Virginia's best wall paper. With over 30 years of experience I get the job right the first time. Easy up front fixed pricing $50.00 a roll, making it easy for your budget. My attention to detail will leave your walls with a lasting impression of elegance.

"Dory and her daughter are a great team! They stay pretty busy with installing and removing wall paper - so due to that, they may not be able to schedule you quickly. However, I will say it's worth the wait. I'm so happy with the repairs they did and they also do caulking. My kitchen counter was installed in 1985 and the caulk looked old. They re-did it and it looks like brand new. You won't be sorry if you hire them!"

FAQs for wallcovering or wallpaper removal projects in Virginia Beach, VA

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.
