Why Moolap Residents Trust Our Wallpaper Removal Services

  1. 1

    Local Knowledge, Local Results

    Moolap homes have character—coastal breezes, quirky corners, and the occasional 1970s wallpaper surprise. We know how to handle all of it. Our team understands the conditions that affect wall surfaces in this area, including humidity and salt exposure. That means we adapt our techniques to protect your wall integrity while removing even the most stubborn wallpaper.

  2. 2

    No Damage, No Drama

    We don’t just rip and strip. Each job starts with an assessment of the wallpaper type (vinyl, foil, or fabric-backed, anyone?) and the surface underneath. Using eco-friendly solutions and gentle steamers, we remove layers cleanly, leaving your walls primed for their next chapter—whether that’s paint, plaster, or a slick new design.

  3. 3

    Flexible Scheduling, Minimal Fuss

    Life’s busy. That’s why we offer flexible service hours—including evenings and weekends—to fit around your lifestyle. Whether you're preparing a property for sale, mid-renovation, or just tired of staring at that floral pattern from 1986 (we've all been there), we get it done quickly, cleanly, and on your schedule.

How We Remove Wallpaper in Moolap—Step by Step

  • Step 1 Initial Consultation & Surface Inspection

    We start with a walk-through of your Moolap property—whether it’s a rented unit near Coppards Road or a heritage home on Clifton Avenue. We assess the wallpaper type, wall condition, and any tricky spots (corners, moulding, previous paint layers). You’ll get an honest, obligation-free quote.
  • Step 2 Protect Surroundings & Prep Area

    Furniture? Covered. Floors? Sealed. We take care to protect your space using drop sheets, plastic sheeting, and painter’s tape. Vents and switches are masked to prevent dust and moisture intrusion. We treat your home like our own—respectfully and cleanly.
  • Step 3 Score & Soften the Wallpaper

    Using specialist scoring tools, we create micro-perforations in the wallpaper to allow moisture penetration. Then, we apply a low-VOC solution or steam (depending on the type) to loosen adhesive without harming the wall underneath. Patience is key—rushing this step can mean damage. We don’t rush.
  • Step 4 Peel, Strip, and Clean

    Here’s where the magic happens. We gently strip the wallpaper in sheets using putty knives and scrapers designed not to gouge. Any stubborn glue is removed with a damp sponge and eco-friendly remover. (Yes, it’s oddly satisfying to watch.)
  • Step 5 Surface Repair & Final Prep

    Once the wallpaper’s gone, we inspect the surface for dings, holes, or leftover glue. We patch, sand, and prime as needed to leave your walls paint-ready. If you’re moving straight into repainting, our team can handle that too—seamlessly.
  • Step 6 Cleanup & Client Walkthrough

    We clean up thoroughly—no scraps left behind, no residue, and definitely no dust. Then we walk you through the finished space to ensure you’re 100% satisfied. Any touch-ups? We do them then and there. Simple. Honest. Done right.
