"Great paint job two floors two colors about 20 hrs of work can't beat speed or price. I will be using them for my third floor and garage. My only suggestion would be for the company to use a service like [*** Link removed ***] to handle schedules and contract paperwork."

"We have used Honorio and his crew for two properties. I highly recommend him. He is professional, timely, and a true craftsman. He painted all but two rooms in our home including walls, trim, molding, shelving, a fireplace, grasscloth wallpaper, and wainscotting. He also patched and painted our stairwell, patched and painted pet damage to a front door and cabinet. Honorio and his crew truly transformed our home."

"We had a wonderful experience with this painting business. We are selling our house and got a few estimates to have the entire interior painted. Blue Crew came in with the lowest quote at $10,000. A handyman gave me pause when he told me that there is no way our house could be painted for under $15,000. But the reviews for Blue Crew were so good on Angie's List that I decided to go with them and hope for the best. I am SO glad we did! Not only did they do a terrific job, the crew was super friendly and professional. They even worked around some scheduling glitches that were my fault without a word of complaint. Overall an extremely positive experience for a great price.

"They did it all in one day. Had one little problem, most people would have taken care of it themselves but I’m disabled and they came back to help me as my house was for sale. Too many comments about the wallpaper so it had to be removed. The house sold two days later!!! Thanks for the great job well done."

FAQs for wallcovering or wallpaper removal projects in Charlotte, NC

You can determine your wall type through tactile and visual tests. Start by checking the surface by inserting a thumbtack, feeling the texture, tapping to listen for a hollow sound, and examining cut edges under outlet covers. Drywall feels soft with a hollow sound, while plaster is hard and solid. These checks are especially useful in older homes where plaster is more common.

After removing wallpaper, you can dispose of small amounts in your household trash. However, if you are removing wallpaper from your entire home, you’ll need to contact a waste removal service, rent a dumpster, or arrange a special pick-up with your municipality’s waste service. Wallpaper cannot be recycled, so it is important to keep it separate from the recycling stream to comply with local waste guidelines.

It takes a professional from several hours up to a full day to remove wallpaper from a single room. The removal duration depends on the type of adhesive, the age of the wallpaper, the condition of the wall, and the number of layers present. High ceilings and additional layers increase the time required, as extra care is taken to protect the wall surface while ensuring a complete removal.

Using fabric softener with water is an option for removing wallpaper, but its effectiveness is limited and depends on the type of wallpaper being used. This low-cost method is most effective on modern, less porous wallpaper and may not yield optimal results on vintage or textured varieties. It might also affect wall surface preparation for new coverings if the residue is not completely removed. For stubborn adhesive or textured surfaces, professional solutions are recommended to ensure a thorough removal without damaging the underlying wall.
