Expert Wallpaper Removal

Removing old wallpaper is often the critical first step in any wall transformation. Whether you are preparing for new wallpaper, a fresh coat of paint, or a completely new look, proper removal is essential to achieving a smooth, professional result. DIY wallpaper removal can lead to damaged drywall, torn surfaces, and hours of frustration — our professional approach eliminates these risks.

At Wallpaper Hangers Emily, we use professional-grade steam removal equipment and specialized solutions that soften adhesive bonds without damaging the underlying surface. Our technicians carefully work through each layer, whether dealing with a single layer of modern peel-and-stick or multiple layers of vintage wallpaper that have been painted over.

We handle all types of wallpaper removal, including standard pre-pasted wallpaper, vinyl wallcoverings, fabric-backed materials, and stubborn multi-layer situations that have accumulated over decades. Our goal is always the same: a clean, smooth surface ready for whatever comes next.

Our Process

How We Remove Wallpaper

Assessment

We evaluate the wallpaper type, number of layers, adhesive condition, and underlying surface to determine the optimal removal approach.

Steam Removal

Professional steam equipment softens adhesive bonds, allowing careful removal of wallpaper without damaging drywall or plaster.

Surface Repair

Any minor damage, residual adhesive, or imperfections are repaired and smoothed to create a flawless substrate.

Preparation

Proper priming and surface preparation ensures your walls are ready for new wallpaper installation or paint.

Surface Restoration

Repair & Prep for New Installation

Wallpaper removal is only half the job. After removal, walls often need attention — from minor skim coating to address surface imperfections, to full repair of areas where old adhesive has affected the drywall paper face. Our team handles all necessary surface restoration as part of our removal service.

We apply appropriate primers based on what comes next. If you are installing new wallpaper, we use a wallpaper-specific primer that creates an ideal bonding surface and makes future removal easier. If you are switching to paint, we prepare the surface with the right primer for a smooth, even finish. Either way, you receive a wall that is truly ready for its next chapter.
