The most common reason for wallpaper removal is often to change the aesthetic design of a room, but there are other reasons that homeowners consider removal. Wallpaper can be difficult to maintain and repair and can bring down the value of a home when looking to sell. Wallpaper also loses its structural integrity and fades over time. It’s also notoriously messy and time consuming to remove, so some homeowners delay the process altogether, or begin and find that they run into a series of frustrating problems. Hiring a professional company like Painter1 of Indianapolis (Carmel / Fishers) who knows how to remove wallpaper ensures that the entire process is done right the first time, and without long-term damage to your walls.
Painter1 of Indianapolis (Carmel / Fishers) are experts in more than just residential painting. We’re experts in taking care of interiors and exterior walls, including wallpaper removal in Carmel / Fishers.
What Is The Process For Wallpaper Removal in Carmel / Fishers?
Searching for “how to remove wallpaper?” It sounds simpler than it is. The process for removing wallpaper changes depending on several variables, including the type of walls in your home, how the paper was originally installed, how long it has been on the wall, and the type of wallpaper itself.
It’s for these reasons that most homeowners prefer to have wallpaper removed professionally. Not only does it cut down on the time it takes, but professionals know how to remove the paper without causing damage to your walls. In general, you can expect the following steps for wallpaper removal with Painter1 of Indianapolis (Carmel / Fishers):
- First, it is important for us to protect your existing floors and furnishings, as well as electrical outlets. You can expect that we’ll either tape off or temporarily remove the outlet plates and cover flooring and nearby furniture with tarps so that they are not damaged or harmed as we work.
- Next, we remove as much of the wallpaper as we can by prying it away from the wall using a putty knife or scraper. Any wallpaper that remains on the walls will be scored using a special tool. Our experts ensure that the scoring is done only to help make the paper receptive to the hot water solution, as it is important not to scrape so hard that the wall beneath the paper is damaged.
- To remove any remaining patches of wallpaper, it is important that we use the right solution to soften the remaining adhesive. For instance, if you intend to re-paper your walls, some solutions will make it difficult or impossible for glue to stick to a surface again. In general, solutions are made using a combination of either white vinegar and hot water or fabric softener and hot water. This solution is then sprayed onto the remaining wallpaper to soak before it can be scraped away. Prior to beginning this step, we will likely need to turn off power to the outlets in the room. This step is repeated until there is no sign of wallpaper or adhesive remaining on the wall.
- Afterward, the wall is cleaned and any damage is repaired, leaving your walls fresh, clean, and ready for the next decorative step--generally an oil-based primer prior to a fresh coat of paint.

After we moved into a new house, Painter1 painted the walls in all of our upstairs bedrooms and bathrooms, and we were thrilled with the work they did and the results. The quality of the painting is excellent, and they did a fantastic job of repairing some 45-degree angle drywall seams that had begun buckling, as well as multiple corners where the previous owners' dog had done severe damage to the walls. You would never know any of those problems had existed. They were extremely friendly, responsive, helpful, and amazingly quick. They finished 4 bedrooms and 3 full bathrooms in only two days. We would absolutely hire them again, and we intend to do so in the very near future to paint other areas of our home. Highly recommended!— Alison Bates

My project was a 2-story, 2.5 car carriage house built ~7 years ago and initially painted immediately after construction. I received 4 quotes for the two-color paint project and Painter1 was competitive. In addition to the painting crew I interacted with 3 others at Painter1, all were pleasant experiences. I received honest, straight-forward, uncomplicated, up-front communications. NO surprises. Rigo and his team were polite, engaging, responsive and industrious. They were detail oriented and did top quality work, light years better than the initial paint job. They do not skimp on materials; using top quality paint, caulk, etc. I do not hesitate to recommend Rigo/Painter1 and should/when the need ever arise would only want to use them.— Steven Westby

Painter 1 painted our house in May and did a fabulous job. They were great about meeting our timeline as we wanted the house painted by our son's graduation party. They did a great job and were very thorough. After getting three quotes, I can also say they are very competitively priced. I love the fact that it is a local, family-owned business as well. We had one small issue when a contractor that was used hit my neighbor's mailbox. But they took care of it immediately, no questions asked. My neighbor even commented how nice Painter 1 was about it all.— Deanna Ratz

It was a big decision to choose a paint company and I was anxious when we signed the contract but they absolutely blew me away with how fast, professional, friendly and how beautifully it turned out. Through the process I had several questions so I sent texts to the guys I had met and got answers and help quickly. The crew showed up for an 0800 start at 0759, super friendly and so fast. I could not believe how quickly they had everything taped off, painted and cleaned up. The next morning they came out and we walked the entire area (no rush from any one). We asked for just a few tiny things to be touched up (we had 5 sets of eyes on it and found very very little) they even made a couple of touch ups to our old wood that made it look like knicks and gouges were straight lines against our white trim. I was impressed and it was offered by the crew, we just thought of it as 40 year Cedar that was banged up but they took an extra minute or two to create an illusion that looked awesome. Our home is all brick on bottom, brand new painted porch on the floor, new support posts. Not a drop of paint touched anything it shouldn’t. So glad we chose them! Highly recommended. ~Trish— Kevin LaRussa

They were able to rearrange their schedule to fit me using since the people that were replacing my gutters changed the date! Can't say enough how well they worked with me! They cleaned up after themselves and even showed me some things that need fixed that I wouldn't have seen on my own. Very polite! Absolutely recommend!—
