FAQ : Wallpaper Removal Service
How long does wallpaper removal take?

Will wallpaper removal damage my walls?
No — when done professionally, wallpaper removal should not damage your walls. We take every precaution to preserve your wall surface and offer patching and repair services if any imperfections are uncovered.

Once the wallpaper and adhesive are fully removed, we clean the surface thoroughly. If requested, we can apply primer to prepare the wall for painting or new wallpaper installation.
