"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!"

"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."

Wallpapering questions, answered by experts

No, you don’t need to apply paint primer to your wall before hanging paintable wallpaper. Manufacturers design paintable wallpaper so that the paint will adhere effectively, so primer isn’t necessary. Plus, even if you opt for a light shade of paint, you won’t have to worry about the shade underneath showing through because you are painting on a light, white surface.

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.

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.

Ideally, you want to ask the wallpaper installers you’re considering for examples of past work, and references you can call. These will prove that the installer can handle your job, make your room look professional, and will also give you some insight into the kind of customer service you can expect. Before you start calling companies, you might want to narrow down your options by finding installers with mostly positive reviews online.

Yes, you can put wallpaper in a bathroom, but whether it's a good idea depends on several factors. Because bathrooms are high-humidity areas, it's crucial to choose a water-resistant wallpaper, such as one made of vinyl. Proper wall preparation is also critical to ensure the paper adheres well, even after many steamy showers. The wallpaper's placement also affects its longevity; it will hold up better on an accent wall or away from direct water contact, rather than immediately next to a shower. A well-ventilated bathroom will yield the best results.
