"We love our 'new' house, thanks to T. Paul Sek Ecopainting! Before, it looked gloomy and uneven in its hues. Now, the walls look far lighter across the changing light of day, making the house more livable and attractive. Debbie's color consultation gave us very helpful advice on what colors to choose. We settled on a shade we hadn't initially considered. We also greatly appreciated the care taken by the workers to protect our furniture and move everything back into order. The finish was highly professional and very precise, with no discernible edge bleeds. We also expected to return to a house full of fumes but because they use low VOC paints, we were pleasantly surprised by very little detectable offgassing. They communicated in a timely fashion, coordinated key pick up, and overall helped us feel like we were in excellent hands. We strongly recommend T. Paul Sek Ecopainting."

Wallpaper Removal questions, answered by experts

No, you don’t always have to remove old wallpaper before applying a new layer. However, you should pull off the existing wallpaper if it’s cracked, peeling, or in poor condition. We’d also recommend against putting wallpaper over textured or dark-colored wallpaper because the old layer may be visible through the new one. In addition, if you try to hang new wallpaper over vinyl-coated wallpaper, the adhesive might not stick properly. 

The average cost to remove wallpaper is $790. The final price tag depends on the size of the room and the complexity of the project, and can range from $200 to $2,000. Usually, removing peel-and-stick wallpaper is on the lower end of the cost scale, as it doesn't require special tools to remove.

To remove pre-pasted wallpaper, you’ll need to wet the wallpaper or steam it to loosen the paste on the back of the wallpaper. Spray the paper with water, then let it soak for 10 to 20 minutes. From there, you should be able to peel off the wallpaper. Then, you may need to follow up with a cleaning solution and a scraper to remove any remaining wallpaper paste on the walls.

It’s best to remove wallpaper rather than paint over it. You should only paint over wallpaper if removing it would damage the wall, the surface is relatively smooth, or there are minimal problem areas—such as slight peeling and lifted seams—that you can fix easily. Painting over wallpaper can save time, but it can create more problems if the wallpaper is in poor condition and you don’t properly prep the area for painting. Depending on the state of the wallpaper, color, and textures could show through, and moisture from the paint could loosen the adhesive, causing unsightly bubbling.

DIY removal is possible but requires patience. Professionals ensure smooth wall prep and avoid wall damage.
