"Johnny and Natalie were awesome! They did a great job wallpapering the bathroom and kitchen as well as some painting in the bathroom. They are thoughtful and conscientious. I would definitely have them back!"

"I cannot express how impressed and thrilled I am with the work and painting done by Reyes. I started with one small bathroom. They were so good that I ended up having my master bathroom redone, the master bedroom painted, the living room, the kitchen, and now the exterior of my 33 year old cedar shake home (last painted in 2009). I’ve never so much have found a trace or tiny droplet of paint anywhere! Meticulous, respectful, friendly, knowledgeable and talented. I highly recommend Reyes for any job (I also had new vanities put in both bathrooms, new flooring in the bathrooms and kitchen (my master bathroom needed an entire new subfloor). They installed all of the plumbing, new lighting fixtures, mirrors, cabinets, and again, the painting is perfect. You will not find a more dependable, affordable and talented team. Reyes takes pride in their work, and it shows! Barbara Satterlee"

Wallpaper Removal questions, answered by experts

Peel-and-stick wallpaper is designed to be removed without damaging walls, making it a good choice for renters or temporary design changes. However, damage to paint or drywall can occur under certain conditions. To prevent issues, the wall surface must be properly prepared before application—it should be clean, smooth, dry, and correctly primed or painted. Applying wallpaper to a freshly painted surface can cause the paint to peel off during removal. Additionally, removing the wallpaper too quickly or aggressively can also cause damage. For best results, always follow the manufacturer's instructions for both application and removal.

Yes, most professionals patch and smooth walls after removal to prepare for new finishes.

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.

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.

While you can remove wallpaper yourself, it is a labor-intensive process that risks damaging your walls. Common DIY methods include using a steamer to loosen the adhesive or spraying the paper with a solution of hot water and vinegar or dish soap before scraping. However, steamers can cause irreparable damage if used incorrectly, and the spray-and-scrape method can harm drywall if it gets too wet or you scrape too aggressively. For these reasons, hiring a professional is often the fastest, easiest, and safest option. A pro has the experience and specialized tools to remove wallpaper efficiently without damaging the underlying surface, which saves time and minimizes the prep work needed for your next wall treatment.
