Brian is a master and a genuine nice guy to boot. Amazing work, don't know why you'd go with anyone else.

Brian is super to work with! He hung the wallpaper in our dinning room and it looks beautiful. He fee is fair. He was on time, tidy, and knows what he's doing. we love the way our room looks!! I would hire Brian again and would definitely recommend to friends and family. read more

I debated for a few months on getting wallpaper for the living area of our rental unit here in the city. I thought I loved the look and my vision, but was scared to pull the trigger on a place I'd only live in for a couple of years. Today I'm happy to say Brian came over and did the job on a large accent wall and I am *beyond* thrilled. It came out amazing and completely elevated the look of our place. Covid has made home a sanctuary for us and it's nice to love where you live. I cannot recommend Brian enough. Easy going vibes, very no-nonsense, and a professional through and through. So glad we went with him for our wallpapering needs. read more

I had hung wallpaper before, but I didn't enjoy it. So when I bought a wallpaper mural for my upstairs bath, I kinda dreaded the thought of it again. And then I considered the cost of the mural itself and the fact that the wallpaper would have to be cut around concrete beams protruding from the ceiling into the wall. That's when I decided to take a friend's recommendation and reach out to Brian. I'm glad I did. It wasn't cheap, but it was well worth it to be sure I wouldn't screw it up. It turned out beautifully! Brian is very customer-focused and reliable. I'd use him again. read more

Really good dude who is friendly, knowledgable, clean and does great work. We had some tricky artisan wallpaper that needed trimming and was a metallic gold ink. Brian took care and consulted us on what he would do and was very friendly and organized. Really happy with the result. I would definitely hire him again. read more

Hi, we contracted Brian to do a small but fussy wall papering job for our entryway. The paper is mylar, which is difficult to work with and highlights defects and installation errors. Brian's quote was excellent and he delivered with a terrific installation job. We couldn't be more pleased with his work and the results. Highly recommend. Plus, he's just a really neat guy! read more

See photo section of bedroom with black wallpaper. Brian came to my rescue in short notice when I wanted to get this completed while the bf was out-of-town. Brian was very professional and got it done without issue. read more

I wasn't going to trust just anyone with hanging my fancy English wallpaper! After researching wallpaper installers (I asked contractors I was interviewing if they had recommendations and I also searched on Yelp), I reached out to 3 individuals (who are all highly reviewed on Yelp). One couldn't be bothered to respond directly to me; instead, she gave my phone number to another Yelp'd installer (who doesn't have very high reviews). No, thank you. Another told me that he wouldn't have time for another 2 months but if I wanted to book him, I should do it soon. He never responded to my follow-up email. Pass. Then Brian responded by asking when could he come over to look at the powder room and give me an estimate... now we're talking business! Scheduling the actual date took a couple of months because we had to wait until the mosaic wall tile had been put up and the vanity and countertop installed. Also, Brian had some work obligations that took him out of town for a couple of weeks. But when we finally settled on a date, Brian came through with flying colors! The paper was finicky (it didn't cut very easily with a razor blade) and it is dark, which means that when the paper and glue dried the next day, you could see the edge of the underlying white paper at the seams. Brian took his time to trim the paper carefully, fitting it in the smallest of places (the slice of wall between the vanity and the door casing). When he returned 2 days later to varnish the wallpaper, he also touched up the white seams with a black marker and "voila!", the white seams disappeared! I appreciate that Brian took his time to do a thorough and professional job. Having seen a range of subcontractors come in and out of my home with varying (and mostly inadequate) definitions of "finished work", I can say that the money spent on hiring Brian was well spent. Which is a good thing because the walls in the powder room are now the most expensive ones in the whole house! On a side note, Brian is a super nice and laid back guy with a very interesting and long career in the art world. I would hire him again and I would recommend him without reservation to anyone needing wallpaper hung. read more

Brian did an amazing job hanging wallpaper in our daughter's bedroom. You can't even see the seems on the wallpaper. He was super easy to work with, meticulous about his work and nice to chat with as well. Would definitely have him back to hang more wallpaper in our apartment. read more

