SPECIALIZING IN PAINTING / PAPERING / REPAIRS I started painting for Glenn Rahn & Sons Painting & Wallpapering in the 1970’s and 80’s. Glenn Rahn & Sons was a fifty plus year Whitesboro based business with my Grandfather ( Glenn ) , my father ( Reg ) and my uncle ( Doug ) . My father and uncle retired in 2000. I left the business in 1984 to pursue a career in the Aviation business. I worked as a Mechanic / Inspector, maintaining, repairing and Inspecting Aircraft and components for USAIRWAYS and repair facilities. In 1997 I purchased a 25 unit AAA motel in Utica and held it to high standards before selling in 2009. I have a background in Painting, Wallpapering, Aircraft maintenance, Building maintenance and customer service.

Wallpapering questions, answered by experts

Walls should be as smooth as possible before applying peel-and-stick wallpaper. Although you technically can apply wallpaper on textured walls, the peel-and-stick variety won’t last long without a clean, smooth surface for the adhesive to stick to. If you have textured walls, consult a pro about removing the textured finish before moving forward with wallpaper.

While it is possible to paint over wallpaper, it’s not always ideal. If the wallpaper is firmly adhered, has no bubbling or peeling, and isn’t textured, you can try to prime and paint over it. Use an oil-based primer to prevent the adhesive from bleeding through. However, if the paper is damaged or loose, removal is the better long-term solution.

You can wallpaper and paint over certain types of wallpaper, but it’s usually a better idea to remove it first. Removing the wallpaper and prepping the wall before painting is a good way to guarantee a smooth finish that looks professional. If you ever have a moisture or water issue after painting over wallpaper, the paper will bubble and damage your wall. Additionally, you should never paint over wallpaper already peeling or otherwise damaged, as this will leave obvious imperfections in your wall and could lead to additional problems.

Spring and fall are the best seasons to apply wallpaper because excessively hot or cold temperatures can cause issues with the paste used to attach the paper to the wall. A professional wallpaper hanger can help you decide if your home is too hot, cold, humid, or dry for the wallpaper to stick properly.

Textured or patterned vinyl wallpaper designs are the best option for hiding imperfections. Embossed designs or faux finishes like brick, wood, or linen textures are especially effective at camouflaging dents, cracks, or uneven surfaces. Avoid smooth, shiny finishes, as they can highlight flaws rather than conceal them.
