Can I hang wallpaper over textured wallpaper?

• <div><p>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. </p></div>

Should bathroom walls be lighter or darker?

• <div><p>Darker walls may make tight bathrooms appear even smaller, but one dark accent wall can really make a bathroom pop. Wallpaper with a dark background can add intrigue and sophistication. Still, if you’re looking to open the room up and give it a modern, airy feeling, light colors may work best for your needs. Although there are some popular and unpopular opinions, there’s really no “should” when it comes to personal design choice. </p></div>

Q: Can I hang artwork or shelves myself?

• <div><p>Yes, but professional services ensure secure installation, accurate leveling, and protection against wall damage, especially for heavy or valuable items.</p></div>

Q: Why should I hire a professional wallpaper hanger?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/5-questions-ask-when-hiring-wallpaper-pro.htm">Hiring a professional wallpaper hanger</a> is usually a worthwhile idea because, while the application of wallpaper itself is easy, getting the finished product to look good is complicated and takes a lot of practice and patience. A professional wallpaper hanger will not only be able to hang your wallpaper seamlessly, but they will also get an even application of wallpaper paste to avoid bubbling and imperfections immediately and over time. Plus, they can provide their professional opinion on whether to remove or wallpaper over an existing layer of wallpaper.</p></div>

Q: How many rolls of peel-and-stick wallpaper do I need?

• <div><p>To determine how many rolls of peel-and-stick wallpaper you need, measure the square footage of the walls you&rsquo;re covering and divide that by the square footage that each roll covers. Add 10% to 20% of your total square footage to account for pattern matching or damage while installing. </p></div>

I had him paint over wallpaper and he researched and got special paint to prime over wallpaper and then put on 2 coats paint. It looks so great. My home is from 1925 and has old wood trim so now the trim pops. One other thing is he takes his paint brushes home to clean. I love that.

"I left a message with Steve describing the work we needed. He took the time to call back, and left a message explaining that finishing cabinets wasn't their specialty, and left a recommendation. I really appreciated that he took the time to help me get connected to the right person for the job --- this, I think, demonstrates good character."
