"Cody Celata did an exceptional job painting my home. Transforming my home into a space where I can truly relax is no small feat, and it's clear that he took the job seriously and put his all into it. His commitment to quality shows in the finished product, which I can only describe as beautiful. Another important factor when it comes to contracting work is timeliness. It's not uncommon for projects to drag on longer than anticipated, causing inconvenience and frustration for the homeowner. However, this was not the case with Celata Contracting. Cody was able to complete the job in a timely manner, which is definitely a mark of professionalism and dedication. Based on my experience, I would recommend Celata Contracting to others, including my friends, family, and even strangers. Celata Contracting are top-notch professionals who take pride in their work and are committed to delivering exceptional results to their clients. Hopefully this review will help others make an informed decision when it comes to their own home improvement projects."

Wallpaper Removal questions, answered by experts

Hiring a professional wallpaper hanger is usually a worthwhile idea because, while the application of wallpaper itself is easy, getting the finished product to look good is complicated and takes a lot of practice and patience. A professional wallpaper hanger will not only be able to hang your wallpaper seamlessly, but they will also get an even application of wallpaper paste to avoid bubbling and imperfections immediately and over time. Plus, they can provide their professional opinion on whether to remove or wallpaper over an existing layer of wallpaper.

The cost varies from $1 to $3 per square foot, depending on the type of wallpaper, the wall condition, and the labor involved.

Yes, many companies offer convenient options to accommodate service timing needs.

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.

Small amounts of wallpaper can be thrown away in your household trash. If you’re removing a whole home’s worth of wallpaper, you may need to contact a waste removal company, rent a dumpster, or schedule a special pick-up with your municipality’s waste removal service. Wallpaper isn’t recyclable, so no matter which method you choose to dispose of it, make sure it doesn’t get mixed in with the recycling.
