"We couldn’t be more impressed! Dennis was absolutely meticulous!!! He went above and beyond. He successfully removed some wallpaper, and was quite knowledgeable of the process as well ask how to safely do this. He kept the house so neat and clean during his work and there wasn’t a speck of paint on the floor after he left! He prepped the walls, filling MANY holes, and you’d never be able to tell! We couldn’t be happier!!! Thanks Dennis!!!! Highly highly recommend!!!"

"Jay and his team did a great job on my project. They were respectful of my time and space, keeping the job on track with the timeframe quoted to me. They were also one of the cleanest companies I have worked with. There was nothing left for me to do once they were done, but enjoy the space. I would highly recommend."

"We had significant house and barn repairs. From the beginning Clayton was prompt, courteous and reliable. He replaced a completely rotted out basement window, a rotted out house window sill, replaced custom decking on entry steps (great wood recommendation and finish), and fixed a barn/shed door which had literally fallen off the hinges (included frame replacement and installed a metal splash fixture to prevent future rot). Clayton has a good sense of how to repair and to prevent future problems based on his many years of experience and all at a reasonable rate."

Wallpaper Removal FAQs, answered by experts

If you’re installing new wallpaper and have leftover glue, you can remove unused wallpaper paste from the bucket or pan it’s in by letting it dry. If it’s an oil-based paste, seal it in a plastic bag and throw it in the garbage. Otherwise, toss the leftover wallpaper paste in the trash. Although it’s water-soluble, don’t rinse unused wallpaper paste down the sink because it could dry in the pipes and cause a blockage.

Peel-and-stick wallpaper is designed to be removed without damaging walls, making it a good choice for renters or temporary design changes. However, damage to paint or drywall can occur under certain conditions. To prevent issues, the wall surface must be properly prepared before application—it should be clean, smooth, dry, and correctly primed or painted. Applying wallpaper to a freshly painted surface can cause the paint to peel off during removal. Additionally, removing the wallpaper too quickly or aggressively can also cause damage. For best results, always follow the manufacturer's instructions for both application and removal.

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.

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.
