What Professional Wallpaper Removal Includes
Wallpaper removal is more than pulling a corner and hoping it peels. The right approach depends on paper type, age, and how it was installed. Our experienced Lexington painters identify the material, test a small area, and choose the safest method for your walls. We protect floors and fixtures, score or steam as needed, and remove adhesive so the surface is clean, dry, and ready for primer.
Once your walls are smooth, most homeowners move straight into a color refresh. If that’s your plan, we can coordinate seamless interior painting so you don’t have to juggle multiple crews or timelines.

How Our Wallpaper Removal Process Works
Careful Setup And Protection
We start by moving or covering furniture, masking trim, and protecting floors. Switch plates come off, outlet areas are taped, and we create a tidy workspace that stays out of your way as much as possible.
Testing, Scoring, And Safe Removal
Every home is different. We test a discreet area to see how the paper reacts, then decide whether to use a removal solution, a steamer, or a combination. Proper scoring allows the solution to reach the adhesive without over‑saturating your walls.
Adhesive Cleanup And Surface Repairs
After the paper is off, we remove paste residue, so the primer and paint adhere correctly. If the previous installation damaged the surface or multiple layers caused tears, we complete targeted patching and feather sanding. For areas that need extra attention, we may recommend focused drywall repair for a flawless result.
Prime And Paint‑Ready
We spot prime repairs and can apply a bonding primer across the entire wall if needed. Want to keep the momentum going? Our crew can roll right into your new color with coordinated interior painting.
