Professional Wallpaper Removal Service in Austin, TX
Trusted wall prep and painting from Medrano's PaintingOld wallpaper can peel at the seams, bubble up, and make a room feel dated and tired. If you have been searching for a wallpaper removal service near me, you want a crew that strips the paper without tearing up your walls.

Why Our Wallpaper Removal Stands Out
Removing wallpaper looks simple, but rushing it can gouge drywall and leave glue behind. Our team works slowly and uses the right method for your wall type, whether it is drywall or older plaster. As professional wallpaper removal contractors, we score, soak, and peel so the surface stays smooth. Then we wash away the glue and check every inch before any paint touches the wall.
What Our Wallpaper Removal Covers
Our wallpaper removal services handle the full job from start to finish, so you are not left with a half-done wall:
- Removal of wallpaper from drywall and plaster walls
- Old wallpaper removal in any room, including kitchens and baths
- Wallpaper glue residue removal and full wall cleaning
- Wall patching and smoothing where the paper pulled the surface
- Wallpaper removal and painting as one combined project
- Cleanup and haul-away of all old paper and debris
After the paper is gone, many clients add interior painting for a fresh look, and if removal exposes damage we handle the drywall repair too.
Wallpaper Removal Built for Austin Homes
Many Austin homes were built decades ago and still have wallpaper glued to plaster walls. The local humidity and warm weather can loosen old paste, which leads to peeling and bubbling over time. When you look for wallpaper removal in Austin, you want a crew that knows how these older walls react. We adjust our method to the wall and the climate so the surface comes out clean.
Signs It Is Time to Remove Your Wallpaper
Wallpaper does not last forever, and a few common signs mean it is time to call us:
- Peeling wallpaper that lifts at the seams or corners
- Bubbling wallpaper that puffs out in spots across the wall
- Walls with old wallpaper that looks dated or stained
- Wallpaper coming off walls or falling off on its own
- Leftover glue residue from a past removal job

Wallpaper Removal FAQs
The cost of wallpaper removal depends on a few things, like the number of rooms, the type of wall behind the paper, and how much glue is left to clean. Older paper that is layered or glued to plaster takes more time than a single fresh layer. Because every home is different, we give you a free, no-obligation quote after we see the walls in person. That way you know the price before any work starts.
Done right, wallpaper removal should not damage your walls. Problems happen when paper is yanked off dry, which can tear drywall paper or chip plaster. Our crew scores and soaks the wallpaper first so it lifts cleanly. In older Austin homes with plaster, we work slowly and watch for soft spots. If any small damage shows up, we patch and smooth it so the wall is ready for paint.
For most homeowners, yes. Peeling, bubbling, or dated wallpaper makes a room feel old and can hide wall issues underneath. Stripping it gives you a clean, smooth surface and a fresh start, which is great if you plan to paint. Removing it the right way also prevents the glue and torn edges that come from painting straight over old paper. We help Austin clients decide what makes sense for their home during the free quote.
Timing depends on the size of the room and how the paper was put up. A single layer on drywall can come off fairly fast, while layered paper or paper glued to old plaster takes longer. Heavy glue residue also adds time, since we clean it fully before painting. After we look at your walls, we give you a clear timeline along with your quote so you know what to expect from start to finish.
Yes, we do. As professional wallpaper removal contractors, we strip the old paper, clean the glue, and prep the walls before we paint. Removing the paper first is the right way to get a smooth, lasting finish, since painting over wallpaper often leaves bumps and peeling seams. Many Austin clients book wallpaper removal and painting together as one project, so the room is done from bare wall to fresh color all at once.
You can, but we usually do not recommend it. Paint can make seams and bubbles stand out, and the moisture in paint can loosen the glue, which leads to peeling later. Removing the wallpaper first gives you a smooth, clean surface that holds paint well for years. If you are unsure, we can check your walls during the free quote and tell you the best path for your home here in Austin.
