"Cliff came in on a Saturday and removed 3 walls of wallpaper. He did a great job with that and we hired him to paint the upper level interior of the house. Again a great job at a fair price. Cliff is a true painting professional and it shows in his work. I'll definitely call Cliff for future painting projects."

"Front Range was such a joy to work with. Mike was great at explaining everything that we needed. Very thorough and professional in every aspect. The job was done in a timely manner, clean up, and the customer service was spot on. We've had neighbors and family ask for Mike's contact information for their needs. We would highly recommend calling Front Range! Thank you again Mike and team for your service "

"I'm so happy with Robert's work, work ethic, communication and attention to detail that I'll be hiring him for additional projects. It's wonderful to work with someone who takes pride in his work and ensures you are comfortable every step of the way. Robert patched the bathroom subfloor and spackled many rooms in the house that showed cracking due to settling or water damage (around windows). In addition, he replaced a toilet, hung a heavy mirror, and replaced bathroom lights. All of this was done with care. I work from home and my kids often school from home and he made sure to avoid noise during meetings, etc. He was also generous with his expertise, open to discussing ideas, but never pushed to take on more than was requested. I'm happy to share such a good experience."

"My wife and I bought our house earlier this year and it needed a new paint job. Nick came out to give us a quote and was very professional and detailed. Nick's crew came out and replaced the damaged side and sealed the siding. The paint crew came out and was fast and effective. Nick followed up to make sure our expectations were met. Thank you Nick and Stellar"

"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. "

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.
