"I probably could have found someone to do this more cheaply (like maybe a one- or two-person company), but there's something to be said for peace of mind and quality. I found them on Angie's List and so I expected them to be good). In the end, all rooms, including the one with the wallpaper, looked beautiful. In the room with the wallpaper, no one would ever guess that the wallpaper is still there. Everything was done very neatly and cleanly. All staff were courteous and professional. They also got the job done fast. We'd likely use them again.

"I bought Wilber’s Painting coupon for 4 hours of wallpaper removal and drywall repair. I am very pleased with the work they did! Two men here from 8 am until about 4:45 pm. Of course, I paid extra for the additional hours. Well worth it. The painters were great – they did a beautiful job, worked quickly, cleaned up the space well after completing the work. They even put my elfa shelfing back up in the office closet. I would definitely use them again and highly recommend them. I've included a photo of the drywall-repaired wall (the short wall without shelves) and the metal louvered closet doors they painted."

"Nathan did an outstanding job removing our old bathroom wallpaper and installing the new wallpaper. His workmanship was excellent, and everything looks clean and professionally finished. He communicated well throughout the process, showed up when he said he would, and his pricing was very fair. I wouldn’t hesitate to hire him again and highly recommend him to anyone looking for quality wallpaper installation."

"We selected Omar's based on another (retired) contractor's recommendation and on the basis of their work repainting and repairing plaster in the interior of our house, and we're glad we continued working with them. The owner made some good recommendations on the configuration of the bathroom. We did all the shopping for fixtures, tiles, etc., and the cost of those is not reflected in the "Approximate cost of service" field in this review.

The workers were skilled and diligent, and worked very hard. Everything looks great - good job on the tiling and painting, and all the fixture installations are very professional.

The project didn't quite finish at the scheduled time, but some of the delay was due to fixtures ordered from other providers that were damaged when they were delivered to us. Waiting on replacements slowed things down a bit, to no fault of Omar's.

The crews took care not to damage our recently finished hardwood floors, and although moving fixtures through the house inevitably resulted in a few chips in our recent paint job, they did a good job of touching those up.

When we noticed a few details that we wanted done differently, they were happy to oblige."

Wallpapering questions, answered by experts

It is less costly to paint than wallpaper when you only consider the upfront cost. Wallpaper costs $320 to $820 when applied by a pro, while paint only costs $200 to $700 per room. However, when comparing wallpaper versus paint, consider the long-term as well. Wallpaper can save you money over time since it has a much longer life span than paint.

It’s possible to hang your own wallpaper, but the process is tedious and potentially frustrating, and it can be challenging to get seams to line up and look clean and professional. Plus, depending on the type of wallpaper you’re installing, using too much or too little adhesive could cause damage to your drywall or plaster, peeling, and bubbling in the final product. It’s usually a better idea to hire a professional wallpaper installer to do the work for you, as the relatively low cost is justifiable, if only to avoid damage to your walls.

Yes, peel-and-stick wallpaper is available that’s made from vinyl—it actually is the most common material used in peel-and-stick wallpaper. Learning how to install vinyl wallpaper is far easier when you’re using a peel-and-stick design than with adhesive. You could also select peel-and-stick wallpaper that consists of paper, polyester, or natural fibers.

Common mistakes when finishing basement walls include neglecting proper insulation, insufficient moisture management, and poor ventilation. Not addressing these issues can lead to mold growth, water damage, and discomfort. Additionally, inadequate planning, improper framing, and rushing the project can result in subpar outcomes. 

It's essential to follow best practices, seek professional guidance if needed, and prioritize thoroughness and attention to detail.

To layer wallpaper over wallpaper, inspect your existing wallpaper for problem areas. Damaged wallpaper should not be covered. If it’s okay to proceed, prep by turning off the electricity and removing any outlet and switch covers. Dust your walls and lightly rinse them to prevent the existing paper from peeling. Apply primer, then apply your new wallpaper.
