Our Wallpaper Removal Process

We follow a step-by-step process to ensure the efficient and thorough removal of wallpaper from your walls:

1. Initial Assessment

Before starting the removal process, our team assesses the type of wallpaper, the condition of the wall underneath, and the adhesive used. This helps us determine the most effective removal method without causing damage.

2. Preparation

• We protect your furniture, floors, and surrounding areas with sheets and covers.
• Electrical outlets and light switches are safely covered to prevent moisture exposure.
• If necessary, we apply a mild wallpaper-softening solution to loosen stubborn adhesives.

3. Wallpaper Removal

Depending on the type of wallpaper and how it was applied, we use one or more of the following methods:

• Dry Stripping: Suitable for removable wallpapers that peel off easily without leaving residue.
• Steam Removal: A highly effective method using a wallpaper steamer to loosen the adhesive, making it easier to peel off stubborn wallpaper.
• Chemical Solution Removal: We apply a non-toxic wallpaper removal solution to break down the glue, making removal easier without harming the wall surface.

4. Adhesive Residue Cleaning

Once the wallpaper is removed, we carefully clean any remaining adhesive to ensure a smooth, residue-free surface. This is crucial to prepare the wall for repainting or re-wallpapering.

5. Surface Repair & Smoothing

• Any minor cracks, holes, or damages caused by old wallpaper adhesive are repaired.
• We sand and smoothen the walls to create an even surface.
• If required, we apply a primer to protect the wall and enhance paint or new wallpaper adhesion.
