"I can highly recommend T’s Wallcovering for painting and wallpapering. T (Trevor) is an expert in his trade. He gave me a fair estimate for the job that needed to be done - painting and wallpapering 3 large baths, including one with a very high sloping ceiling. Trevor also made some excellent suggestions for me. He was able to restore and rehang a mirror and install new towel racks as well. He could handle the complete job. He was prompt, friendly, knowledgeable, easy to communicate with and thorough. His team was well staffed and ready to go with Trevor himself handling the key and tricky parts of the job. I plan to hire him in the future for additional work that needs to be done."

"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."

"Blue Crew showed up on time to begin painting of offices and hallways. They were done in the time that they had quoted. The work and cleanup were professional. New paint in restroom on floor, stalls and walls was excellent. The products they used make it easier to clean.

"I needed my kitchen, 1/2 bath and nursery painted. Luis and his team did a great job. All we had to do was provide the paint and they took care of everything else. Luis and his crew was on time and professional. We plan to have them come back out to paint other parts of the house as well."

"Can’t say enough good things about this team. Not only do they do excellent work (I am very picky and don’t say excellent often), they are the ultimate professionals. Arrive on time, keep things clean (which is very hard when removing popcorn), regularly communicate status and timeframes, and work hard. Literally couldn’t ask for anything more. Originally, we only asked them to remove the wallpaper and popcorn ceiling. Once we saw how good their work was, we asked them to repair some drywall in another area and do some painting. Highly recommend and would absolutely hire again. You can’t go wrong with David and his team."

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.
