My wife remodeled our bathroom with wallpaper that meets a corner edge of porcelain. We also had a steam shower installed. When our contractor told us how they would finish the edge, I knew it was just a matter of time before it delaminated. Even with excellent ventilation (screened door to outside and a window skylight with fan in tube), the paper started to peel after only five steam showers over three months. After watching a series of Mr. Colgan's instructional videos late one Saturday night, I emailed him a description of my problem. By the following day, Mr. Colgan had responded with a detailed solution. As an orthopaedic hand surgeon, I am often challenged with complex conditions that require innovative solutions. And it is natural for me to do everything possible to restore a patient's hand function so they can return to work and play, regardless of their ability to pay. Mr. Colgan is a highly knowledgeable tradesman willing to help solve my problem, knowing I would not be able to hire him since I am in Los Angeles. Mr. Colgan is a consummate professional who takes pride in his craftsmanship. I highly recommend him to anyone living in Tampa. Check out his videos. read more

Our bathroom wallpaper installation, while small in overall size, was a significantly involved job. It required Spencer to bring the existing painted and textured drywall to perfectly smooth condition on which to apply the paper. The intricate design of the wallpaper, working around fixtures and including the ceiling required precision in layout, cutting and application, all of which Spencer accomplished with professional attention and care. This is not someone who "also handles wallpaper"--he is a consummate expert and an excellent communicator throughout the process. All steps of the experience were a joy. We can't wait to have another room to paper just so we can work with him again. read more

It doesn't matter if the paper has a print or has textures, every job I have used him on has been flawless. I highly recommend him for even your smallest jobs. You won't be sorry. read more

Spencer is the absolute best wallpaper installer. He is so kind, professional, trustworthy, and incredibly talented. He is the only person I trust to install my wallpaper. I was so nervous as my wallpaper had to be custom ordered from France and was quite expensive so I wanted to make sure that I could find someone that is able to properly install it without ruining it. He advised me on what size I should get (without his guidance I would have ordered the wrong size) and he knew the proper way to install the kind of wallpaper I was purchasing. I was so impressed how easy he made it look and he took such care with my wallpaper I ordered from France. He cleaned up after himself and was very neat and organized. I found his pricing to be more than fair as he truly is an expert in his craft. I was also very impressed how quickly he was able to do both my walls. I would trust him to be in my house and install even without me being there. It was such a pleasure meeting him and getting to see him transform my room with his flawless work. He is the best wallpaper installer in all of Florida and beyond. read more

We recently bought a beautiful new house. Like any new owners, we wanted to make it our own. Doing so was going to require removing what felt like 4,000,000 feet of dated wallpaper. I don't mind wallpaper, but THIS wallpaper had to go. We spent days trying DIY type methods with little success and much frustration, and began to fear that the wallpaper was crucial to the structural integrity of the house. Enter Spencer Colgan. Spencer came out to give us a quote quickly, and said he could start the job in a few days and have it finished in a few days. We heartily accepted. When Spencer and his team arrived on a Wednesday morning, they rapidly got to work. They took great care to protect the hardwood floors and the drywall under the paper, while rapidly showing that yucky 90's wallpaper who was boss. To my utter delight they finished ahead of schedule. I was astonished and thrilled! I am so grateful to Spencer and his team for their professionalism and quality. If I ever need wallpaper hung or removed, I know exactly who will get my business. Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to go decorate my new, wallpaperless home. read more

Aloha Spencer. My name is Chris. I wanted to personally thank you for your awesome videos. After watching approximately 30 hours of your YouTube channel, I successfully installed 4 bolts of type 2 contract vinyl and a couple bolts of Paper-backed grass cloth throughout my newly renovated home. I couldn't have done it without you. With your guidance, I attacked the job with the confidence and accuracy of a seasoned professional, (I'm sure you'd have a couple things to say), and my client (the wife) is very happy with the job I did. Thanks again for all the help. Spencer Colgan IS wallpaper. read more

