"Remodeling an older home can be a headache, having little to no free time to commit to doing
the work myself I set out to find a quality company that could give me a quick turn around in time for the holiday season. 
With an imminent need to have my floors stripped and re-finished, wallpaper
removed as well as several rooms in need of painting I needed someone
that could offer me a fair price to do the whole job in a short time frame.
Elysium was incredible; an estimator came to house the same day as I called to
schedule a quote and began work the following week. Four rooms of removed
wallpaper borders, some drywall patching later and the topcoat was applied.
With the wall paper gone and the new paint on the walls, my house got a complete 
facelift. The crew that performed work on my house was respectful of
the project timeline and of our home and property. They held their word every
step of the way and the crew chief stayed in communication with me through out
the duration of the project. If you need a quick and professional turn around
Elysium has got skill and ability to take care of your project.

"Reggie was able to come out and quote the job and fit me into his schedule the following week as I had an urgent need. They arrived on-time and worked efficiently over the two days that were projected. They had to do some wall and ceiling repairs, paint vaulted ceilings and walls of living/dining/kitchen and hall. One patch needed extra attention and Reggie arranged to come back and fixed it to my liking. Overall, great painters, very dependable and efficient. Thanks Lofton Pro Painting!"

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.

You’ll need to wash the walls to remove wallpaper adhesive residue after removal as part of the prep process for painting or rehanging wallpaper. Old adhesive can cause texture issues and prevent paint or wallpaper from adhering properly to the wall’s surface.

The simple nature of peel and stick wallpaper means it should come off much more easily than traditional wallpaper that is glued to your walls. You’ll still want to work slowly and carefully to avoid tearing it, but most peel and stick wallpaper should come off without a chemical agent to loosen it.

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.

Hiring a professional wallpaper remover is almost always worthwhile. Although the work is more expensive due to labor costs, doing it yourself is extremely time-consuming, complicated, and easy to make mistakes and wreak havoc on your walls, regardless of the tools you use. Professional wallpaper removers have the tools and experience to get old wallpaper down quickly and without damaging the walls behind it.
