"The team removed my wallpaper, sand primer, then painted my walls in two colors. They did a fabulous job, much bigger than I expected. They were totally professional, put up all the fixtures that had to be taken down, and cleaned up everything perfectly. I am a totally satisfied customer!"

"Phil is a super nice guy and really knew what he was talking about when it came to wallpaper. I have been told putting up wall paper is a lost art and good professionals are hard to find, but I couldn t be happier with how it turned out. He also was very timely and was willing to work with my schedule in order to get it done just a few days after we met. All in all, his work was great his service was great, and I will definitely recommend him to my friends if they are looking for a professional to put up wallpaper in their home"

"Leo and his crew did a great job. Our 1300 square foot townhome was completely redone. They filled the holes and seams in the new trim and baseboards making it look flawless. They painted the walls and ceiling cutting in the wall color to the ceiling perfectly. (His wife gets the credit for that) We had a small communication problem but when I shared my concerns they came back on a Saturday and took care of it quickly. I would recommend them. They had a fair price and quality work."

"Start to finish everything went smoothly.
Accomodated my work schedule.
Estimate was in writing delivered via e-mail.
Came with a crew and did 2 coats it in 2 days, other estimates said at least a week.
Time was important to me.
I am very pleased start to finish and would highly recommend Al and her team at Majic painting.

"Exceptional job. I would hire them again. Actually I will be. I had a tight timeline and they totally worked with me to get in and get what I wanted done by the date I needed. The 2 man crew that did the work did a great job, circuitous and respectful of me and my home. They taped off and covered so dust did not get into the other rooms, they cleaned up nightly. Took their trash with them. They showed up everyday and completed the work in the estimated 2 weeks. I did call about painting my window sashes shut and they fixed it immediately. I also called about some light spots in the paint that I was not happy with and they came out and put another coat on no questions."

Wallpaper Removal questions, answered by experts

While it is possible to paint over wallpaper, it is generally better to remove it first to guarantee a smooth, professional finish. Painting over wallpaper can save time, but it may lead to issues if not done correctly.

You can paint over existing wallpaper if it is in excellent condition: smooth, non-textured, clean, and firmly adhered to the wall. Ensure there are no bumps, tears, or peeling areas, and that all corners and seams are securely glued down. You might also consider painting over wallpaper if removing it would damage the underlying wall. Additionally, some wallpapers are specifically designed to be paintable, which can add texture to a room.

However, there are risks. If the wallpaper is textured, damaged, or peeling, these imperfections will show through the new paint. The moisture from the paint can also loosen the wallpaper's adhesive, causing it to bubble and potentially damage the wall. To mitigate these issues, clean the surface thoroughly and use an oil-based primer to help the paint adhere and prevent the old adhesive from bleeding through.

Wallpaper steamers can be very helpful for removing large sections of wallpaper more easily, but they’re not always a good idea for DIYers. The drywall behind your wallpaper is meant to stay dry, and excessive moisture from improper technique with a wallpaper steamer can leave you with severe wall damage. Drywall also retains moisture, which could result in mold growth over time. It’s best to hire a professional to remove your wallpaper with a steamer to avoid wall damage and related moisture issues.

While many types of peel-and-stick wallpaper can be used in bathrooms, they may not adhere as well in humid environments as traditional wallpaper. For best results, choose a vinyl or polyester-based wallpaper, as these materials are more durable and water-resistant. Good ventilation is also crucial to reduce humidity from steamy showers. In bathrooms with high moisture and inadequate ventilation, even high-quality peel-and-stick wallpaper is likely to peel over time.

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.

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.
