"Antonio, at Greenovative, was great. I really enjoyed his professionalism. He and his crew found creative ways to decrease the price of the project. We are happy we gave Greenovative this project. Honestly, we will use them again."

"Brian was not only a delight to work with but also such a fine, expert and caring wallpaper hanger! He was meticulous, always on time and truly cared about the job he was doing. His communication skills are excellent, always keeping us informed as to what he was doing. We must say, it is unusual to come across such a dedicated working professional. He did such a beautiful job in hanging our paper. It was a large project. He did 7 rooms in our house of which all are now gorgeous! The hallway/step area was extremely challenging to do as the walls/angles go up quite high. Perfection! Not a problem for Brian! We miss him already not seeing his smiling face as he entered our home in the morning and throughout the day. Another thing we really liked is that he did not rush through things. His detail to attention was great. He always had the time to ask our opinions and such. We LOVE Brian! If you want to have a great job done and someone whom is a pleasure to have in your home, you need not look any further! Hire Brian. You will not be disappointed. We feel very lucky and fortunate to know him and have him restore our 90+ year old home back to it's former glory. Keep on hanging, Brian ... you are the best! Joan and Brent"

Wallpaper Removal FAQs, answered by experts

When comparing peel-and-stick and traditional wallpaper, the better choice depends on your specific needs and space. Peel-and-stick wallpaper is more budget-friendly and easier to DIY install. On the other hand, traditional wallpaper lasts much longer and holds up better in a wider variety of spaces, including areas with moisture like kitchens and bathrooms.

Removing a wallpaper border requires the same process to remove full walls of wallpaper. Clear the area, spray down the surface with your hot water and vinegar solution or store-bought spray, wait 10 to 15 minutes, then scrape it off with a putty knife. Sometimes, border wallpaper lifts easier than larger sheets, so you can just peel it right off the wall by hand.

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.

Wallpaper lasts an average of around 15 years, but there is some variance. The type of wallpaper matters, as vinyl wallpaper tends to last the longest—sometimes 20 years or more—while a peel-and-stick wallpaper, which is the easiest to install for DIYers, will usually only last for around five years. Exposure to high humidity, smoke, and UV rays from sunlight can also limit the lifespan of your wallpaper, as can heavy traffic in the installation area.

Rubbing alcohol may help dissolve stubborn wallpaper adhesive that remains after removal, but be sure to apply it carefully to prevent damaging your walls. Apply a small amount using a cotton swab or pad, then gently scrape or wipe the adhesive away.