My wife and did a thorough and exhaustive renovation of our third floor including building a nursery. We decided to wallpaper two small spaces and one wall of the nursery. In our search for a qualified wallpaper professional we stumbled across Brian. Not only did Brian agree to install our wall paper over a weekend to accommodate our time lines (my wife is ready to give birth at any moment), he was congenial, professional and his attention to detail was superb. Our wall paper projects were finished over the course of a Saturday & Sunday. Brian arrived on time, worked diligently, was easy to chat with and had a super pleasant demeanor. Brian's been hanging wall paper for decades--he's seen it all--our walls are not straight, we went from lathe and plaster to drywall with original framing which is never as perfect as modern framing so there were tons of nuances to work around as he hung our paper. I couldn't recommend Brian more! read more

This here Paperman is the bomb. Also happens to be a great friend of mine who has finally moved from NYC to the west coast- where we truly need him the most! Whew! There really is no one else out here that I would trust to do my wallpapering. Bdub has revamped multiple rooms in our home here in Marin (first in San Rafael, now in San Anselmo). He has a gift of turning spaces that you might even be embarrassed about into worlds of wonder. Not only did he make my vision of the boys' playroom and bedroom come to life- he also kept it real and well within my budget. I am forever grateful. NYC chic and sleek/Fun & funky/Classy & traditional. He can pretty much do it all. Fresh from the Big Apple- we're so lucky to have him in the Bay! read more

Brian from Paint and Paperman gets absolutely NO STARS and I would never in a million years refer him or his company. I contacted him at least 5 different times and he flaked out every single time - He says he's going to call and meet with you and he NEVER EVER does!!!!!!!!! Trust me - NEVER plan on using this guy! read more

We hired Brian to install wallpaper in our dining room and our bedroom. Brian did such an amazing job and the rooms came to life with the new wallpaper! Not only does Brian do an amazing job, he's also a very nice person. Brian did such a good job, that we asked him to come back to our house to wallpaper two different bathrooms. If you have other vendors coming in and the wallpaper needs to be installed by a certain date, Brian will go above and beyond to make sure the work is done in time. I would 100% recommend reaching out to Paint and Paperman for any wallpaper projects that you have! read more

Brian provides one of the best wallpaper installation services I have used. I have lived around the world and always have wallpaper hung - Brian is by far the best. He is very easy to work with, a pleasure to speak with on the phone, is very responsive to text/email, and is fair when it comes to pricing. His work speaks for itself. He hung a Farrow & Ball wallpaper in my bedroom and Hygge & West wallpaper in my bathroom. Both turned out spectacular. See photos. read more

I'm SO HAPPY with my new walls! Brian did a flawless job with the Cole and Son Woods wallpaper in my foyer. He has years of experience and was very detail-oriented. I am a perfectionist and the pattern matches perfectly! Competitive pricing, kind, and very easy to work with. I absolutely recommend him and I'll definitely use Brian again when we need another wallpaper installation (or paint job - he's an artist and does decorative painting). He is truly a wallpapering artist! Also worth noting his Instagram: https://instagram.com/paintandpaperman/ read more

I couldn't have asked for better! Brian did an excellent job wallpapering my new Acupuncture practice, I absolutely love the new walls. I was a little reluctant to hire someone that wasn't recommended personally, but after chatting with Brian on the phone I felt confident he's reliable and works to high standards. Then I saw all the rave reviews on Thumbtak and my mind was made up. Right from the start dealing with Brian was a breeze. He's really pleasant to have around, his work was neat & timely and he left the place sparkling. We've already made plans for him to wallpaper my living room. I can't recommend Brian highly enough - I'm really happy I hired him. read more

Brian and his assistant did a phenomenal job installing the Cole & Son wallpaper in my office. They arrived at noon and finished covering a 9'x13' wall in less than three hours! I was impressed.

He really went above and beyond. Price was extremely reasonable. read more

Brian is a great guy and does a fantastic job. Seriously you can't find a better guy for your job. We even messed up and didn't get enough wall paper for one room because it was seriously expensive wall paper so there was almost no room for a mistake and Brian and his precision saved the day and everything matched up perfectly, you should have seen how little the scraps were. I feel bad we put him through that. And on top of it all he's just an incredibly nice guy. Thanks Brian!! We'll have him back for sure. read more

I just hired Brian to wallpaper a nursery. He did a FANTASTIC job (and I'm a total perfectionist). His work is extremely precise - you can't even notice any seams. I've dealt with a lot of contractors who are impossible to get ahold of and flake when they say they're going to come - Brian is the opposite. He came when he said he would, and finished the job quickly. I would hire him again in a second and highly recommend him. read more
