Wallpaper Removal
Paper and adhesive taken off the wall completely, with your floors, furniture and outlets protected, so the next coat of paint or the next roll of paper starts on a clean surface.
Old paper does not come off in one pull
Wallpaper that has been up for years rarely lifts cleanly. The sheets tear into strips, the backing stays stuck to the wall, and the adhesive underneath goes tacky again the moment anything damp touches it. A scraper and a free weekend often end with gouged drywall and a wall that still is not ready for paint.
The other thing homeowners notice is the risk around the room. Water and steam run into outlets and switch plates, and wet paper lands on floors, trim and furniture. And a bare wall that still carries a film of old glue will show it through whatever color goes on next.

How Dana's crew takes a room back to bare wall
Before any paper is touched, All Interior Painting protects the floors, furniture, trim and outlets, and shuts off power around the electrical switches and outlets when necessary. That groundwork comes first, in every Beaver County home they work in.
Then the paper is scored or perforated so the removal goes faster and the sheets come away with less fight. The job finishes with complete removal of all wallpaper and adhesive, not just the printed face of the paper, because leftover glue is exactly what shows through paint later.
Dana's estimate is free and itemized, so the wallpaper work is priced on its own line before you decide anything about paint. Questions before that? Call (412) 205-8263.
After the paper: paint it, or paper it again
Once the wall is bare, interior painting is the natural next step, and it can sit on the same estimate. Dana and her team are registered interior designers with Sherwin-Williams, and the paint is Sherwin-Williams, supplied by the crew so the finish is uniform across the room.
If you miss pattern altogether, they can also install accent wallpaper to select rooms. The powder room at the top of this page is that idea: navy floral paper, a deep navy door, and white fixtures left alone.
They take care of your home like it's their own where they don't leave a mess or splattered paint. (Stephanie G)
