Getting wallpaper off a wall is far more technically demanding than most homeowners expect when planning a room refresh. Using incorrect technique — applying excessive moisture, the wrong products, or too much mechanical pressure — damages drywall facing — fractures plaster surfaces — creating damage that adds significant repair cost before any finish work can begin.
The Stripex team delivers six years of specialist knowledge in careful, wall-type-matched stripping technique. The removal team assess the surface before any removal begins — differentiating between plaster, standard drywall, and skim-coat applications — and then applying the appropriate removal method and moisture level for that specific surface. Assessing the wall before removing a single inch of paper avoids the damage that generic removal methods cause.
Stripex's steam removal system — enzymatic stripping solutions — and controlled scraping and rolling methods lift wallpaper cleanly and systematically without gouging the wall underneath. Once all paper and backing are off, all glue and adhesive remnants are cleaned away and every wall is checked for damage or compromise prior to leaving the property.
Stripex also offers post-removal skim coating as follow-on services that leave surfaces perfectly smooth and ready for your next finish. Residents of Montrose, VA getting walls ready for a new look, combining removal and skim coat work delivers a seamless, fully prepped result and ensures the wall is truly ready. Kevin Albright built the company after years of encountering the aftermath of poor wallpaper removal on renovation job sites — walls riddled with torn drywall paper, stubborn adhesive residue, and moisture damage.
Kevin saw that the work was undervalued as a skilled trade when the reality is it requires significant skill to execute without damaging the underlying wall. Kevin develops all technician training procedures and stays closely involved in any technically complex removal.
