I hired Steve to hang wallpaper in my apartment, and I couldn't be more pleased with the results. His attention to detail was exceptional, ensuring a flawless finish that exceeded my expectations. While he may have taken a bit longer than anticipated, the meticulous workmanship was well worth the wait. Steve brought a delightful sense of humor to the job. His friendly chatter and funny jokes added a personal touch to the entire experience, making the process not only professional but also enjoyable.

Not professional and did not do anything that he said he could. He jaggedly cut my custom mural, that was covering a new wall. which had been painted months earlier, much longer than the 30 days the mural company suggests. He worked one area so much that it pulled up the paint, would not stick anymore, and was not a seamless lay. He then tried to fix it with Elmer's glue. Then he kept saying his work was unacceptable, which it was not. I had to kick him out of my house.

For our company, one of the largest provider of store displays in the USA, Steve provided new store displays with decorative plaster, paint and gloss plaster. Steve did three jobs total: 1. Plastered a strong decorative cement veneer finish on medium density fiberboard shelving to appear like heavy concrete. 2. Plastered a decorative multi-color finish and varnished MDF on all faces of product displays. 3. Plastered a cosmetic counter display with gloss polished plaster. The work was top quality, and the final results were extremely high end. A true artist at heart. Highly recommended.
Response from Steve Romanelli Wallcovering

"Thanks for the creative projects. The collaboration between our companies and your clients business to deliver successful finished store displays is like navigating a ship to a destination. While I was below deck fueling the engines with plaster samples and finishing the displays you Mr. R. were in the captains bridge steering the ship to happiness."

Stephen is a true master of his craft. We were fortunate to work with him. He took the time and effort to do measure twice cut once - which is exactly what you want with something like an 10x12 wallpaper mural. Details matter - and he executed flawlessly. Will work together again.

Steve did an incredible job and is a true professional! He made sure that we ordered enough wallpaper for the job, and was able to help us with this via email exchanges. Steve protected our new floors, with clean drop cloths and blue tape on the base boards and side wall. Since we had a new house with new walls, it was necessary to put two sealer coats - a special sealer and regular wallpaper sealer were needed to firm up the painted wall. The next day (after the sealer dried) Steve returned to install three rolls of wallpaper. The nursery looks great, and we are happy that we worked with Steve on this project!

We are so happy with the work that Steve did on our bathroom. This was no easy job, the walls of our bathroom were in quite the state when we moved into our house. It was very hard to find someone who took care of both the prep work as well as the wallpapering. Steve was very thorough in explaining what would need to be done before he applied wallpaper, and he is meticulous in his work. You can tell he really cares about his craft. I want to wallpaper my whole house now! Heehee! If you're looking for someone who is an expert at wallpapering, look no further.
Response from Steve Romanelli Wallcovering

"Thank you Ms. V. for your generous review. This bath took a lot of work - plaster skim coating and wallpapering. The customer Ms. V. says "the walls of our bathroom were in quite the state". What she is saying is that about 90% of the walls in this old house bathroom had peeling paint and failing plaster - plaster that would fall down if you touched it. I protected her new bath tub with rigid foam board and plywood and the tile walls and floor with plastic. I pulled down all the failing plaster and peeling paint. I sealed with a special primer to allow the plaster to adhere to the walls. I skim coated the walls 3 times to very smooth for the new wallpaper. The plaster skim coats took 2 more coats of primer/ sealer. Wallpaper was applied shortly after. Thank you Ms. V. for saying "meticulous in his work" and "he really cares about his craft". Yes I am meticulous and I care."

Steve is a pro, that's all that needs to be said. But I'll go on. Steve makes wallpapering look effortless, which if you've ever tried to do it yourself, you'll know that's not the case. He is courteous, communicative, punctual, and a master of his craft. This is the second job he's done for me and both came out beautifully. Steve guarantees his work for a year, so of there's ever a problem, he will come back and fix it, which is great to know. He is worth every penny of what he charges, which is reasonable.
Response from Steve Romanelli Wallcovering

"Thank you Ms. W. I am pleased you liked it. This was actually two 100" by 100" murals on a wall approximately 16 feet wide by 8 feet high. The murals have four 25" by 100" sheets or panels that the pattern is designed to connect to the next four panels. The murals are "peel and stick". Peel off a paper backing and match the pattern. The link below is the mural I installed and has two sizes 100" and 125". https://www.uniqstiq.com/products/vintage-large-floral-mix-wallpaper-mural?variant=39491321299131"

It went great. Steve had done another room for me previously, so I wanted to hire him again. He was patient and good humored and did an expert job, which took longer than expected. It was worth every penny. I highly recommend Romanelli Wallcovering.

Steve has a great eye for detail and perfection. He wasn't willing to do a half-assed job and wanted to make sure we understood that the wall wasn't perfectly flat and might have some shadows after he installed the wallpaper. We were grateful for his honesty and had him install anyways. He primed first and then installed textured wallpaper, ivory color. It looks amazing. Would hire him again for sure!
Response from Steve Romanelli Wallcovering

"Thanks for the the amazing review Ms. M. Thanks for noticing my honesty and attention to detail. I do good work. Whatever is required to make the wallpaper look good to great is what I do."

Steven was very professional and proactive. He delivered a very quick bid and was extremely thorough in follow up!
Response from Steve Romanelli Wallcovering

"Thank you Sir. The job was a one wall / one day install of non-woven wallpaper about 18' by 7' height. The short height is because it was in a basement. The cost was $435.00."

Steve was a pleasure to work with! He was incredibly thorough and precise. My walls came out great. He offered a lot of helpful explanation on the work he was doing. Would hire again or recommend to anyone.
Response from Steve Romanelli Wallcovering

"That is nice - thank you. This was a small wall of "peel and stick" plastic wallcovering. Peel and stick is similar to shelf contact paper but wider and 8' high and less adhesive stick."

Steve did a great job and would absolutely hire him again for any wallpaper work. He came on time everyday and the work was perfect. We had a intricate repeat pattern on the wallpaper and he was able to align it very carefully. Great Work and highly recommended.
Response from Steve Romanelli Wallcovering

"Thank you. Years ago I did wallpaper in an apartment in this Brooklyn building with three apartments. This year the apartment owners had me install heavyweight commercial vinyl in the lobby and three feature walls on the stair landings. We removed old wallpaper, washed the walls, applied sealer and installed new wallpaper. The project cost was $2.915.00."

"Thanks Mr. M. It was a pleasure working for you and your family. This was a mural wallpaper installation on a wall from this company: https://www.muralswallpaper.com/shop-murals/jungle-friends-wallpaper-mural/ Vivid colors and you can not see the seams of the wallpaper - it looks custom painted. A happy kid in a happy playroom. See a couple of photos in the gallery."

Stephen did an excellent job. He was meticulous, especially considering all the angles he had to consider in the room. The entire job took two days- a bit longer than expected - but worth the wait!
Response from Steve Romanelli Wallcovering

"Thank you B. and C. It was my second wallpaper job in 3 years for this couple. You are right, meticulous and yes it took longer then estimated. Newly constructed room with all new drywall - extra care. High ceilings and an actual brightly painted steel I-beam https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/I-beam running the width of the room at the ceiling."

Stephen was thorough from the onset of our project. He made sure we had all paperwork filed with the co op board to ensure no issue day of the project. He showed up on time and set to work. HIs method is meticulous and exact and the work shows. We have gotten so many compliments on his work. I would highly recommend him if you want the job done well.
