"I cannot say enough good things about Valle Painting. I initially hired them to do some exterior painting (gorgeous job!). Mr. Valle showed up to inspect his team's work, we started talking about other work his company does to include decking. My old deck was apx. 30 years old and had gone 15+ years without maintenance. The structure was dirty but in good shape, but the deck surfaces were dry and rotting - and completely unsafe. Mr. Valle walked me through his vision - replace the horizontal surfaces with Trex composite, power wash the verticals and structure pieces, then stain the vertical surfaces to match the Trex. I had been pricing materials to DIY the work, but Mr. Valle's pricing was quite fair, and his service is impeccable. While purchasing the materials, he called to let me know that the color of the Trex sample we chose was slightly off of what he was seeing at the lumberyard. He was worried that it might not look as nice as I expected, and he delayed his purchase until I could take a second look. I was thankful for the call because he was right - and we ended up changing the color at the last minute. Over the course of the two days, Mr. Valle's deck team ripped out the old boards, inspected the structure, added a new joist, made some minor repairs to the structure and rails, and installed Trex on all the horizontal surfaces including the deck stairs. The next day, Mr. Valle came out himself to do the power washing of the rails and structure. The painting team came out the following two days to stain the rails, the deck posts, and the vertical trim pieces. In about a week (plan to finish), I went from having an unsafe eyesore to having a gorgeous, safe, and usable deck that looks like something out of a magazine. I've already recommended Valle Painting to friends and neighbors. And because they do so much more than painting, Valle Painting will will be first in line for some remodeling work in my near future."

"It was the best service I got for a long time. He exceeded my expectation. He taught me to be cost efficient and he answers a lot of my questions. I would definitely use the service again. He quote me that it would be done in 3 days and he finished in a day and a half days. I like how quick and clean his work. He checked everything and he was thorough."

Wallpapering 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.

If you can already see the texture of the existing wallpaper through the layer of paint, then the texture could also come through the new layer of wallpaper. If that’s the aesthetic you want, then proceed. But if you want a smoother surface, you should either strip off the existing paint and wallpaper or hang a layer of liner paper before proceeding.

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.

To pair a unique sense of style with white walls, keep them well-decorated. Hang vibrant art or bold furniture to add color to the room. Add some texture and greenery to the space with plants. Choose accent pieces such as throw pillows or light fixtures with patterns. Having a white wall can be a plus as it allows homeowners to easily decorate their homes as they desire without worrying about clashing with the paint color. 

We don’t recommend wallpapering over older paper. That’s because creating layers of glue can invite bubbling or excess moisture on the wall’s surface. You should also prime your wall before applying wallpaper and smooth the wall as much as you can, and another layer of wallpaper complicates this process.
