Tired Of Your Wallpaper But Worried About Damaging Your Walls

Living with wallpaper you do not like can be discouraging, especially if you have tried removing a small section and discovered how stubborn it can be. You might be dealing with multiple layers, seams that are pulling away, or patterns that no longer fit your style. In older Dane County homes, you may also have plaster walls that you want to protect, which makes you even more cautious about how to proceed.

DIY wallpaper removal often looks simple in online tutorials, but in real rooms it can lead to torn paper on drywall, gouges in plaster, and patches of adhesive that refuse to come off. Those issues can make painting more difficult and can add time and cost to repairs later. We work to prevent those problems by taking the time to understand what is on your walls before we start and by choosing techniques that are suited to your specific surfaces.

When you invite our team into your home or business, you can expect a thoughtful approach rather than a rushed, one-size-fits-all process. We assess the condition of your walls, discuss the look you want to achieve, and explain how we plan to remove the wallpaper and prepare the space. Our goal is to give you a clear picture of what to expect so you can move forward with confidence.

When you decide to remove wallpaper, you are really planning a complete transformation of your space. You need a team that can manage every stage, from careful removal to final coats of paint, and keep the project organized along the way. At 360° Painting of Madison & Oshkosh, we coordinate the full process so you do not have to juggle multiple trades or schedules.

Our project managers start by building a customized plan for your walls that reflects your priorities and your budget. That plan covers removal methods, any necessary surface preparation within our scope, and the painting products to be used after the wallpaper is removed. Throughout the project, your project manager remains your point of contact, providing updates and helping to keep the work on track.

Quality of materials makes a real difference in how your updated walls look and how long they last. We use premium paints from brands such as Sherwin-Williams, PPG Paints, and Benjamin Moore when we repaint after wallpaper removal. When used with proper priming and prep, these products deliver a smooth, consistent finish that enhances the value and appearance of your property.

We also back our work with a 2 year paint warranty and a 6 month carpentry warranty, which gives you added peace of mind. If any questions arise once the project is complete, you know where to turn. Along with these warranties, we offer free, no obligation estimates and a customer-first approach, so you can explore your options without pressure and know that we are listening to what matters most to you.

Our Step-by-Step Wallpaper Removal & Painting Process

A clear process can make your wallpaper removal project feel manageable instead of overwhelming. We follow a consistent series of steps that we adapt to fit each home or business, which helps protect your walls and your schedule.

Assessment & Planning

It begins with an in person visit, where a member of our team looks closely at your wallpaper and the underlying surfaces. We check for multiple layers, test how securely the paper is bonded, and look at nearby trim, ceilings, and floors. During this visit, we listen to your goals, discuss color ideas for repainting, and review any timing constraints you might have.

Once you approve the written proposal, we schedule your project and arrive on day one ready to protect your space. Our crews move or cover furniture as needed, protect floors with appropriate coverings, and shield adjacent areas that are not being updated. We take these steps before any wallpaper is touched, because preventing damage and mess is just as important as the removal itself.

Wallpaper Removal & Surface Preparation

After the room is prepared, we test a small area to confirm the best removal method. Depending on the type of wallpaper and how it was installed, we may use a combination of scoring, solution application, and gentle scraping to loosen the material. Our team works carefully to separate the paper from the wall without excessive force, which helps reduce the risk of tearing the surface underneath.

When the wallpaper is down, we address the adhesive that remains on the walls. Leaving residue behind can cause problems for primer and paint later, so we take time to clean and rinse as appropriate. Once the surface is clean and dry, we inspect for minor imperfections, such as small nicks or uneven areas, and handle repairs that fit within the agreed scope.

Priming, Painting & Final Walkthrough

With the walls prepped, we apply primer suited to the surface and planned finish, then complete the painting using premium paints in your chosen colors. Throughout the project we maintain daily cleanup routines, remove debris, and keep paths clear whenever possible. Before we call the project complete, your project manager reviews the space with you, answers questions, and confirms that the results meet your expectations.

How We Protect Your Home Or Business During Wallpaper Removal

Wallpaper removal and repainting should not mean your entire routine is turned upside down. We plan our work so that your home or business stays as functional as possible while we are on site, and we treat your property with the level of care we would want in our own spaces.

Protecting Surfaces & Belongings

Before work begins, we talk with you about how you use the rooms involved, where you need clear access, and any specific concerns you have about furnishings or equipment. Our crews then cover floors, protect furniture that remains in the room, and tape off trim and fixtures as appropriate. We pay attention to entry points and common paths and work to keep those areas safe and orderly.

Managing Disruption & Cleanup

For commercial spaces in the county, we can often schedule portions of the work outside your peak business hours, depending on your needs and local building guidelines. In homes, we are mindful of family routines and work to keep noise and disruption predictable. In both settings, our teams clean up at the end of each workday, remove trash and debris, and leave tools organized so you are not navigating around clutter.

Good communication is an important part of protecting your space. If we anticipate particularly intensive parts of the removal process, we let you know ahead of time so you can plan. If we uncover conditions that require adjustment to the plan, such as unexpected wall damage under the wallpaper, we take time to explain what we see and what your options are before moving forward.

Common Wallpaper Problems We Solve

Every property has its own history, and the wallpaper on your walls often reflects that. Over time, even carefully installed wallpaper can start to show signs that it is ready to be removed. Recognizing these issues can help you decide when it is time to bring in a professional team.

Signs Your Wallpaper Needs To Be Removed

You may notice seams that are separating, bubbles that will not smooth out, or sections that feel loose when you touch them. In some rooms, stains from moisture, cooking, or smoke can seep into the paper, making it look worn even if it is still attached. In other cases, especially in older homes, several layers of wallpaper may have been applied on top of each other, which increases the complexity of removal.

