"Trevor did a great job. I chose a peel and stick wallpaper which is more difficult to hang than traditional wallpaper but Trevor proved to be excellent dealing with this type of wall paper. I highly recommend Trevor to anyone looking for someone to hang wallpaper for them."

"We have been house hunting for about a year now and just can’t replace what we already have in our current sunny south Charlotte home. So we decided to make a major color shift from boring beige to gorgeous grey, and freshen up all doors & trim, remove all the decor and just stay put. Sounds good, but there are so many nail pops, nail holes, area’s where the sheet rock tape is lifting, wall “pimples” & cracks. Certainly beyond what we can do. We had 5 different companies come out for estimates. What a cast if characters! But one company stood out... From the initial meeting with Ben of Painting & Moore we were sold on Painting & Moore. And when the estimate came back, even more so! The team assigned to our job was fantastic! Guillermo, Darlene & Carlos showed up on time & ready to go EVERY DAY with smiles on! They were extremely respectful of our home and were patient with our “cranky” dogs. The quality of work goes beyond what we expected! No detail was too small as they worked methodically through our huge job. Ben stopped by daily to check in with us. I should mention, after the contract was signed I decided to wallpaper a room already included in the cost. Ben was not concerned about it at all. He swapped in some other items for us. (It was more then fair!) When you undertake a project like ours (whole house) that takes a full week, it’s important the work team enjoys what they are doing. Lets face it, you are sharing your home for 9 hrs a day. Painting & Moore has a pleasant staff. They smile throughout the work day, take pride in the work they do & quality workmanship they provide. It makes a huge difference! I highly recommend Painting & Moore!"

"Capital Painting was great to work with. We have a little one on the way and had a tight deadline to get some interior painting done prior to birth. Capital Painting sent a hard working pair of painters and they knocked out a challenging stairway wall, foyer, and bathroom all in one day. We liked it so much we asked to get an additional stairway wall painted in an even tighter timeline and Jami w/ Capital Painting made it happen. Special shout out to the incredibly thorough painter Jiksy who came out on Memorial Day holiday to wrap up the project. She worked incredibly hard to get the job done that day. Her and her helper worked quickly and with close attention to detail to deliver a great finished product. I would highly recommend using Capital Painting, especially if you are looking for a contractor who can deliver quality on a tight timeline."

"Albert was very prompt on the day that he came to do the estimate. He was very professional. We scheduled the work to start on the following Monday at 9 a.m. I had to call at 9:30 when he didn't show up. He was at my house within half an hour and was very apologetic. We had discussed the possibility of them starting on Saturday and he forgot to write our appointment time down. He had planned to only have one worker but due to the misunderstanding on the appointment day and time, he made up for it by bringing two people to strip the wallpaper to ensure that the job was completed in the two days allotted. The workers were very courteous. The second day only required one person to complete the work and she was very efficient but she did come a half hour later than she had told me the day before. She completed the job in just  few hours. I had not planned for the baseboard to also be painted so had not bought any paint for that part of the job. She called Albert who had her go to pick up some paint to do the baseboards at no extra charge. She put the room completely back together, tank on the toilet, towel rack back on the wall and asked for the switchplate and outlet plate which I had removed prior to them coming, so that she could put them back in place as well. The room was cleaned of all debris. I am very happy with the job that Albert's crew did and would definitely hire him again.

Wallpaper Removal FAQs, answered by experts

It can take a professional anywhere between several hours and a full day to remove wallpaper in one room. How long wallpaper removal takes depends on the type of adhesive, the wallpaper’s age, the condition of the walls, and more.

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.

Yes, you can pay someone to strip wallpaper. Before you hang new wallpaper, you should hire a local wallpaper removal service to prep the surface properly. Wallpaper removal pros cost $0.55 to $1.50 per square foot or $500 to $700 per room. Prices vary by room size and removal technique, as some options are more labor-intensive.

Professionals handle heavy lifting, proper disposal, and recycling, reducing environmental impact.

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