"The OnCall team does wonderful work installing wallpaper! They are very communicative, thorough and clean. I have worked with them on many projects and they always do a great job! They also do repair work seamlessly (we had them do one on an older install that was by someone else we had extra paper for). The team members have a good eye and are experts in their field."

"They did a great job. Very quickly for a very reasonable price. The only thing I did not like that much was that they used the fabric covers (big sheets of fabric) to cover the floor and they were pretty dusty (I guess from their previous work). I would advice them to use either disposable paper or plastic or wash the fabric cover if they get dusty."

"Treat yourself to luxury. You will get quality painting at a more than reasonable price. I had always thought that the painters that I used about 10 years ago did a good job; and they did. But that work can hardly compare to the end product of these painters. Simply put, the walls of my 37 year old condo look refreshingly new again. Rich helped me decide how I wanted the walls, ceilings, and trims painted. Then his crew performed miracles on my condo walls. No more dents, cracks, or flaws on my walls. Because of their careful preparation, there was not a drop of paint out of place once they were finished. And during the painting, their attention to detail was truly unmatched. As I continue to admire their work, I keep looking for that one thing that they might have forgotten to do. Well, I haven't found it yet. Not only do they excel at their work, they were a pleasure to have in my home. I will soon be moving, otherwise I would hire them again in a heartbeat."

"Tony lived up to his reviews and exceeded our expectations on all measures. We had paneling in one room that we wanted to replace, but Tony offered a creative idea to essentially plaster the surface instead of replacing the drywall. The end result was great and his idea saved us a significant amount of money relative to a replacement. The quality of the workmanship was top-notch, pricing was fair, and Tony was very prompt and professional through our consultation, scheduling, and project. I highly recommend Tony and will definitely use him again for any of our future painting needs."

"This company was fantastic. From the day they showed up for our estimate to the follow-up and the actual popcorn ceiling removal and painting. They are on time, and kept the mess to a minimum - even the removal of the popcorn ceilings was done with minimal mess. Great job with the ceilings guys!! Refreshing to have a contractor answer their phones, follow-up and show up one time to get the job done professionally!! 5 stars to your company *****!!! Richard, Diane and their team at Richard Moore Painting were a pleasure to work with and we will surely be using them again for our future painting needs! Thanks again! Frank & Marie - Hazlet, NJ"

"John was very responsive.  he called emailed me and called me soon after i reached out to him on Angies List.  He gave me a very reasonable estimate, and started the job very soon after we sorted out all the details.  John removed wallpaper in my laundry room, painted my family room, hallways, living room, dining room, master bedroom, & bath, and a loft.  Her repaired and painted the ceiling in my spare room.  He also, painted all the popcorn ceilings!  And they look great! <br />   His price was very reasonable  for all of the work that they did on my home!  It was worth every dime! <br /> John and his crew were very detail oriented, clean and efficient.  They finished the job in 4 days, and did a tremendous job!   I would definitely recommend Brushworks, John and his crew to anyone.  I hope to have them back in the Spring for another project! <br />"

"Had Frank do an interior paint job and wallpaper removal. He was very punctual and got the job done on time as promised. Walls look like new. A few spots of paint here and there on the floors but came off with some hot water and a screw driver."

FAQs for wallcovering or wallpaper removal projects in Westfield, NJ

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.
