We start by preparing and protecting areas of your home that we won't be working in. Including covering walls, floors, fixtures, and appliances. This prevents solvent and water, paint, glue and other debris from damaging nearby surfaces.

When it comes to the removal of the wallpaper, we utilize various techniques: 

  1. Peeling: Physically removing the wallpaper from your walls.
  2. Steaming: to remove the adhesive Left after the peeling process.
  3. Hot water and soap: Old-fashioned elbow grease and water.
  4. Solvents: Used to dissolve the glue for removal, but used as a last resort.

Once the wall is free of the old wallpaper, it’s time to clean up, and prep the wall for paint.
