"Chris did an amazing job! I bought a 150 year old apartment building, sight unseen. The walls were in terrible shape. I thought I would have to pull everything down and replaster. CHRIS TO THE RESCUE! He got to work patching and I know not what all had to be done. Then, he hung the vinyl wall covering. Omg! It turned out perfect! It looks so beautiful! I originally wanted to go with a plain beige wall covering, just something to cover the horrible crumbling plaster. He talked me into a print that belonged to the Victorian Age, when the house was built. He could see something I couldn't in this old building. I didn't recognize the place when he was finished! Bless his heart, he even helped me clear out the backyard and didn't charge me a dime for it. He is a life saver! .... It's been almost a year and a half. No bubbling or peeling with the wall covering..... Chris is the best! I will definitely use him again. He gave me a great price and did great work. I couldn't ask for more."

"Our son's bedroom had several layers of wallpaper under paint.  Chris worked with me to find the best solution for his room and gave me several options.  The painters were friendly, polite, conscientious and quick!  The room looks great and we plan on hiring them again the near future.

Wallpaper Removal FAQs, answered by experts

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.

Most jobs take 1-3 days, depending on room size and adhesive strength.

You’ll need to wash the walls to remove wallpaper adhesive residue after removal as part of the prep process for painting or rehanging wallpaper. Old adhesive can cause texture issues and prevent paint or wallpaper from adhering properly to the wall’s surface.

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.

We don’t recommend wallpapering over older paper. That’s because creating layers of glue can invite bubbling or excess moisture on the wall’s surface. You should also prime your wall before applying wallpaper and smooth the wall as much as you can, and another layer of wallpaper complicates this process.
