"They did a superb job. Everything was covered and protected. Arrived when they said they would. Used quality materials and knew what they were doing. I was particularly impressed with the prep work they did prior to painting. Absolutely no hesitation in using them again or recommending them."

"This company performed a stellar job . I was impressed by the quality of the work , the professionalism and the communication . Mr. Green was very thorough and detailed , kept me appraised of every step of the job and explained to me what needed to be done and why. They started on a Saturday, showed up every day at exactly the time they said they were showing up. For a potentially messy job, they left the house clean , covering the floor every morning and removing the cover every day at the end of the day . The workmanship was also excellent. I will hire them again ."

"I am very pleased with the interior painting project L&A ProPainting, LLC completed on by house. They were very professional and experienced. They were prompt and always on time. They moved and covered the furniture in each room before painting, and put all the furniture back in place when they finished each room. They also cleaned up after the job was completed. I would highly recommend L&A ProPainting, LLC, and I will use them again for any painting project I may have in the future."

"Kevin was wonderful to work with from start to finish and I would highly recommend him. I wanted wallpaper installed on the ceiling of my sonâ  s room, which is more laborious than the typical wall installation, and he did such an amazing job. He was extremely efficient and knowledgeable, and I will definitely hire him again for any future installations!"

FAQs for wallcovering or wallpaper removal projects in Greensboro, 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.
