"Due to a recent career change, I now work remote. I wanted a freshly painted room for my office at home since I spend a lot of time there. A Hard Day’s Paint went above and beyond my expectations with their professionalism and creativity! They created an absolutely beautiful mural at an affordable cost and I look forward to going “to work” everyday. Would highly recommend!"

"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"

Wallpapering questions, answered by experts

Once again, contact with moisture is the culprit here, though water-resistant varieties of wallpaper are less likely to become wet and develop mold. Using a high-quality exhaust fan or dehumidifier and leaving the doors or windows cracked after bathing will keep this issue at bay. 

No, you don’t always have to remove old wallpaper before applying a new layer. However, you should pull off the existing wallpaper if it’s cracked, peeling, or in poor condition. We’d also recommend against putting wallpaper over textured or dark-colored wallpaper because the old layer may be visible through the new one. In addition, if you try to hang new wallpaper over vinyl-coated wallpaper, the adhesive might not stick properly. 

To layer wallpaper over wallpaper, inspect your existing wallpaper for problem areas. Damaged wallpaper should not be covered. If it’s okay to proceed, prep by turning off the electricity and removing any outlet and switch covers. Dust your walls and lightly rinse them to prevent the existing paper from peeling. Apply primer, then apply your new wallpaper.

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.

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.
