"Timothy was extremely professional and a very positive person to have in our home. He immediately impressed me as the only painter that measured all the walls and spaces before giving me a detailed estimate with a breakdown of the work in each separate area. We gladly paid the $1650 deposit in mid-April to schedule his time required for the job, and waited for our turn in his busy schedule in mid-June. His Office Manger was very professional and kept us to date, all estimates were emailed and all documentation was very detailed. When the job directly before us finished faster than expected, we were glad to have him begin the work about a week early. He began removing the wallpaper in the Powder Room and then moved through the Entryway area in a very efficient manner. He worked multiple sections at a time, as one area dried, he was working on another wall. Tim expertly covered our hardwood floors and there was not one single drop off paint found on them.

Tim is a very positive person, who is extremely polite and I was very comfortable having him in my home, both alone with me and at times by himself. The finished product is truly amazing, as our neighbors came to see how it looked (our very wallpapered home was well known by the women in our neighborhood) They were shocked to see our entryway looked as if it had never been wallpapered at all.

The late date of this review is completely by my oversight; I crossed it off my project list by mistake. We look forward to working with Timothy's Painting for future projects.

"Fantastic! They spent 4 hours total - 1 hour removing the paper and 3 hours prepping the walls so they could be painted. The walls were completely smooth and ready to be painted when they were finished. They were prompt, clean, courteous and professional."

"The finished job shows streaks and places were missed all together. There were cracks on seems which was the main reason I wanted it done so the sanding wasn't done properly. By May of 2011, the window part of the window sills were cracked and chipping. The front door showed cracks and streaks and was later repainted by another painter. Mr. Yohe was very unprofessional. He came out the first week of October and said he would mail his proposal. He didn't mail it. I called twice and gave excuses as to why he didn't mail the proposal and he finally responded when I itemized the work and sent him an email. All he would have to do was copy the proposal. Instead he just quoted a price of $525 for the whole project. He didn't itemize everything in the proposal. After going back and forth about the quoted price he stuck to the price of $525 instead of itemizing each object to be painted. I was particularly angry because during a rainy week he called to come out to my house. Instead of waiting until the weather cleared, he made excuses about only having one day to be able to do the work. He simply blows off small jobs. He gives estimates and then when he discovers its a small job he doesn't like to do it. My job cost 625 dollars and I could've easily gotten the job for around 300. He was supposed to paint my kitchen as well but didn't give me an estimate and said he wouldn't be able to get to it until right before Christmas."

Wallpaper Removal questions, answered by experts

Hiring a professional wallpaper remover is almost always worthwhile. Although the work is more expensive due to labor costs, doing it yourself is extremely time-consuming, complicated, and easy to make mistakes and wreak havoc on your walls, regardless of the tools you use. Professional wallpaper removers have the tools and experience to get old wallpaper down quickly and without damaging the walls behind it.

Limewash can be removed from brick, but the method of removal will depend on how long the limewash has been on the brick. If the limewash has fully dried—which happens after about five days—you’ll need to use a diluted muriatic acid mixture to remove it. If there are multiple coats of limewash, you may need to apply the acid mixture several times to fully remove it from the brick.

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.

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.

The pros of wallpaper include its durability and longer lifespan than paint, as well as its versatility. The durability can translate to lower long-term costs for upkeep and replacement, and the versatility means you have more options for customizing rooms in your home. Some downsides include that it’s difficult to remove, it’s not ideal for rooms or areas exposed to high moisture content or sun exposure, and it’s tricky to install. A professional wallpaper hanger can help mitigate these issues, though, by installing it properly and in areas suitable for wallpaper.
