Customers say: Quick response

"I couldn't be more pleased. My aluminum-sided house looks fantastic. I wish I had before and after photos to upload. Terry's son spent about 4 hours hand painting my front door in the 3 color scheme I wanted. I can't comment on price because I only got the one quote. My neighbor went to HS with his sisters and I had a reference from another neighbor."

"These painters are simply the best! Promptly responded anytime I contacted them. Very professional, top quality work. I have hired them for entire interior house painting, fair pricing with all jobs. They do beautiful work - most recently, the taping and mudding of sheetrock and painting in my home. Look no further - these are the painters who get the job done in a very timely manner? and the result is perfect. I wish I could give them more than 5 stars! "

"Matthew and his crew did a great job. They were fast and efficient. I got quotes from three Painters, they came in at the lowest price. I chose different colors for all the rooms, had them wallpaper another. I'll need a few touch ups after other contractors came in for work, and Matthew said that he'd come back no problem. I'd recommend him"

FAQs for wallcovering or wallpaper removal projects in Wallingford, CT

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.
