"I highly recommend this company. I was given a great price and all work was done perfectly. I have an 18’ ceiling that was also painted which required scaffolding to do it. Alberto and his team took great care to protect my wood floors while using their scaffolds and the work was done quickly and cleanly. No drips, all paint lines were sharp and straight. My house was spotless when they left. Needless to say… I was very impressed with their work. I will be using them again in the near future and suggest that if you need painting to give New Sunrise Painting a call."

"We couldn't be happier with the interior and exterior work by Rich and the TruCare Painters team! We hadn't worked with TruCare before, and contacted them after reading many positive reviews online. We started with a phone call then an appropriately socially-distanced onsite visit due to COVID. I work in tech, and was particularly impressed with the detailed proposals Rich was able to generate and email to me while onsite. Pricing was consistent with what we expected, and we were able to schedule the work pretty quickly after accepting the proposals. We have a traditional New England saltbox house. The exterior project included cleaning and staining the cedar shake siding, and painting the foundation, gutters, and trim. The interior project included painting walls, ceiling, and trim throughout much of the house, including a 20' living room ceiling with exposed beams. We appreciated the advice with regard to color selection, and assistance obtaining samples and testing them in various areas and lighting conditions to ensure they were right. The crew was professional and polite, fun to have around, and always went the extra mile to answer any questions or address issues we were concerned about. It was a great experience overall. Highly recommended!"

"Fantastic - Eugene Miller, the owner, took the job because it promised to be difficult (!). The house had not been painted in a long while; there was work needed to prepare the siding; it was the middle of fall. Most impressively, the peeling and roughened wooden garage door had to be done three times until he was satisfied. He was up-front with all estimates; provided good advice for color and design; his team worked fast and hard; he was proud of the work at the end. We will have him back. He said he doesn't do any work that he doesn't know how to do well."

"The service was fantastic. He had a pattern and recommended some ideas like three coatings and he did a sample like a primer and the coating. I highly recommend him. I was very happy with the service and the work he did. It was cheaper than other companies too."

"J & D was the best choice I made. They did a great job at painting and fixing a hole in my ceiling. John was professional and courteous and really worked with my budget. He even did work outside of the painting and it turned out great. I'm very pleased and would highly recommend them to anybody. Definitely a number I'm going to keep in my books for the next time I need work done."

Wallpapering questions, answered by experts

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.

You shouldn’t need extra adhesive for peel-and-stick backsplash tile. The adhesive on the back of the tile sheets should do the trick. However, if you experience issues with the tile peeling or falling off, make sure the wall you’re working on isn’t textured, as that can prevent the materials from properly adhering.

One of the biggest downsides to peel-and-stick wallpaper is that it doesn't last as long as traditional wallpaper. Its lifespan depends on several factors, including the quality of the paper, proper wall preparation and application, and the room's conditions. As a general rule, peel-and-stick wallpaper can last for at least five years, but this can vary significantly. Budget products may only last about 3 years, while higher-quality products can stay up for 7 years or more in ideal conditions. Factors that can shorten its lifespan include high humidity (such as in a bathroom), dirty walls, and low-quality paper. If used on flooring, expect it to last only 1 to 3 years unless sealed. However, the shorter lifespan can be seen as a positive, making it a great choice for people who enjoy switching up their interiors more frequently.

Having dated, peeling, or otherwise damaged wallpaper can decrease the value of your property, so removing that before listing your house is nearly always a good idea; however, since wallpaper tends to be a personal style choice, potential buyers may or may not love your aesthetic as much as you do.

Love the look of wallpaper but want to consider property value as well? Stick with something that is easy to change. If you are thinking of selling soon, make sure your wallpaper hanging is on-point and looks professional with no crooked seams, evenly matched patterns, and minimal bubbling or other imperfections.

It’s possible to hang your own wallpaper, but the process is tedious and potentially frustrating, and it can be challenging to get seams to line up and look clean and professional. Plus, depending on the type of wallpaper you’re installing, using too much or too little adhesive could cause damage to your drywall or plaster, peeling, and bubbling in the final product. It’s usually a better idea to hire a professional wallpaper installer to do the work for you, as the relatively low cost is justifiable, if only to avoid damage to your walls.
