Old paper off. Flawless walls back on.

Wallpaper lives or dies on prep. We strip the old paper cleanly, repair and smooth the wall underneath, then hang your new pattern with tight seams and a match you have to lean in to notice.

Whether you're tearing out a dated print you've stared at for years or dreaming up a bold accent wall, the result comes down to the wall behind the paper. Get that right and wallpaper looks tailored; skip it and every flaw shows through. We don't skip it.

When it's time to call us

  • Old wallpaper is peeling, bubbling, or lifting at the seams
  • A dated pattern or color you're ready to be rid of
  • Previous DIY removal left torn paper, gouges, or glue residue
  • You want a statement accent wall in a mural, grasscloth, or bold print
  • New paper hung over old is bubbling or the seams are splitting

What our wallpaper service covers

Removal, prep, or a fresh install, we handle the whole job or just the part you need:

  • Wallpaper removal, steaming, scoring and stripping old paper and backing without gouging the drywall
  • Adhesive & residue cleanup, every trace of old paste washed off so nothing telegraphs through later
  • Wall prep & smoothing, skim-coating, patching and sanding to a flat, sound surface, then priming
  • New wallpaper install, precise pattern matching, tight seams and bubble-free hanging on any wall
  • Accent walls & murals, grasscloth, peel-and-stick, hand-printed and large-scale murals hung true

How it works

1

Walk the walls

We check what's already up, the drywall condition and your new paper, then give one clear, upfront price.

2

Remove & protect

Floors and furniture get covered, then we steam and strip the old paper and wash off every bit of paste.

3

Prep & prime

We patch, skim-coat and sand the wall flat, then prime it so the new paper grips and comes off cleanly someday.

4

Hang & finish

Your pattern goes up plumb and matched, seams rolled tight, edges trimmed crisp, and we clean up like we were never there.

What you get

  • Fully prepped, primed walls, the part that makes or breaks the finish
  • Upfront flat-rate pricing approved before any work begins
  • Tight seams, matched patterns and a bubble-free, professional hang
  • Dust-controlled work and a spotless space when we leave

Wallpaper questions

Good to know

Can you remove old wallpaper without wrecking the wall?+
Yes, that's the whole point of hiring it out. We score, steam and strip the paper and its backing patiently, then wash off the paste. If the drywall was damaged by earlier DIY removal, we patch and skim it smooth before anything new goes up.
Do I have to buy the wallpaper myself?+
You can, and most homeowners love picking their own pattern. Bring us the rolls, or share what you're after and we'll help you calculate quantity, plan the pattern repeat, and order enough with a little overage so seams and matches come out right.
Can you just do one accent wall?+
Absolutely, accent walls are one of our most-requested jobs. A single wall in a bold print, grasscloth, or mural transforms a room, and we handle the layout so the pattern lands centered and balanced instead of awkwardly cut at the corners.
Why does prep matter so much?+
Because wallpaper hides nothing, a flat, primed wall is what keeps seams tight and the surface bubble-free. We skim and sand out dents and old texture and prime with the right product, which also means the paper releases cleanly when you redecorate later. Serious damage gets proper drywall repair first.
Can you paint a wall after stripping the paper instead?+
Definitely. Plenty of removals end in paint rather than new paper. Once the wall is stripped, repaired and primed it's the perfect base for a smooth painted finish, just let us know and we'll prep it for paint instead.
