Removing Wallpaper from wall

Wallpaper removing from walls and ceilings might be messy but quite easy. Like wallpaper installation, wallpaper removal is also an art. If you don’t apply proper techniques your wall or ceiling can be messed up. Before removing old wallpaper from walls you need to know the type of wallcovering and type of wall surface you have. Generally walls are either plaster or drywall smoothed over narrow strip. Plaster is harder & smoother than drywall. Drywall is vulnerable to water damage, avoid overwetting it.

While removing wallpaper just assume wallpaper is dry and strippable. By using a putty knife lift a corner of the paper from the wall. Hold the wallpaper with both hands & attempt to peel it back slowly. If it doesn’t peel off and only decorative surface layer peels off then stop current process, use wallpaper solvent and backing with water, then scrape it off.

This is a very basic guide. If you follow the instructions, there will be no harm. You can complete your job perfectly.
