"Brian Bilski did an excellent job for us. It turned out exactly as we hoped it would. He was very willing to work with us on this project. Work was completed in a very timely manner and we were not inconvenienced at all. We will definitely call brian again for any future painting projects."

"They did a great job. Removed popcorn ceiling, repaired cracks in ceiling and walls. Removed wallpaper and repaired bulge in wall. Primed and painted. They protected all surfaces and cleaned up after themselves."

"We had a great experience with Kurt and the crew that worked on our house. One of the things I appreciated the most was the advice - there are a lot of choices in a 130-year-old house. We got a solid analysis of the options and what the cost tradeoffs would be. The prep quality and daily clean-up were exactly what I would expect from a group of professionals. The acid test came with the crew discovering some loose wallpaper and a big area of loose plaster that the prior owners had painted over in the stairwell. We reassessed, agreed on a plan of action, and the work was finished quickly. It all looks great. I plan to use Home Transformation again when we need painting or repairs done. I can recommend them without reservation."

"Prime Time came in and took care of removing 30 year old wallpaper/paste, preparing and painting our large country kitchen. It was much more work than we wanted to do and they did a great job. The two-man crew was on time both days and did a tremendous job in getting the walls in decent shape and ready to paint. We wouldn't hesitate to call them again for any painting needs."

"From the moment I called him for an estimate Steve was a true professional. He made arrangements to come over that night to look at the 2 rooms and provide a detailed estimate. He was able to fit the job in right away and did a great job. The job was particularly tough due to the multiple layers and incorrect preparation done when the 1st layer of wallpaper was put on. Steve persevered and got the job done. While the cost was a bit more than the original estimate this was caused by the poor preparation when the very original wallpaper was put on."

"Nick did a wonderful job with the painting. My daughter is thrilled with the way her room looks now. Nick was friendly and professional and even offered to touch up the baseboard (that had paint on it from a previous painting) and help move heavy items back in her room. Would definitely hire him again."

FAQs for wallcovering or wallpaper removal projects in Saint-paul, MN

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.
