"The project went pretty well overall. Jeff removed a tissue paper covered with wall paper paste from the bathroom walls by scraping it and then mudding in the imperfections in the wall. He also removed old tiolet paper holder and towel rack and drywalled those areas. The bathroom was then repainted. The scraping created more dust than I was expecting. He cleaned up after the job, but the dust really settled into baseboards and six panel doors. We are happy with the job that was done. The price was good."

"It went great.  The walls in one bathroom were in rough shape owing to wallpaper removal efforts on my part.  I thought Pro Decor would just paint the room but they exceeded expectations with the skim coat.  The ceiling in the kitchen had a bad seam where a wall had been removed and badly patched by a contractor.  Pro Decor dug out those bad results and fixed it correctly.  It all looks great and the price was equally great."

"Marcos and his crew did an outstanding job for me.  I'm picky, and was thrilled with the work performed.  I am a repeat customer. (he stained my deck last year)  This time, he removed wallpaper and painted my dining room. This was not an easy task, but the end result is amazing. He also painted my entire interior, fixed all the holes in the walls, and even painted the crown molding. He did a great job with the 2 story foyer and family room.  My interior looks like a brand new home. I highly recommend this provider! Thanks!

"We were so pleased with this company! I originally contacted Manny about a 16 hr Big Deal for wallpaper removal and booked an appt the following week. We then got ahold of a wallpaper steamer and removed the wallpaper ourselves. This resulted in a huge mess. The steamer made the primer under the wallpaper bubble and pop. I contacted Manny and explained we removed the wallpaper but now needed paint and repair services. He was very understanding and accommodating, which I appreciated since we changed our appt from a 16 hr job to an 8 hr job. In 8 hours, they were able to apply drywall mud to damaged areas, sand, apply 1 coat of primer and 1 coat of paint. The walls look great! We will definitely contact them again in the future for drywall repair and painting!"

"Hole was cut into textured ceiling in order to install a new bath fan. Luther was called to provide an estimate. He scheduled quickly and arrived promptly. He thoroughly described what would be required and provided a reasonable bid. Scheduling was a bit complicated as this was a small job that they tried to fit in between other jobs. Once scheduled, the crew arrived promptly. They covered all surfaces to/from the bathroom and within the bathroom to protect from damage and did excellent work. The textures are a close match to others in the home. They explained how long to allow the work to dry before painting."

"It was wonderful! John & Patrick met me at my sister's house. They removed the doors and loaded the fridge on to their truck. They got it to my house 4 blocks away. They unloaded it, put the doors back on and got it in place without a scratch! Perfect!"

Wallpaper Removal questions, answered by experts

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.

Rubbing alcohol may help dissolve stubborn wallpaper adhesive that remains after removal, but be sure to apply it carefully to prevent damaging your walls. Apply a small amount using a cotton swab or pad, then gently scrape or wipe the adhesive away.

Removing wallpaper can be easy if you have a non-coated wallpaper, but most homeowners have vinyl-coated wallpaper, which is more durable but tears very easily during the removal process. This feature makes it challenging and time-consuming to remove most wallpaper. There are tools to speed up the process, like steamers, but, unfortunately, it’s easy to permanently damage your walls when using them. In most cases, it’s best to hire a professional wallpaper remover to get the job done quickly and without damaging your home.

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.

Using a fabric softener solution is a popular and low-cost DIY method for removing wallpaper, but its effectiveness is limited. While it may work on some types of wallpaper, it is unlikely to be successful on vintage styles, and there is no evidence that it is more effective than other removal methods. There are also several potential downsides: the solution can leave behind a residue that may damage your walls or interfere with the adhesion of new wallpaper. Additionally, this method can create a strong, overpowering aroma that takes a long time to dissipate, making it a poor choice for homeowners sensitive to smells.