I found Spencer through YouTube searching for an expert of rare wallpaper, specifically grasscloth. This wallpaper was damaged with excessive spackle and stained from furniture rubbing. After a quick conversation explaining the situation, Spencer gave exceptional and detail-oriented advice specifying exactly how to remove the spackle and clean away the damage. My only regret was not taking more before and after photos to show how useful and perfect his advice was! He's thorough, and extremely kind to those not familiar with how to properly address wallpaper issues and needs. Would definitely recommend! read more

If you are looking for a wallpaper installer, look no further than Spencer Colgan. He is simply the BEST, actually the G.O.A.T. for wallpaper installers! We loved his first job so much, we hired Spencer to complete a 2nd job for us. read more

Do not hire this person. He workmanship is horrible. Look at these pictures of our bedroom wall that he recently completed. This was a simple bay window. There are bubbles in the paper, the pattern is not lined up all throughout the wall, the seams are visible and there is glue stuck all over the wall. He is not cheap, he charged me $2300 for three walls in my house. It final product is not worth the price. No receipt, no contract, no guarantee of his services. I'm sure he'll refer you to his numerous videos on uTube and have many excuses for his mistakes, but the proof is in the pudding. So, not only am I stuck with paper upside in my TV room, I have to look at this in my bedroom. read more

I can honestly say that there are few contractors out there that care as much and attempt perfection as much as Spencer does. Finding an artisan with integrity who truly cares about what he does and who ensures you're satisfied with the end product is a rare thing in the construction industry today. Spencer was fair on pricing, on time, and in constant communication if there was a delay and that's all that anyone can ask. How about that - a contractor who answers his phone!! I would without hesitation recommend him for any painting or wallpaper project. Spencer has even taken a lot of his time and given me free help and advice with step-by-step instructions on the phone when I began doing a painting project (that I should have just hired him to do). His YouTube channel shows up close how detail-oriented he is. I look forward to doing more work with you Spencer! read more

I had a 3 D wallpaper hung with them and they did an Amazing Job!! I definitely will use again. Highly recommend!!

There are not enough words to convey my appreciation of Spencer Colgan and Scott. I had called Spencer for a last minute job of wall paper removal and wall repair to have done before my contracted painters were scheduled to come paint the walls (had I known about Spencer before I was already under contract, I would have went with him to paint my home as well) and he was able to fit me in at a reasonable rate. He was always on time, professional, and took care of my home while they were working. The work was excellent and highly recommend using this company for your contracting needs! read more

We just bought a new house and, after doing some research, we decided to reach out to Spencer Colgan. We watched some of his (funny) videos and we looked at thousand of ideas online. This guy is pretty busy, that's for sure. When he arrived, I was 100% sure he would not be able to finish the job in one day. Well, he proved me wrong! I am no expert in wallpaper, but the way he measures and aligns that paper so you can't see the seam between one sheet and the other is just amazing! Complete science to me! He is very meticulous and I cannot be more satisfied with the end result. AND, to add a little about his character... we misunderstood the total $ and we overpaid him. When he realized it, he turned around, knocked on our door and returned us the difference. I mean, who does that nowadays?! I can't say it enough, Spencer does an amazing job, no wonder why he is so proud of it, and I recommend him. *too bad pics don't do justice to the real work* read more

Wow! I had a problem with my wallpaper installation and I needed to find some answers very quickly. I immediately went on the internet and searched for some You Tube videos that would answer my question. I happened to find a video from a wallpaper installer in Florida. (I live in Los Angeles) I contacted him and I was so amazed at his willingness to take time to answer my questions, even after knowing that I would not be able to hire him since we were many miles apart. He didn't just give me a few minutes. He really took his time and explained in detail everything that I asked him. He both texted me and called me and was so knowledgeable and caring. If I lived in Florida, I would have definitely hired him. read more

Spencer spent two full days removing the most unbelievably stubborn, thin wallpaper from a house we just bought. He worked extremely diligently, making sure he didn't damage the walls in the process, which would have been easy to do given just how incredibly difficult this wallpaper was to remove. He did not leave until 7 pm on the second day, when all of the wallpaper was fully removed and he was done cleaning every tiny bit of paper from the carpet. Highly recommend! read more
