"Aaron looked at the rooms to be painted: living room, dining room and bedroom walls, trim and ceilings. He explained that because some paint came off the walls when I removed two old decals, those areas would need to be skim coated. The estimate seemed reasonable. Aaron and his crew arrived as scheduled and worked very hard for two and a half days. They paid close attention to detail, and the results are absolutely beautiful. The rooms look like new! I will definitely call Precision Coatings for my future painting needs."

"I gave him the square footage of the room. He picked up the paint for me, moved the furniture and covered the floor thoroughly. He also offered to remove some other debris out of the room before he began. He was terrific."

"She did a great job. She was very responsive when we called her. She came to the house to measure and give advice as to what type of paper to buy for the application that we wanted. We ordered the paper, and then as soon as it came in, we called her again and she was here within days. That is great. We had tried to do the silk wallpaper ourselves previously and it was a disaster."

"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."

Wallpaper Removal questions, answered by experts

Once again, contact with moisture is the culprit here, though water-resistant varieties of wallpaper are less likely to become wet and develop mold. Using a high-quality exhaust fan or dehumidifier and leaving the doors or windows cracked after bathing will keep this issue at bay. 

Many peel-and-stick wallpapers aren’t moisture-resistant, so if you install them in high-humidity rooms, mold can grow behind the wallpaper. It’s best to reserve peel-and-stick wallpaper for bedrooms, living rooms, and other rooms with lower humidity levels. Not only does this minimize the risk of mold growth, but it also keeps the wallpaper from bubbling or peeling.

While it is possible to paint over wallpaper, it is generally better to remove it first to guarantee a smooth, professional finish. Painting over wallpaper can save time, but it may lead to issues if not done correctly.

You can paint over existing wallpaper if it is in excellent condition: smooth, non-textured, clean, and firmly adhered to the wall. Ensure there are no bumps, tears, or peeling areas, and that all corners and seams are securely glued down. You might also consider painting over wallpaper if removing it would damage the underlying wall. Additionally, some wallpapers are specifically designed to be paintable, which can add texture to a room.

However, there are risks. If the wallpaper is textured, damaged, or peeling, these imperfections will show through the new paint. The moisture from the paint can also loosen the wallpaper's adhesive, causing it to bubble and potentially damage the wall. To mitigate these issues, clean the surface thoroughly and use an oil-based primer to help the paint adhere and prevent the old adhesive from bleeding through.

White walls are considered a classic and timeless look and will most likely always be in style. A white wall easily blends into any type of home decor style which makes it a suitable option for most homeowners. Another appealing quality about white walls is that if it's not a color someone is going for, the color is easy to paint over.

The simple nature of peel and stick wallpaper means it should come off much more easily than traditional wallpaper that is glued to your walls. You’ll still want to work slowly and carefully to avoid tearing it, but most peel and stick wallpaper should come off without a chemical agent to loosen it.
