Kitchen wall problems we fix in Bloomingdale
A fresh wall color is the quickest way to change how a kitchen feels. Our Bloomingdale painters protect the cabinets and counters, fix the wall surface, and apply paint or wallpaper chosen to stand up to cooking and cleaning.
Dated or peeling wallpaper
Old wallpaper with curling seams or a pattern from decades ago is scored, steamed and removed, then the wall is cleaned of paste.
Water stains on the ceiling
A water mark overhead is sealed first, then the whole ceiling is painted so the patch doesn't show.
Holes from moved shelves and hardware
Small repairs make the biggest difference in a repaint. Every hole and dent is filled and sanded flat.
A wallpaper border along the ceiling
Removing an old border often leaves a paste line or paint edge. We clean, patch and paint so the wall reads as one color.
Peel-and-stick wallpaper that is lifting
Self-adhesive paper often lifts in steamy kitchens. We remove it, clean the residue and repaint or hang a pasted wallcovering.
Colors that clash after new cabinets or counters
New cabinets or counters often make the old wall color look wrong. We help you pick a color that works with both.
Wanting wallpaper that holds up in a kitchen
Vinyl and other scrubbable wallcoverings tolerate splashes and wiping. We hang them on a primed wall so they can be removed later.

- ProtectionWe mask the kitchen carefully and move small items out of the way.
- Wallpaper removalOld paper scored, steamed or soaked, peeled off and the paste washed away.

Kitchen Wall Painting & Wallpaper questions from Bloomingdale homeowners
Can you paint my kitchen cabinets too?
Cabinet painting is a separate service with its own prep and spraying. We can schedule both together.
Which colors work well in a kitchen?
Colors that work with your cabinets, counters and floors. We bring samples and test them on your wall in your light.
What paint finish is best for kitchen walls?
Satin for most walls; semi-gloss for trim and spots that get scrubbed often. Flat paint is hard to clean in a kitchen.
What does it cost to paint a kitchen?
It depends on wall area, ceiling height, prep and whether wallpaper comes off. We give a written, itemized estimate after the visit.
How long does it take to paint a kitchen?
It depends on prep. Clean, sound walls go quickly; stripping paper and patching take longer.
Bloomingdale contractor registration: do kitchen contractors need it?
No registration application or fee to work as a contractor in Bloomingdale. Permit submittals need a detailed written scope of work. We take care of that before work starts.
