FAQ

Wallpaper removal questions

Can you paint over wallpaper?

It's possible, but seams and texture often show through, and it makes later removal harder. Removing it first gives a better finish.

How long does wallpaper removal take?

From a few hours per room for easy dry stripping to several days for stubborn, multi-layer jobs.
