"THIS is the place to call for a great wallpaper job. Kevin has the eye and the patience to do the job right. Prompt, courteous, professional, and experienced…. And he left the room cleaner than when he arrived (And my cat loved him!) I highly recommend Shamrock Wallpaper and Paint and will absolutely use again in the future for any painting or wallpapering. Prices are reasonable and the work is excellent. He was a genius working within a tiny bathroom space to make the prints match up. What a gem! Save yourself time, don’t even look elsewhere. And he left things so clean (I cannot stress that enough)"

"Unfortunately I have to give Thomas and his nephew Sherman 3 out of 5 stars. I say unfortunately bc they were very nice and professional in their demeanor and response times to my initial quote request and during the prep process. Sherman had a lovely demeanor and tried hard. That said, I hired them to professionally paint 3 pieces of furniture (one wood console and 2 metal table frames). Thomas was helpful in guiding me on what primer and paint to purchase at the Benjamin Moore store. They were also flexible on the start time (I needed to do a later afternoon start). Sadly, they were rushed as a result of starting late and prepping my apartment was done poorly. There was paint spray from the spray gun all over my floors, walls and other furniture that was not covered. Upon inspecting the table frame that they claimed was done I noticed that half of the table was not painted properly. As though not enough paint was sprayed on the area and it looked light. Sherman went over those areas with a paint brush but it didn t turn out perfectly. It was oil based paint, took forever to dry and about 2 days in post painting, the legs were completely smudged (badly). The wooden console was nearly a disaster. Paint all over the floor and glass doors which came off eventually but I cleaned it myself. The paint bubbles up in some places and it looked cheaply done. Sherman did come back 2 days later to touch up and clean the mess on the floor. But I d say the damage was done at this point. I ll most likely look to have the wood console re done at some point by another painter. It looks cheap and like a rush job. I know they claimed that it was too dark in my apartment to see well. It may have been but the outcome was poor nonetheless. If you hire Thomas and Sherman, make sure they prep your home thoroughly and that you are overseeing the job. You may risk a poorly done job."

Customers say: True professional

"OnCall Wallpaper has done 7 separate jobs for me- each one more increasingly difficult than the next and each one executed flawlessly which is why we keep coming back!! Gerard is a true pleasure to work with, he is professional, courteous, kind and has very fair, competitive and reasonable pricing. He truly wants to make projects work for his customers. Him and his crew are true masters at their skill - we’ve had him hang high end custom murals, grass cloth, extremely intricate designs that required precise and very difficult matching, strange shaped rooms, small rooms and gigantic rooms, repair work to existing wallpaper, and rooms that needed a ton of wall prep work before they could be wallpapered. Gerard and his team have completed each with stunning precision and care, and in very timely turnarounds. Crew is extremely kind, friendly and tidy. If you are looking for a high end experience, and want your project to come out more beautiful than expected every time- look no further than OnCall for all of your wallpaper needs- no matter the difficulty or size of the project!"

Wallpapering questions, answered by experts

To pair a unique sense of style with white walls, keep them well-decorated. Hang vibrant art or bold furniture to add color to the room. Add some texture and greenery to the space with plants. Choose accent pieces such as throw pillows or light fixtures with patterns. Having a white wall can be a plus as it allows homeowners to easily decorate their homes as they desire without worrying about clashing with the paint color. 

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.

There can be too much of a good thing when it comes to accent walls, so avoid creating one in every room in your house. Some rooms, like bathrooms and kitchens, don’t naturally lend themselves to accent walls, so it’s best to skip them there. Of course, your home should reflect your own sense of style, so if accent walls in multiple rooms appeal to you, there’s no hard-and-fast rule forbidding it.

You should be aware of the current wallpaper and interior trends before hanging it, especially if you are planning on selling or listing your home soon. Do people in your market tend to prefer bold designs and accent walls, or does having a simpler print all over seem like a better idea? Lastly, you want something that appeals to your aesthetic preferences; hanging wallpaper is an investment of your time and money after all.

Hanging wallpaper may seem simple, but in practice it requires significant planning and finesse to make it look professional. To start, you need to get an even application of wallpaper paste across all of your wallpaper, which requires experience and large pasting tables to get right. You also need to plan out your design and match it exactly so that you don’t have imperfections in the finished product. It’s often better to hire a professional wallpaper hanger who can get the job done properly for a clean, smooth finish.
