Protecting Your Drywall
One of the biggest risks of DIY wallpaper removal is damaging the drywall beneath. Aggressive scraping, excessive moisture, and improper technique can gouge, tear, or warp drywall, leading to costly repairs. Our team uses controlled steam application, professional-grade scoring tools, and careful hand techniques to remove wallpaper without compromising the integrity of your walls.
For plaster walls in older homes, we take extra precautions to avoid cracking or loosening the plaster. We adjust our approach based on the wall type and the condition of the existing wallpaper.
Post-Removal Preparation
After removal, your walls may need additional preparation before they are ready for a new finish. We offer post-removal services including skim coating to smooth out imperfections, sanding to create an even surface, and priming to ensure proper adhesion for new wallpaper or paint. This step is critical for achieving a professional result with your next wall treatment.
Pricing Factors
Wallpaper removal costs depend on the size of the area, the number of wallpaper layers, the type of adhesive used, and the condition of the walls. Rooms with multiple layers of painted-over wallpaper typically require more time and effort. We provide detailed estimates after an on-site assessment.
