Wallpaper Removal questions, answered by experts

You can paint over wallpaper if it’s smooth and in good shape. But if there are bumps or tears in the wallpaper, they’ll likely show through the paint.

Yes, most professionals patch and smooth walls after removal to prepare for new finishes.

Most jobs take 1-3 days, depending on room size and adhesive strength.
