"They arrived exactly on time for the estimate and the removal. The price for the wallpaper removal and drywall repair was very reasonable. They completed the job cleanly and quickly, including removing and then reinstalling medicine cabinets and a large mirror. They even repaired damage to the drywall that I had done when I tried to remove the drywall myself. I will have them back to do some other ceiling and drywall repair in my home. I recommend them highly!"

"Kevin did a terrific job in removing and replacing discolored and peeling grout and caulk. He was careful and meticulous in removing old material without damaging my fixtures. He made terrific suggestions on which colors to use and where. He even found hard-to-find matches for the colors. His pricing was fair and appropriate. He worked quickly and efficiently. I appreciate the care Kevin gave to the job. In the end, the bathrooms look great; Kevin worked quickly; the price was just right; and my bathrooms have a new, clean look. I would hire Kevin again."

"Joe Wolf and his two painters showed up exactly on time and promptly went to work. They were fast, efficient, clean,helpful, and did an excellent job. Afterward they cleaned up, put the furniture back where it had been, and except for the beautiful new color in my living room, the house looked as if no workmen had ever been in it that day.

Wallpaper Removal questions, answered by experts

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.

You may end up with extra wallpaper once your project is finished. Hang on to that wallpaper, as you may need to use it to patch up areas that get damaged later on. If you have a lot of excess wallpaper, try getting creative with it. You can use it to line the inside of a cabinet or drawers, for example.

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. 

While you can remove wallpaper yourself, it is a labor-intensive process that risks damaging your walls. Common DIY methods include using a steamer to loosen the adhesive or spraying the paper with a solution of hot water and vinegar or dish soap before scraping. However, steamers can cause irreparable damage if used incorrectly, and the spray-and-scrape method can harm drywall if it gets too wet or you scrape too aggressively. For these reasons, hiring a professional is often the fastest, easiest, and safest option. A pro has the experience and specialized tools to remove wallpaper efficiently without damaging the underlying surface, which saves time and minimizes the prep work needed for your next wall treatment.

While it is possible to paint over wallpaper, it is generally better to remove it first to guarantee a smooth, professional finish. Painting over wallpaper can save time, but it may lead to issues if not done correctly.

You can paint over existing wallpaper if it is in excellent condition: smooth, non-textured, clean, and firmly adhered to the wall. Ensure there are no bumps, tears, or peeling areas, and that all corners and seams are securely glued down. You might also consider painting over wallpaper if removing it would damage the underlying wall. Additionally, some wallpapers are specifically designed to be paintable, which can add texture to a room.

However, there are risks. If the wallpaper is textured, damaged, or peeling, these imperfections will show through the new paint. The moisture from the paint can also loosen the wallpaper's adhesive, causing it to bubble and potentially damage the wall. To mitigate these issues, clean the surface thoroughly and use an oil-based primer to help the paint adhere and prevent the old adhesive from bleeding through.