How We Address Underlying Issues

When we assess your walls, we look for all of these conditions and more. Multiple layers, different adhesives, and previous paint beneath the paper can all influence how we approach removal. Our goal is to choose techniques that address the problems you see while helping to protect the surface underneath. If we encounter issues such as underlying damage or irregularities, we discuss how those findings affect the plan and what steps are available within our services.

Wallpaper Removal For Dane County Homes & Commercial Spaces

Properties in Dane County range from historic homes with unique architectural details to newer offices and retail spaces with standard drywall. Each type of building brings its own considerations when it is time to remove wallpaper and update finishes. Our team is accustomed to working in this variety of settings and adjusting our approach accordingly.

In older neighborhoods, some homes include plaster walls or walls that have seen several rounds of decorating over the years. These walls may have multiple paint layers beneath the wallpaper or patches from prior repairs. We take these factors into account when planning removal and prep, and we communicate what we find so you understand how it may influence the work.

Commercial properties in the county often have different needs. Offices, medical suites, and retail spaces typically need to remain open or have limited downtime, and there may be building management requirements for working hours and access. We coordinate with owners or managers to plan work phases, protect shared areas, and keep the project aligned with building guidelines.

Whether we are working in a family home, a small business, or a larger commercial space, our approach is the same. We listen, plan, and execute in a way that respects both your walls and your schedule. The result is a space that feels updated and cohesive, without you having to manage the process alone.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will wallpaper removal damage my walls?

When wallpaper is removed carefully with the right methods, most walls can be brought to a smooth, paint ready condition without significant damage. The risk of issues such as torn drywall or chipped plaster rises when removal is rushed or when the wrong tools and solutions are used. Our team starts by testing a small area to understand how strongly the paper is bonded and what is underneath it, then we choose techniques that are suited to your specific walls.

If we uncover areas where the surface has been compromised by previous work or by the removal process itself, we explain what we see and outline repair options that fit within our services. Minor imperfections can often be addressed through patching, sanding, and proper priming. For more serious underlying issues, we discuss the best path forward so you can make an informed decision before we proceed.

How long does a typical wallpaper removal project take?

The length of a wallpaper removal project depends on several factors, including the number of rooms, the size of the walls, how many layers of wallpaper are present, and the condition of the underlying surfaces. A single, average sized room with one layer of wallpaper will generally be completed more quickly than multiple large rooms with several layers or extensive adhesive.

During your free estimate, we look at each area in person and ask questions about how you use the space. This allows us to provide a projected timeline tailored to your project. Your project manager will review this timeline with you before work begins and will update you if any conditions discovered during removal affect the schedule.

Can I stay in my home or keep my business open during the work?

Many clients remain in their homes while we remove wallpaper and paint, and many businesses stay open in at least part of their space during the project. The feasibility of this depends on your property's layout, the areas being updated, and any applicable building rules. We discuss these details during planning so we can stage the work in a way that supports your routines as much as possible.

For residential projects, we typically focus on a set of rooms at a time and maintain clear paths for everyday activities. In commercial settings, we may schedule work for off hours or section off certain areas to limit disruption for staff and customers. Regardless of the setting, our crews clean up at the end of each day so the space feels orderly, even while the project is in progress.

Do you paint after removing the wallpaper?

Yes, we offer painting services after wallpaper removal so you can complete your transformation with one coordinated team. Once the wallpaper and adhesive are removed and the walls are prepared, we apply primer and finish coats in the colors you select. Using one team for both steps helps ensure that surface preparation and painting are aligned and that the final finish is smooth and consistent.

We use premium paints from brands such as Sherwin Williams, PPG Paints, and Benjamin Moore, chosen to suit the rooms and surfaces involved. Your project manager can discuss sheen options and product choices with you during planning so the end result aligns with your vision and the way the space is used.

How much does professional wallpaper removal cost?

The cost of professional wallpaper removal varies based on room size, the number of walls, the type and number of wallpaper layers, and the condition of the underlying surfaces. Additional factors can include whether painting is included, the height of ceilings, and any special access considerations in your home or business. Because of these variables, the most accurate way to understand pricing is through an in person estimate.

We provide free, no obligation estimates where we inspect the space, discuss your goals, and prepare a written proposal that outlines the scope of work. This proposal helps you see what is included and how the investment aligns with your budget before you decide to move forward. Our goal is to be clear and transparent so there are fewer surprises as the project progresses.

What should I do to prepare before your team arrives?

There are a few simple steps you can take to help the project start smoothly. We usually ask that you remove small personal items, artwork, and fragile decor from the walls and nearby surfaces in the rooms we will be working in. This allows our team to focus on protecting larger furniture and setting up coverings without needing to handle your personal belongings.

Beyond that, we take care of moving or covering most larger items as needed, and we protect floors and adjacent areas. During the estimate and scheduling process, we review any preparation details specific to your home or business so you know exactly what to expect and what we will handle for you.

What kind of warranty do you offer on your work?

We stand behind our services with a 2 year paint warranty and a 6 month carpentry warranty. These warranties are designed to give you added confidence in the durability of the finishes we apply after wallpaper removal and in the light carpentry work we complete as part of your project. During the estimate or planning phase, we can walk through what these warranties cover and how they apply to your specific job.

Our goal is for you to feel supported not only while the crews are on site, but also after the project is complete. If you have questions once you have lived with the updated space for a while, you can reach back out to us and we will review your concerns in the context of the warranties we provide.
