Wallpaper removal in a century-old Toronto home is a different job than in a 2015 build. Plaster walls under old paper can gouge easily if you rush it; drywall under newer paper has its own glue and paper-backing issues.
Multi-layer paper in older homes
Some Toronto homes have two or three generations of wallpaper stacked up — each layer needs to be identified and removed without damaging the plaster beneath.
Glued vinyl paper on drywall
Common in newer builds, vinyl-backed paper can pull the drywall paper face off if removed carelessly. We use the right steaming and scoring technique to avoid that.
Accent wall installations
A popular request in GTA renovations right now — one feature wall done cleanly rather than papering a whole room.
Humidity-prone rooms
Bathrooms and basements need moisture-resistant adhesive and paper choices given our humid summers.
DIY wallpaper removal that tears up the wall
We get called in often after a DIY wallpaper removal attempt has gouged plaster or peeled the paper face off drywall, leaving a rough surface that shows through any paint applied afterward. Rushed steaming or dry-scraping is the usual cause.
Removed carefully, walls repaired properly after
We test a small section first, use the right combination of steam and scoring for the paper and wall type, and patch and prime the wall afterward so it's ready for paint or new paper. For installation, we measure and pattern-match carefully so seams disappear.

Common questions
Will removing wallpaper damage my plaster walls?
It can if rushed, which is why we test a section first and use steaming and scoring suited to the wall condition rather than dry-scraping.
Do you install wallpaper as well as remove it?
Yes, both — including pattern-matched installs for accent walls or full rooms.
Do you patch the wall after removing old wallpaper?
Yes, patching and priming afterward is included so the wall is ready for paint or new paper.
Can you remove multiple layers of old wallpaper?
Yes, older Toronto homes often have several layers stacked up, and we work through them carefully layer by layer.
Is wallpaper a good choice for a Toronto bathroom?
With the right moisture-resistant paper and adhesive, yes, though we'll talk through the options given the room's humidity level.
