"Alex arrived on time for his estimate.  He was courteous, clean-cut and I immediately felt at ease with him.  Alex asked and answered questions for the project, the time frame, and my expectations.  He later called me with the estimate and we set an appointment for the work. On the first day of work, Alex again arrived on time with all tools to complete the job.  I believe he worked two days on this project.  When he was done, he cleaned up the work area.  Alex finished on time and on budget."

"They were punctual the first day and arrived before the time they said, but 2nd day they didn't arrive when said and was a little late. Only reason why not giving them 5 stars, but they did build what I was expecting and it will serve the purpose for my uncle. For that I'm grateful and they were nice to work with."

Wallpaper Removal questions, answered by experts

To remove pre-pasted wallpaper, you’ll need to wet the wallpaper or steam it to loosen the paste on the back of the wallpaper. Spray the paper with water, then let it soak for 10 to 20 minutes. From there, you should be able to peel off the wallpaper. Then, you may need to follow up with a cleaning solution and a scraper to remove any remaining wallpaper paste on the walls.

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.

Removing a wallpaper border requires the same process to remove full walls of wallpaper. Clear the area, spray down the surface with your hot water and vinegar solution or store-bought spray, wait 10 to 15 minutes, then scrape it off with a putty knife. Sometimes, border wallpaper lifts easier than larger sheets, so you can just peel it right off the wall by hand.

Costs depend on wallpaper type, wall condition, labor, and necessary repairs.

Painting over wood paneling is an option that can save you money and time. However, if you go this route, the style and texture of the wood you paint over will still be evident. Painting over paneling is an excellent way to modernize an otherwise outdated aesthetic. Instead of removing wood panels, consider painting them a bright color–like white or ivory. This is essentially wainscoting, but without any of the required installation.
