"I am moving and needed a paint refresh before selling my home. Tom called me personally to speak with me about my needs and was at my house 2 days later for an estimate. He was exceptionally priced and worked with me for what I needed. He truly provided the service that he felt truly was needed for the home and not just to make extra money. Very professional and overall a nice person. Paint came out beautiful. Highly recommend."

"Very poor service. Asked for cash had wallpaper removed my small bathroom and it was left in a total disastrous state. There was glue still on the walls where my painting contractor had to re-clean the walls even before he?s able to paint as well as spackle where they had damaged certain areas. The person left pieces of wallpaper stuck to all the bathroom fixtures, as well as in my shower was very dissatisfied. They also offered power washing, which left horrible stains on all of my windows and damage several items on my porch. The owner did not even care to reimburse me very rude. Would not recommend at all."

"OnCall Wallpaper has done 7 separate jobs for me- each one more increasingly difficult than the next and each one executed flawlessly which is why we keep coming back!! Gerard is a true pleasure to work with, he is professional, courteous, kind and has very fair, competitive and reasonable pricing. He truly wants to make projects work for his customers. Him and his crew are true masters at their skill - we’ve had him hang high end custom murals, grass cloth, extremely intricate designs that required precise and very difficult matching, strange shaped rooms, small rooms and gigantic rooms, repair work to existing wallpaper, and rooms that needed a ton of wall prep work before they could be wallpapered. Gerard and his team have completed each with stunning precision and care, and in very timely turnarounds. Crew is extremely kind, friendly and tidy. If you are looking for a high end experience, and want your project to come out more beautiful than expected every time- look no further than OnCall for all of your wallpaper needs- no matter the difficulty or size of the project!"

"We had an outstanding experience with Wall-R Us, led by Ashley and her incredible team. From the very beginning, they stood out as the first company to respond to our inquiry, and that level of professionalism continued throughout the entire project. Ashley and her crew who were so friendly arrived each day ready to work, and it was truly a pleasure having them in our home. They were not only highly skilled, but also kind, respectful, and wonderful with our children and our very active labrador something that meant a lot to us during a multi day project. What truly impressed our family and deserves special recognition was their exceptional attention to detail. Beyond beautifully painting three rooms, they took the time to carefully repair and perfect so many small imperfections throughout our home. Every little nick, hole, and flaw in the walls, molding, and Sheetrock was seamlessly patched and finished to perfection. It’s rare to see a team take that much pride in making everything "

"For the first time in a very long time, i can honestly say every dealing with Piazza construction was professional, honest, and very well done. When they said they would be here at 8, they were here at 7:55 and ready to go at 8. They worked hard, cleaned up well, were respectful, and went above and beyond to make the basement look amazing. the price was competitive and from start to finish, we kept remarking how for the first time, we are having a wonderful experience with our new one and only contractor!! We will definitely hire them again. When we asked for suggestions or advice, they were helpful, when we noticed something we might want to change, they were flexible, and most of all, they treated our house like their own."

FAQs for wallcovering or wallpaper removal projects in Sound Beach, NY

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.
