Frequently Asked Questions

How do you remove stubborn wallpaper in Calgary?

We score the outer layer, apply specialized non-toxic enzyme solutions or warm steam to dissolve starch adhesive, and carefully strip the backing using flexible drywall knives.

Can you paint directly over old wallpaper?

No! Moisture in paint dissolves underlying starch glue, causing the paper to bubble, wrinkle, or lift off the wall over time. Total removal ensures a lasting finish.

How do you prepare walls after wallpaper is stripped?

We scrub off residual paste, apply a stain-blocking shellac primer, skim-coat drywall imperfections, and perform dustless sanding before painting.
