Fast, Professional, Worry-Free: Professional Wallpaper Removal and Installation

Posted on May 11, 2023

Many homeowners are doing spring cleaning and looking around at their home’s interior only to be inspired for a new look, maybe new decor, furniture, paint color, or even wallpaper. If you have existing wallpaper and are considering removing it to either paint the walls or install new wallpaper, consider the advantages of having professionals do the job.

Wallpaper removal is a frustrating, difficult and time-consuming task for several reasons.

  1. Resistance: For the do-it-yourselfer, removing old wallpaper is tough because the glue has dried and resists being detached from the surface. Certain tools and experience are needed, or you’ll simply end up tearing off small sections at a time or accidentally pulling loose the sheetrock underneath and damaging the walls.
  2. Residue: The glue residue left on the surface will be difficult to peel off.
  3. Time and Fuss: This is much easier and quicker when performed by professionals with the know-how and correct tools.

Wallpaper is a popular choice in design in 2023, and there’s no sign of it changing. People are using it in kitchens, bathrooms, and on accent walls in Northwest Florida and across the world.
