"The Marioni crew were amazing! The service was top notch! Removing wallpaper from 3 large areas and one small area was no easy task. They did the job and it looked fantastic. The painting was flawless. Above all, the crew were so accommodating to my special needs brother."

"Derek provided an estimate for wallpaper removal and painting a powder room, and for painting two additional bathrooms. He visited our home on 4/23/2016 to provide an estimate, and on 4/25/2016 the job was completed. Three painters were scheduled to arrive between 7:30-8:00am. They were in front of our home by 7:20am. They were all very professional, meticulous in their work, and also did a very good job cleaning up the area they painted. They definitely represented their company well. I would highly recommend this company to my family and friends, and will hire them again for additional paint jobs in my home. Thank you for providing excellent service!!

"We hired LHI twice to remove wallpaper, different painters came each time. The first painters were extremely fast and efficient. The second painters had a lot of difficulty removing the wallpaper because there were multiple laters of wallpaper. Both times the painters were very punctual, clean and professional."

"I canâ t say enough good things about my experience with Luxe Walls. Beth and Carl are an absolute delight. I had dreaded the very unpleasant, messy task of wallpaper removal in a stairwell and foyer but they made it a joy. They repaired and repainting those areas along with several other rooms, doors and trim. It couldnâ t have gone better. They were meticulous, respectful of the surrounding areas and so good at their job. It was an pleasure having them in my home. Everything went smoothly, no hiccups and was exactly as they projected,both in their estimate of price and length of time. Beth was awesome in guiding me through the difficulty of picking paint colors. Her patience was much appreciated. I canâ t recommend them highly enough. I am so pleased with the beautiful results. I have never been so calm and comfortable while having work done in my home as I was during this process with the Luxe Walls. I canâ t wait to find a new project so I can have them back."

Wallpaper Removal questions, answered by experts

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.

Think hard before deciding to German schmear your home’s exterior brickwork. If you do not like the look, you are pretty much stuck with it, as it is impossible to remove this finish the way you can remove paint. You risk damaging the underlying brick if you have to chisel and acid-wash it away. It will also take a very long time, and remnants of the mortar wash will always remain.

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.

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 average cost to install or hang wallpaper is around $575 per room or project, with typical prices ranging from $200 to $1,500. Costs can be higher for custom or luxury products. Since project size varies, it's often helpful to estimate labor costs per square foot, which generally fall between $1 and $7, with an average of $4 per square foot. The total cost depends on several factors, including the quality and type of wallpaper, the size and type of the room, and whether old wallpaper must be removed first. Opting for less expensive materials like peel-and-stick wallpaper or choosing to do the installation yourself can lower the overall cost. For the most accurate estimate, it is best to have a professional inspect the space and provide a quote.
