"We recently purchased a home whose previous tenants had smoked in the house. We hired Dâ s Home and Move as we had heard through friends that they did great work. The guys who showed up were professional and extremely helpful. Initially we only hired them for ceilings and had another plan for the walls, but they were able to make the entire house look brand new and at a cost that couldnâ t be beat. Overly happy with the results of our new home and will absolutely be referring others and using their services again."

"Working with Matt was great! He kept me informed on all aspects of the job. The job was completed and he even came back to check his employees work to make sure I was happy. I thought that was wonderful. Takes pride and I like that. I will definitely use him again."

"Last year we hired Empire to paint our three-story Victorian home. Bruno and his competent helpers did an excellent job. The Old Lady looks spectacular. Their attention to detail, their cleanliness and, most important, their good nature made working with them a pleasure. We hired them this year to fix/paint three ceilings that have the original 150 year old plaster, which they did impeccably and with ease. Next up is painting our garage this spring. We have nothing but good things to say about this company and its crew."

Wallpaper Removal questions, answered by experts

To remove adhesive-backed wallpaper, you’ll need to soften the adhesive before you try peeling the wallpaper off the walls. You may wonder whether peel-and-stick wallpaper damages walls. It can depend on the removal method. Make sure to be patient and consider using a steamer, hair dryer, or adhesive remover to carefully take down adhesive-backed wallpaper.

We don’t recommend wallpapering over older paper. That’s because creating layers of glue can invite bubbling or excess moisture on the wall’s surface. You should also prime your wall before applying wallpaper and smooth the wall as much as you can, and another layer of wallpaper complicates this process.

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.

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.
