Heavy yellow patterned wallpaper dated this bathroom by a few decades. The homeowners wanted a clean, modern finish without a remodel.
What we did
- Wallpaper removed and the adhesive residue washed off. Any paste left behind will show through paint as a blotchy sheen, so this step is not optional.
- Walls skim-coated where the paper had damaged the drywall, then sanded smooth and primed.
- Two coats of a warm neutral with the vanity area and trim cut in cleanly.
The result
A bathroom that feels current and calm, with nothing to distract from the fixtures. Wallpaper removal is one of our most requested jobs because homeowners try it themselves first and discover how much drywall repair comes after the paper is down.
