"Ed did a fantastic job installing wallpaper in our guest bathroom. The seams are invisible! He was very friendly, meticulous, and on time. I would choose Ed for any other wallpaper project I may have in the future!"

"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

Rubbing alcohol may help dissolve stubborn wallpaper adhesive that remains after removal, but be sure to apply it carefully to prevent damaging your walls. Apply a small amount using a cotton swab or pad, then gently scrape or wipe the adhesive away.

Most jobs take 1-3 days, depending on room size and adhesive strength.

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.

No, you don’t always have to remove old wallpaper before applying a new layer. However, you should pull off the existing wallpaper if it’s cracked, peeling, or in poor condition. We’d also recommend against putting wallpaper over textured or dark-colored wallpaper because the old layer may be visible through the new one. In addition, if you try to hang new wallpaper over vinyl-coated wallpaper, the adhesive might not stick properly. 

While textured walls can elevate a space in many ways, there are a couple of downsides to consider. Namely, they’re hard to clean, and some textures fall out of fashion quickly. Make sure to consider all your options to find one you truly love before diving in.
