"So happy with our decision to get wallpaper! Our walls always seemed unfinished and not complete with just the white paint, and the wallpaper just completed the whole bathroom and makes it so much more polished looking. Alec is great with communication, hard working, arrived exactly when he said he would, and was great to work with throughout the whole process. And just overall did a great job with exceeding our expectations! We will be using him again for our wallpaper and painting needs!"

"We recently had a house fire. All the rooms had smoke damage. I heard about PPP from a fellow painter (job too big for him to meet timelines). I've had Eric, catelyn and Aaron (for one day) at my house for 2 weeks now. As a retired contractor and extremely concerned with quality and detail, I was amazed at their workmanship.

A family owned and operated Painting and Paperhanging company since 1983. Our family roots go back to Vincent's mother, who sold wallpaper from the basement of her home in the Port Richmond section of Philadelphia. Vincent then gained the knowledge and expertise of installing various wall coverings from his uncle, who guided him along from a young age as his teacher and mentor. 40 years later, Vincent's Painting and Paperhanging has continued the family tradition of providing professional craftsmanship and achieving beautiful results for our customers. Let us show you what we can do for you and your family today.

"Excellent workmanship and friendly personality. Thank you"

New Era Pro Painting is a newly growing small company that provides high quality residential and commercial painting that would change the appearance of any area. We have 4 employees. Costs are determined by the job. Our business may be new but I along with my employees have more than ten years of experience behind us. FREE ESTIMATES.

"A phenomenally positive experience. Francisco, the owner, was extremely helpful and always easy to reach. His crew did excellent work and came reliably, exactly when they said they would. They were meticulous about protecting floors and furnishing and always cleaned up at the end of the day. Also, they worked quietly (no radio, etc) which I appreciated greatly as I work from home. The painters spoke very little English and I speak no Spanish. But Francisco was always immediately reachable by phone if something needed to be communicated and he stopped by most days. Last, but certainly not least. We got three estimates and New Era's was the lowest."

Wallpaper removal services FAQs

Hiring a professional wallpaper remover is almost always worthwhile. Although the work is more expensive due to labor costs, doing it yourself is extremely time-consuming, complicated, and easy to make mistakes and wreak havoc on your walls, regardless of the tools you use. Professional wallpaper removers have the tools and experience to get old wallpaper down quickly and without damaging the walls behind it.

Removing wallpaper can be easy if you have a non-coated wallpaper, but most homeowners have vinyl-coated wallpaper, which is more durable but tears very easily during the removal process. This feature makes it challenging and time-consuming to remove most wallpaper. There are tools to speed up the process, like steamers, but, unfortunately, it’s easy to permanently damage your walls when using them. In most cases, it’s best to hire a professional wallpaper remover to get the job done quickly and without damaging your home.

In most cases, you cannot wallpaper over existing wallpaper. It’s possible to wallpaper over non-coated wallpaper, but vinyl-coated wallpaper is much more prevalent in homes, so you generally shouldn’t put new wallpaper over existing wallpaper. Adding a layer of wallpaper over vinyl-coated paper will lead to poor adhesion, leaving behind bubbles and imperfections in your wall. Plus, wallpapering over vinyl-coated wallpaper can lead to mold growth, which can be hazardous to your health. It’s usually best to hire a local wallpaper removal service to handle the task to avoid these issues.

The average cost to remove wallpaper is around $3 per square foot, but the total depends on the type of wallpaper, how easy it is to remove, and the size of the room. Most homeowners spend around $780 per room for wallpaper removal, and prices typically fall between $200 and $2,000. Wallpaper removal is expensive because it tends to be a very time-consuming job, and it can sometimes take a full day or more for the work to complete.

The easiest way to remove wallpaper is to use a steamer. The hot steam will loosen the wallpaper paste and make peeling the wallpaper off in large sheets much easier. Unfortunately, steamers can create irreparable damage on your walls, so it’s not a good idea for DIYers to use steamers to remove wallpaper. Instead, hire a professional wallpaper remover to do the work for you. This method will not only speed up the process, but it will also ensure your walls will remain intact post-wallpapering.
