"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."

Wallpapering questions, answered by experts

Wallpaper lasts an average of around 15 years, but there is some variance. The type of wallpaper matters, as vinyl wallpaper tends to last the longest—sometimes 20 years or more—while a peel-and-stick wallpaper, which is the easiest to install for DIYers, will usually only last for around five years. Exposure to high humidity, smoke, and UV rays from sunlight can also limit the lifespan of your wallpaper, as can heavy traffic in the installation area.

Having dated, peeling, or otherwise damaged wallpaper can decrease the value of your property, so removing that before listing your house is nearly always a good idea; however, since wallpaper tends to be a personal style choice, potential buyers may or may not love your aesthetic as much as you do.

Love the look of wallpaper but want to consider property value as well? Stick with something that is easy to change. If you are thinking of selling soon, make sure your wallpaper hanging is on-point and looks professional with no crooked seams, evenly matched patterns, and minimal bubbling or other imperfections.

While peel-and-stick wallpapers require no time to cure, the adhesives for other types of papers will take a day or two to dry and up to three weeks to fully cure. The differences are the type of paper, the type of adhesive, and the humidity and temperature in the space. 

Painting over wallpaper is an efficient way to cover it if it’s in decent shape. Before painting over wallpaper, make sure the surface is clean and smooth. You may have to remove minor problem areas, such as lifted seams or small peels, with a sheetrock knife or putty knife. Add a latex- or oil-based primer to keep moisture at bay before painting. You’ll likely need two coats of paint to cover the area.

The two most common reasons wallpaper does not stick are a lack of preparation and improper adhesive. Be sure to use the wallpaper paste designed for the type of paper you choose. Before beginning your project, make sure the walls are clean and free of dust, grease, and oils.
