"Kim was very professional and actually showed up when she said she would. (not all contractors do) It was a 3 day job and at the end of each day, all of the material and tools were neatly tucked out of the way. I would recommend Straight Up Wallcoverings for all of your wallpaper needs."

"On time, very careful in keeping the area of work isolated from the rest of the house. A friendly, professional group of skilled plasterers. Had to have them return after painting to go over one small area of concern, but they went the extra mile and addressed a few areas I did not even see. These guys are great, and the fresh scones from the office was a nice touch!"

"From quote to completion of work, the job went great. Mike's team was extremely courteous, professional and timely throughout the execution of the project. In fact the initial quote was for 4 days but they completed it in 3 and on budget. The work involved the removal of 30 year old wall paper, scrape, resurface walls/ceilings and paint. The rooms really look fantastic. We are planning another similar project for the master bedroom and living room, I will definitely have them execute that project as well. Mike, also gave us some great ideas for how to finish dark wood staircase to give it a more up to date look and so will look for his company to take on that project as well. Highly recommend them for any drywall/painting projects."

"I highly recommend Stellar Painting. We used them for a large project. They painted all of the baseboards, window trim, walls and interior doors of two levels of our home. They sanded and stained all of the wood columns and ceiling beams and the entire staircase and banister. Adolfo and Carlos were in our home for six weeks and they were very nice and always professional. They were always here when they said they would be and worked hard each day. Mike and Patty managed the project and they were also a pleasure to work with. They all did an excellent job! Everything looks beautiful. We will be using them again in the future to remodel our basement."

"Wall Rebuilders just completed repairing 2 ceilings for us and we couldn't be more pleased with the results or the experience. Professional, friendly and committed to detail and satisfaction. The two who executed the project were friendly and obviously very experienced. They went the extra mile to ensure that furniture and carpets were well protected and replaced. A genuine credit to their company. Would highly recommend them. Results were beyond our expectations."

"They did work 2 weeks ago. They did interior painting for me in a stairwell in a lodge. I would highly recommend them. They were easy to work with and I wished Angie's List would let me give them an A+."

FAQs for wallcovering or wallpaper removal projects in Denver, CO

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.
