Q: How much does it cost to remove wallpaper?

• <div><p>The average <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-it-cost-remove-wallpaper.htm">cost to remove wallpaper</a> is <b>$790</b>. The final price tag depends on the size of the room and the complexity of the project, and can range from <b>$200 to $2,000</b>. Usually, removing peel-and-stick wallpaper is on the lower end of the cost scale, as it doesn't require special tools to remove.</p></div>

Q: Can you add new wallpaper over existing wallpaper?

• <div><p>In most cases, you cannot wallpaper over existing wallpaper. It&rsquo;s possible to wallpaper over non-coated wallpaper, but vinyl-coated wallpaper is much more prevalent in homes, so you generally shouldn&rsquo;t put new wallpaper over existing wallpaper. Adding a layer of wallpaper over vinyl-coated paper will lead to poor adhesion, leaving behind bubbles and imperfections in your wall. Plus, wallpapering over vinyl-coated wallpaper can lead to mold growth, which can be hazardous to your health. It&rsquo;s usually best to hire a local wallpaper removal service to handle the task to avoid these issues.</p></div>

Q: What factors influence the cost of removing wallpaper?

• <div><p>The cost varies from $1 to $3 per square foot, depending on the type of wallpaper, the wall condition, and the labor involved.</p></div>
