Q: How long does it take pros to remove wallpaper?

• <div><p>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&rsquo;s age, the condition of the walls, and more.</p></div>

Q: How long does wallpaper in a bathroom last?

• <div><p>Wallpaper in bathrooms can last anywhere from one to 10 years, depending on what type was used, how well it was installed, and the measures in place to reduce moisture and humidity levels. Opting for a more durable variety and taking all the necessary protective measures will get you closer to that longer lifespan. </p></div>

Q: Can I paint over wallpaper?

• <div><p>You can <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/5-tips-paintable-wallpaper.htm">paint over existing wallpaper</a> if you select wallpaper that is designed to be paintable. This type of paper is meant to add texture to walls. Alternatively, if you have old wallpaper you&rsquo;d like to cover up, you can often paint over that instead of removing it. However, it needs to be smooth, damage-free, and non-textured. Otherwise, any bumps, tears, and texture will show through the paint.</p></div>

Q: Is hiring a wallpaper removal specialist worth it?

• <div><p>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.</p></div>
