"He was very responsible and professional. His estimate was very reasonable and his work was excellent. We weren't given the choice of exactly what he did on this review. So I am putting what he did here. He and his wife removed the wallpaper and put up new."

"SJ Coverup did a great job putting up wallpaper in our dining room and on an accent wall in our family room. They were very professional, responsive, and did great work. This was our first wallpapering job and I was a little concerned on how well everything would line up with the pattern. We were beyond impressed with how it came out. We plan to wallpaper our powder room and would definitely hire these guys again."

"From the first phone call to the very last brush stroke, Mark and his team were very responsive, professional, and eager to make this experience a positive one. Before the job even started, Mark came to our home with his color wheels and helped my wife and I navigate our way through the entire house to achieve the design aspect we were looking for. Once hired, Mark and his team showed up when they said they would, worked full days, and always kept me up to date on the game plan. Not only did they have their own strategy to tackle my entire home (>3000ft2) in time, but they were open to having me provide some input on direction with having to orchestrate around appliance and furniture deliveries. Before their final day and before Mark would accept final payment - he handed me a roll of painters tape and asked for my wife and I to walk through every room and place a piece of tape at any area that we wanted them to touch up. Anywhere. No matter how big or small the detail, he wanted to ensure the job went as smoothly as possible and that before he left on his final day - that we were happy and satisfied with their work. As an update to this post, I still remain in contact with Mark, and intend on hiring Mark and his crew to paint the exterior of my home when the time comes (hopefully soon!). I would absolutely recommend Color Concepts to friends and family (and already have) and if you find yourself reading this post - look no further."

"The painting crew was excellent. Very polite and professional. Cody came by every day to inspect and discuss the job with them and kept the project moving during the week. I would strongly recommend this company."

"The entire house was covered in wallpaper. It was no easy task to remove but Frank, Larry and the crew got it done. Once removed, they painted the ceilings, wood trim, doors and walls. Reaching Frank was easy throughout the process and he answered all my questions and concerns. The job took a couple of days longer than estimated, primarily because the wallpaper in one room was very challenging. It looks like a new house and I couldn't be happier."

"Richard was very communicative during the entire process and also kept us informed of his schedule. He showed up on time and did a great job in the room. The room looks amazing because of his work. We are definitely going to hire him again to do painting and have already recommended him to friends."

"Mitchell did a truly unbelievable job wallpapering my entryway, curved stairway and upstairs hallway. He worked very methodically and precisely, deftly handling difficult cuts, curves, heights, and wallpapering match-ups. I think at one point he even fused two pieces together that didn't belong - but you would never know the difference! I was most impressed with his work ethic and attention to every detail, even with the constant chatter of my two year-old. I found him to be friendly, knowledgable, and reasonably priced for the finished product, a beautiful piece of art.  <br />"

"We hired MPP to paint our newly constructed porch. Rafael was responsive to my initial request and I thought the price was very fair after getting 3-4 other quotes. The crew came as scheduled and did an amazing job. I was nervous about the paint job since it is a brand new porch, but MPP exceeded expectations. In fact, they did such a good job that we had them back to scrape and plaster over some popcorn ceiling in our living room. Not surprisingly, they did a great job with that too. Looking forward to working with MPP again!"

FAQs for wallcovering or wallpaper removal projects in Kingston, MA

You can determine your wall type through tactile and visual tests. Start by checking the surface by inserting a thumbtack, feeling the texture, tapping to listen for a hollow sound, and examining cut edges under outlet covers. Drywall feels soft with a hollow sound, while plaster is hard and solid. These checks are especially useful in older homes where plaster is more common.

After removing wallpaper, you can dispose of small amounts in your household trash. However, if you are removing wallpaper from your entire home, you’ll need to contact a waste removal service, rent a dumpster, or arrange a special pick-up with your municipality’s waste service. Wallpaper cannot be recycled, so it is important to keep it separate from the recycling stream to comply with local waste guidelines.

It takes a professional from several hours up to a full day to remove wallpaper from a single room. The removal duration depends on the type of adhesive, the age of the wallpaper, the condition of the wall, and the number of layers present. High ceilings and additional layers increase the time required, as extra care is taken to protect the wall surface while ensuring a complete removal.

Using fabric softener with water is an option for removing wallpaper, but its effectiveness is limited and depends on the type of wallpaper being used. This low-cost method is most effective on modern, less porous wallpaper and may not yield optimal results on vintage or textured varieties. It might also affect wall surface preparation for new coverings if the residue is not completely removed. For stubborn adhesive or textured surfaces, professional solutions are recommended to ensure a thorough removal without damaging the underlying wall.
