Wallpapering is my main focus, although I can do most any decorating task. I'm honest, fair, courteous, prompt, and a bit of a perfectionist. Chicago, suburbs, and beyond.
Ed is absolutely amazing! Not only is he an expert at wallpaper, he is extremely personable, professional and reliable. Ed was extremely responsive and communicative right from the beginning, and was able to fit us into his schedule only a few days after I first contacted him. He arrived on time and immediately set to work. He was methodical and detail-oriented, taking the time he needed to do this job right. Although he ran into a minor issue with the wallpaper towards the end, he was more than willing to come back and fix it a few days later. Ed obviously takes great pride in his work, something that is all too rare nowadays. We are perfectionists and somehow he managed to meet our high expectations. There are many companies that may claim to do wallpaper, but Ed is a true specialist in this area. I would not hesitate to hire Ed again and you should too!

I hired Ed to wallpaper a bathroom and one wall of a guest bedroom. He was responsive, competitively priced and efficient. Everything was done in the time he quoted and the finished project looks great! I would hire him again.

Ed was extremely pleasant and professional. He was responsive, worked efficiently, and cared very much about the final product. Our powder room had especially tricky dimensions, and Ed did a wonderful job making it work. All three wallpaper selections had their own challenges (with repeats, etc.) and his workmanship was exquisite despite this! I trusted him in my home, and am still very happy with his work.
Description of Work: Ed wallpapered my powder room, my son's room, and my daughter's nursery.

Ed did a beautiful job wallpapering several rooms in my home. We used a grass cloth paper in our dining room and he installed it perfectly. The rest of our wallpaper had very detailed designs and he was very precise - it all looks impeccable. He is a true professional, honest and very easy to work with. I wouldn’t use anyone else for wallpapering and I recommend him to all of my friends and family.

I’ve hired Ed to do several projects in my home. He always listens to what I tell him I’m looking for and then brings his professional know-how to the job so I end up with exactly what I want. He’s had a lot of experience, and I trust that he knows how to do the job right. He does all those things you look for in a contractor (but don’t always get) – responds to calls, does the work as promised and is nice to work with. I highly recommend him.

All of Ed's work is excellent. He is incredibly meticulous and neat. He is a great problem solver and really knows older homes and wallpaper--which many people do not. He is the only work person I have used who can really repair cracks in the plaster walls and ceilings. He did lot of wallpapering in my parents' home that was beautiful. Again, he is very neat, and the work never felt like an intrusion. He has worked with many designers and has a great eye. Bottom line: Ed does wonderful work.
Description of Work: I have known Ed Murphy for over 20 years. His most recent work includes painting, wallpaper removal, repainting kitchen cabinets, and repair of plaster walls in a 1920s house.
