Our Wallpaper Removal and Painting Services
We provide a full range of removal and painting services to accommodate different surfaces, wallpaper types, and property needs.

Residential Wallpaper Removal
Your home deserves clean walls that reflect your vision. We carefully remove wallpaper in living rooms, bedrooms, hallways, and more—without damaging your drywall or plaster. If the wallpaper has been painted over, we take extra steps by scoring the surface and using steam or specialized removers to break through the paint and loosen the adhesive. Our team adapts to textured or layered materials, using safe and effective methods that protect delicate surfaces and minimize mess. After removal, we inspect and prep the walls for painting, and we’re happy to advise you on paint options that match your updated style.

Commercial Wallpaper Removal
Businesses in Boise rely on us to refresh office spaces, lobbies, and retail areas. We schedule projects at times that won’t disrupt your business operations. Our crew is equipped to handle large walls, high ceilings, and specialty finishes. If you have an outdated wallpaper design or bubbling seams, we remove it efficiently so your walls are ready for repainting or new installations.

Multi-Layered or Old Wallpaper
Removing multiple layers of wallpaper that were installed decades ago requires experience. These walls often hide glue residue, paint mistakes, or uneven surface damage. We assess each section before removal to avoid tearing or gouging the surface. In tough cases, we use steam or specialty solutions to loosen the adhesive. This provides a smooth removal process and a cleaner wall.
Preparation for Painting or Reapplication
After the wallpaper is stripped, your walls may need more than just a coat of paint. Our team thoroughly cleans off any leftover adhesive, patches holes, and sands the surface to smooth out imperfections. If needed, we apply a high-quality primer to seal the wall and ensure the new paint adheres evenly. This extra care helps create a flawless finish that lasts.
Wall Painting and Repair After Removal
After prepping the walls, we use high-quality primers and paint to give your walls a fresh, modern look that lasts a long time. If you want a neutral palette or bold colors, our team can make sure the final result matches your expectations.
