Wallpaper Removal
Because wallpaper fashion comes and goes.
So it make sense to want to refresh the look of your wall
Either with a new wall paper pattern or using a wallpaper removal service to take it away and replace it with a fresh coat of paint. When it comes time to get rid of your wallpaper, it can quickly become a difficult process.
That’s why it’s a job that’s best left to the professionals.
Removing wallpaper is a delicate process that requires the right tools, like a wallpaper steamer and special solvents. It also requires a whole lot of patience! Even with the right tools, you can never be totally sure how the wallpaper is going to behave. Sometimes it comes off relatively easily, and doesn’t leave any damage behind. Other times, you can run into entire sections of wallpaper that just doesn’t want to come off.
How you go about removing it also depends on the type of wallpaper used—some have a vinyl coating, and others can be made of fabric, which each require a different approach for removal. How it was initially applied can also make a big difference in how the removal process goes. For example, if the walls weren’t properly primed before application, this can cause problems when you try to take it off.
While you can certainly try to tackle the job yourself, it’s always best to let professionals take care of it. When we do run into problems with stubborn wallpaper, we know how to deal with it, while preventing damage to the walls.
Removing old wallpaper is a multi-step process.
- First, we’ll prep the surface by spraying it down using a non-toxic solution.
- Once it’s saturated, we’ll carefully remove old wallpaper by using a wallpaper removal tool to gently lift the paper to avoid damage your walls.
- The condition of the wallpaper or wall condition beneath the wallpaper can only be determined after the paper is removed.
- Wallpaper will be vacuumed up leaving no mess.
- The residue is washed and cleaned.
- Next, we’ll repair any small surface imperfections and smooth out the surface with a skim coat and sanding.
- Once the walls are sanded and cleaned, a primer is applied.
- Once it’s ready to paint, we’ll apply the color of your choice.
