Wallpaper Removal and Plastering in Dobbs Ferry

Stepping into a jungle of a bathroom was a bit much for these homeowners, who called on us to move out the lions and tangled vegetation on the wallpaper for a smoother, calmer aura. Painting and lightening the dark oak wainscoting and shelves was part of the project as well.

We always begin jobs with protecting floors and surrounding fixtures and furnishings. Stripping wallpaper can be messy work, and there are several products on the market to assist with loosening the paper on the wall. Evaluating the kind of wallpaper, like vinyl or vinyl-coated, grass cloth, solid sheet or other, along with the age and time on the wall, provides the information we need to use the best product and tools for the job. Once all traces of the wallpaper are gone, there is often old glue that may require another product and some serious scraping to loosen and remove. Only then can the walls be washed, sanded and primed for the paint coats.

Painting over wood is another process in discovering what kind of oil, varnish or stain has been used and how to best deal with it to prepare the surface for paint. Sanding and priming takes place in stages before any paint is applied. Our team’s expertise kicks in early in the job, and the wow factor comes to light as the paint is smoothly applied on the trim and the walls, even in tight spaces like this. The new, radiant, neutral theme in this bathroom lends a much more tranquil spirit to the space, for which these homeowners are very grateful.

After removing the wallpaper in this west side home, we cleaned off the glue residue and primed the walls. We then painted the walls with Benjamin Moore Simply White which really makes this beautiful antique sofa really pop!

Battery Park Condo Painter

Before this homeowner listed her home for sell she wanted to freshen up the place for prospective buyers. We started by removing all the wallpaper in this Downtown Manhattan condo. Once that was done we cleaned off the glue residue, primed and painted the whole place. We then refinished the flooring to really make the place sparkle. Refinishing the hardwood floor was the final step to making this apartment ready to fetch a higher price tag. With the big windows and the fresh paint the place feels bigger.
