"Great company and best people to be around. This was a big project restoring the exterior of an 1838 house. The prep work was fantastic followed by a very profressional brush painted finish. I could not have asked for more. During the project we had cars stopping on the road to look and watch the project. That is when you know your doing some transformational. Great Job!"

"I have elected to hire him on a probationary basis until such time as I see his work. Since we have received no snow since I contacted Home Advisor, it is impossible for me to evaluate his work. I am meeting with him on Monday and if everything is mutually satisfactory for both of us regarding the timing and cost of his services, as well as receiving his acceptance of the work standards I require, I will conditionally hire him. Your survey is premature since I have not yet hired him and accordingly I have been forced to give him 5 Star ratings before Home Advisor will allow me to submit this survey. I recommend ,that in the future, you revamp this survey to allow submission under conditions that have not yet been finalized!"

Wallpaper Removal questions, answered by experts

While it is possible to paint over wallpaper, it is generally better to remove it first to guarantee a smooth, professional finish. Painting over wallpaper can save time, but it may lead to issues if not done correctly.

You can paint over existing wallpaper if it is in excellent condition: smooth, non-textured, clean, and firmly adhered to the wall. Ensure there are no bumps, tears, or peeling areas, and that all corners and seams are securely glued down. You might also consider painting over wallpaper if removing it would damage the underlying wall. Additionally, some wallpapers are specifically designed to be paintable, which can add texture to a room.

However, there are risks. If the wallpaper is textured, damaged, or peeling, these imperfections will show through the new paint. The moisture from the paint can also loosen the wallpaper's adhesive, causing it to bubble and potentially damage the wall. To mitigate these issues, clean the surface thoroughly and use an oil-based primer to help the paint adhere and prevent the old adhesive from bleeding through.

Costs depend on wallpaper type, wall condition, labor, and necessary repairs.

Yes, many companies offer convenient options to accommodate service timing needs.

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

Hiring a professional wallpaper remover is almost always worthwhile. Although the work is more expensive due to labor costs, doing it yourself is extremely time-consuming, complicated, and easy to make mistakes and wreak havoc on your walls, regardless of the tools you use. Professional wallpaper removers have the tools and experience to get old wallpaper down quickly and without damaging the walls behind it.
