Remove & Reinstall

Peeling seams, dated patterns, and adhesive failure make a property feel older than it is. We remove the old wallcovering, restore the wall to a sound, smooth substrate, and reinstall — all with one crew, so nothing gets lost between trades.

Overview

Strip the old, prep the wall, reinstall like new.

Removal is where most wallcovering projects go wrong. Rushed strip-outs gouge the drywall, leave adhesive residue, and force expensive repairs. Our teams remove existing covering methodically, then skim-coat and sand the wall back to a clean, paint- or paper-ready surface.

Because the same crew that strips the wall also reinstalls it, there's no finger-pointing over surface condition. We control the entire chain — removal, repair, prep, and new install — and stand behind the finished result.

What's included

  • Removal of vinyl, paper & specialty coverings
  • Adhesive residue removal & wall washing
  • Drywall repair & full skim-coating
  • Wallcovering primer application
  • New wallcovering or paint reinstall
  • Debris haul-off & site cleanup
Why It Matters

The difference is in the details

Damage-controlled removal

Careful strip-out techniques protect the drywall so repairs stay minimal and costs stay predictable.

Full substrate restoration

Skim-coating, sanding, and priming return the wall to a smooth, stable base ready for new covering or paint.

One accountable crew

The same team handles removal through reinstall — no gaps, no blame-shifting between subcontractors.

Fast room turns

Streamlined workflow gets rooms stripped, repaired, and re-covered on a tight, occupancy-friendly schedule.

How It Works

Our process, step by step

01

Assessment & test strip

We test a section to confirm removal method and reveal the true condition of the wall beneath.

02

Removal & residue clean

Old covering stripped and all adhesive residue washed off so nothing telegraphs through later.

03

Repair & skim-coat

Gouges and seams filled, walls skim-coated and sanded smooth, then primed for the new finish.

04

Reinstall

New wallcovering hung — or walls painted — to a clean, seamless, like-new standard.

FAQ

Questions, answered

Will removing the old wallpaper damage our walls?+

Some minor surface disruption is normal, but our controlled removal methods keep it to a minimum. Any imperfections are repaired and skim-coated as part of the scope.

Can you reinstall over the same weekend you remove?+

For smaller areas, often yes. Larger scopes are phased so drying and skim-coat cure times don't compromise the new install — we'll map the timeline up front.

Do you also just remove wallpaper and leave a paintable wall?+

Yes. If you're switching from wallcovering to paint, we remove, repair, skim-coat, and prime to deliver a smooth, paint-ready surface.
