"If you're looking for a painting company that truly lives up to its name, I highly recommend Noren's Deluxe Pro Painting. The "Deluxe Pro" description is very fitting for this organization. We needed the entire interior of our home painted before moving in, including ceilings, walls, doors, door frames, window sills, banisters, and other trim work. Because the house was empty, it provided access to every surface, and the team took full advantage of the opportunity to deliver an exceptional finished product. From start to finish, they were extremely professional, detail-oriented, and diligent. They didn't just paint—they took the time to repair drywall imperfections, properly prepare surfaces, and ensure everything was completed to a very high standard. Their attention to detail was evident in every room. What impressed me most was their trustworthiness and reliability. I provided them with the door code, and they came and went each day for about a week while completing the project."

"Excellent work by team. Any concerns or questions were immediately addressed by Jorge. Jorge made several trips to job site to ensure job was going as planned. It was a pleasure working with Jorge as he is highly committed to customer service and providing a quality product. I would hire Renovation Solutions again."

"Mario was always on time. He is a very conscientious worker and did an excellent job of removing our wallpaper, even though we had three layers. He worked very hard and did a great job of cleaning up. I would definitely recommend him to anyone!"

"The work was done professionally and quickly.  It took sometime to get an appointment booked, and due to some
unforeseen circumstances, they missed my appointment which was frustrating as I'd taken the day off specifically for this work to be done.  They offered me an additional hour of work at no charge for the inconvenience.  It turned out the work I needed done was finished within the four hours originally scheduled. 
All in all, I would definitely use them again, and have already recommended them.

"My shop needed new exterior paint. E&A came out and treated me as a person with a budget, and not just some money machine. I appreciated that. They asked a lot of questions and understood what I wanted very well. It was easy to decide to go with them. When the work started it all went smooth. Everybody seemed to be happy to be working, nobody smoked or left trash anywhere. As a business owner myself I appreciate when another business has similar or same values as I have for my company. Every bit consistent in quality throughout the whole process. Shop looks great now! I’m very happy and highly recommend the folks at E&A painting."

FAQs for wallcovering or wallpaper removal projects in Seattle, WA

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.
