Or, in the current market, if a faucet starts dripping, walk away from your
home and buy another.

I'm glad that people don't feel comfortable hanging wallpaper

It's a crime against humanity.

I wish the previous owners of my house had been wall paper adverse.
I'm taking down the paper in one of the bathrooms now and it seems to
have been applied directly to the dry wall. *Grrrrrrr.

My previous house had the wallpaper applied directly to the
sheetrock. What an unholy mess. It would have been easier to tear
out all the sheetrock and start over. When we looked for our current
house, wallpaper was a significant deduction.
