"The painter was very professional. He taped off the trim, removed (and replaced) the wall plates, and moved and put back all the furniture - that was a big help to me.  I had bought the paint and tape, but I am sure that the company could have helped with that as well. 2 years later, the paint still looks great.

"I truly do give them five out of five stars. The estimate was quick, they have one person devoted to doing this alone, and when i needed to push up my project date with short notice they were able to accommodate. Second, on the day the job began the paint was delivered ahead of time and the manager did a walk through to verify the work that was to be completed. When the painters arrived he made sure they understood and was there at the beginning and end of every day. Most of our floors are hardwood and we have 20 foot ceilings which required scaffolding- they carefully covered the floor (double layer of protections) and put away all equipment out of the way every night. They bubble wrapped and moved all furniture and items and then put them all back. This is truly a top notch company and i was very impressed. The manager does another walk through up to a week after in case there are minor touch ups that need to be made. I have used other painting companies before and but never had one that cared/took it as serious as this one. I would hire them again in an instant."

"Highly recommend working with Damian! Had a great experience and he and his team did a fantastic job installing wallpaper for my nursery. We gave him just enough paper and he made it work beautifully and seamlessly (with very little waste to make it a work which we super appreciate!)."

Wallpaper Removal FAQs, 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.

Yes, many types of peel-and-stick wallpaper can be used in bathrooms, especially those made of vinyl or polyester. However, its success depends heavily on the level of moisture and ventilation. In bathrooms with good ventilation, such as those with fans, it can be a durable option. Peel-and-stick wallpaper may not adhere as well as traditional wallpaper in very humid conditions. For bathrooms that see a lot of moisture, like a kids' bathroom or a full bath with a steamy shower and poor ventilation, even high-quality peel-and-stick wallpaper is likely to peel over time.

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.

The simple nature of peel and stick wallpaper means it should come off much more easily than traditional wallpaper that is glued to your walls. You’ll still want to work slowly and carefully to avoid tearing it, but most peel and stick wallpaper should come off without a chemical agent to loosen it.

You’ll need to wash the walls to remove wallpaper adhesive residue after removal as part of the prep process for painting or rehanging wallpaper. Old adhesive can cause texture issues and prevent paint or wallpaper from adhering properly to the wall’s surface.
