchen and did other minor repairs. He works hard and keeps his appointments. Ditto for his helpers."
"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!"
"James was very pleasant to deal with--- polite, professional and answered all my questions. His crew was also kind and professional and completed the work in one day. Upon finishing, they did a pretty good job in cleaning up which was nice."
Accent walls can feel out of place or distracting if not well designed. Accent walls that don’t fit in with a room’s style can feel jarring or overpowering. Some accent wall styles can also feel dated, but fortunately, it’s easier to update a single wall than an entire room.
The average cost to install or hang wallpaper is around $575 per room or project, with typical prices ranging from $200 to $1,500. Costs can be higher for custom or luxury products. Since project size varies, it's often helpful to estimate labor costs per square foot, which generally fall between $1 and $7, with an average of $4 per square foot. The total cost depends on several factors, including the quality and type of wallpaper, the size and type of the room, and whether old wallpaper must be removed first. Opting for less expensive materials like peel-and-stick wallpaper or choosing to do the installation yourself can lower the overall cost. For the most accurate estimate, it is best to have a professional inspect the space and provide a quote.
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.
While textured walls can elevate a space in many ways, there are a couple of downsides to consider. Namely, they’re hard to clean, and some textures fall out of fashion quickly. Make sure to consider all your options to find one you truly love before diving in.
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.
