"Metropolitan Painting & Contracting painted my apartment, which included wallpaper removal, skim coating, baseboard replacement and painting. The quality of the work was excellent, the walls being very flat and lines straight. They started on the date planned and completed the project within the time estimate. Mr. G and his crew were very courteous, protected my floor and non-painted surfaces (wood, brick, bookcase), and worked with me to get the details right. Baseboard work and crown moulding work by carpenter Fernando was highest quality, being very straight and adjusting to floor height. I would hire Metropolitan again for my next project."

"AllStar Painting and Contracting did a fantastic job from start to finish.  They are much more than just a painting company! They installed 6 doors, moldings, removed wallpaper, repaired walls, and much more.  Danny is a true professional (and perfectionist) and was cognizant to all our requests throughout the entire process.  They treat your home as if it was their own.  This type of attention to detail has generated their tremendous reviews and repeat business.  Danny, James, Ryan and the rest of the crew were wonderful.  James provided a fair and timely estimate and the work was completed to our extremely high standards.  I will definitely be contacting AllStar for all my painting and contracting needs in the near future!  I recommend you do the same.

"I was in search of a contractor to remove my current ceiling, install insulation and replace the ceiling with Quietrock sheetrock so that I could soundproof between floors and I'm very happy to have connected with Fabricio here on Angie's List. Fabricio responded immediately with answers to any questions I had or clarifications that I needed and when it was time to work on the project he and his team were here on time every day and completed the project flawlessly! I'm very happy with the work that was done and I plan to work with Fabricio again."

Wallpaper Removal FAQs, 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.

As long as the surface you’re putting the tile on is properly prepped, peel-and-stick backsplashes should stay on and last anywhere from 3 to 5 years. The best way to ensure the tile stays on is to sand down and clean the wall before applying your design.

Accent walls can feel out of place or distracting if not well designed. Accent walls that don’t fit in with a room’s style can feel jarring or overpowering. Some accent wall styles can also feel dated, but fortunately, it’s easier to update a single wall than an entire room.

It can take a professional anywhere between several hours and a full day to remove wallpaper in one room. How long wallpaper removal takes depends on the type of adhesive, the wallpaper’s age, the condition of the walls, and more.

Peel-and-stick wallpaper is designed to be removed without damaging walls, making it a good choice for renters or temporary design changes. However, damage to paint or drywall can occur under certain conditions. To prevent issues, the wall surface must be properly prepared before application—it should be clean, smooth, dry, and correctly primed or painted. Applying wallpaper to a freshly painted surface can cause the paint to peel off during removal. Additionally, removing the wallpaper too quickly or aggressively can also cause damage. For best results, always follow the manufacturer's instructions for both application and removal.
