Q: What are the benefits of professional material removal?

• <div><p>Professionals handle heavy lifting, proper disposal, and recycling, reducing environmental impact.</p></div>

Q: How do I maintain walls after wallpaper removal?

• <div><p>Prime and repaint walls after removal to ensure a clean, finished surface.</p></div>

Q: Can I remove my own wallpaper?

• <div><p>It is possible to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/wallpaper-removal.htm">remove wallpaper yourself</a>, but it&rsquo;s typically better to leave the work to a professional. Some types of wallpaper can prove to be a real challenge to remove, and the process is labor intensive regardless, so most homeowners prefer to save themselves time and frustration by hiring a pro. Professional wallpaper companies have special tools like steamers and the experience to use them effectively without damaging the drywall behind it, which can get damaged if it gets too wet. Hiring a pro gets the job done quickly and minimizes the wall prep you&rsquo;ll need to do afterward.</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: Can German schmear be removed?

• <div><p>Think hard before deciding to German schmear your home&rsquo;s exterior brickwork. If you do not like the look, you are pretty much stuck with it, as it is impossible to remove this finish the way you can remove paint. You risk damaging the underlying brick if you have to chisel and acid-wash it away. It will also take a very long time, and remnants of the mortar wash will always remain.</p></div>
