Wallpaper Removal

Wallpaper removal is a hard, dirty job.

While wallpaper can be very attractive, it usually has a life span consistent with design trends. Once it has reached that point it has to come off for future finishes.

There is no easy way to remove wallpaper and while many homeowners try to accomplish this on their own, they find that they grossly underestimate how much time is required just to prepare the room.

Your floors, painted surfaces, windows, and trim all need to be protected first – which can easily overwhelm you before the process even starts.

Which messy method do you want to try?

There are many ways to remove wall coverings such as chemicals, steamers, scraping, heat, and water just to mention a few. Painstaking and frustrating at best for the amateur.

Then once you get started you‘ll often uncover additional layers of different papers added through the years, usually applied on substrates not properly given release coatings to help in the removal.

This usually leads up to “let’s just get the darn paper off the wall or ceilings any way we can” – usually creating additional damage which needs to be repaired before any other finish, either paint or paper, can be applied.

Luckily, you don’t have to go at it alone!

What Our Customers Have to Say

CH painting hands down is the best painting company I’ve ever hired. That’s to say a lot because I’ve used quite a few painting companies and none comes close in professionalism and workmanship. My house was quite a challenge due to all the wall paper that had scoured the drywall during the removal and on top of that, the spackling work was poorly done by others. In conclusion, they’re pleasant to work with and I’m very pleased with the job. I plan to have them return to paint the foyer and the kitchen.

Huy Lerecommends Cherry Hill Painting

I had a couple of rooms in my house that required wall/ceiling drywall repair + wallpaper removal + painting. I called Cherry Hill Paining and got an estimate within a day. Right about that time, the COVID situation took a turn for the worse and we needed to put the job on hold for about 6-8 weeks. I called back when I was ready to proceed and they remembered the job details immediately and honored their original pricing, even dropping off paint swatches so that we didn't have to go to a store to pick colors.

Additionally, I should mention that we took down wall mirrors after the estimate but prior to the painting and discovered some hidden wall paper, and they did not charge us more to address this even though I said I would understand additional charges.

The job took about 3 days from start to finish, which is what they told us to expect and the crew was professional and courteous the whole way through. I couldn't be happier with the results. The repaired areas look brand new and I can't find a single blemish in the painting.

This was my second experience with Doug & Cherry Hill painters. They painted my entire house 3 years ago, including a fabulous metallic feature wall. Recently, I had water damage, and they replaced drywall, and had to redo the entire room including the metallic wall. A great team of employees. Steve was great. They are the best. Very professional, meticulous, and courteous. I would highly recommend, and would give 6 stars if I could!
