Wallpaper Removal FAQs

What Are the Issues with Removing Wallpaper?

Removing wallpaper is time consuming, messy and requires patience. Most removal processes require steam or a damp sponge. If you use too much water, it can damage the underlying sheet rock. When you begin to peel the wallpaper away from the wall it may come off in tiny strips. Keep a trash bag handy and dispose of the wallpaper as you go. Discarded slightly damp pieces of wallpaper can easily adhere to other surfaces. It is easy to create nicks and holes in the underlying sheet rock when removing wallpaper. An extensive amount of patch and repair work may be needed to prepare the walls for painting.

What Is the Trick to Removing Wallpaper?

The trick to removing wallpaper is lightly moistening the paper using a spray bottle or damp sponge. Fill the spray bottle with hot water and a small amount of fabric softener (about 1/4 cup of fabric softener per gallon of hot water). Lightly saturate one section of the wallpaper at a time starting at the top left and working your way down.

How Long Does It Take to Remove Wallpaper?

Removing wallpaper from an average-sized room can take a full day or longer. The time it takes can depend on the age of the wall and how much prep work was done when the wallpaper was applied.

Top Quality Painters! Larry Stewart Painting is a superior professional painting company. They are efficient, hardworking, and detail-oriented. They recently power-washed my home in the Governors Club in Chapel Hill, replaced an exterior door to the garage, repaired wood rot, repainted my exterior lights, varnished all the porch ceilings, re-stained the porch floor, hand painted an outdoor spiral staircase, re-stained the front door,caulked all seams, and brush painted all the trim and siding. I had received several cheaper estimates for the job but the other contractors proposed using lower quality paint and spray painting the siding. I was very impressed with the labor intensive brush work on the entire house. Every morning for two weeks, two vans with six men would arrive at 7:30 am wearing clean white painters coveralls prepared to work. Each day they were organized, pre-planned, quiet, courteous, and cleaned up as they worked. The crew completed their duties like skilled craftsmen. Larry Stewart has been painting houses for over 30 years, the experience and expertise are evident in the outcome.

Mr. Stewart is a man of his word. He promised a beautiful job and that is what we got. The crew was professional, courteous, and their work was meticulous. I could not find anything that wasn't done perfectly. Mr. Stewart is always available to take your call and his timeline is right on point. The best decision we ever made was having Mr. Stewart and his crew paint our house. Do yourself a favor and hire the best!
