Although having vast experience, normally proceeding with painting, we do not make a point to do this solely.

This week removed wallpaper for a customer on walls and ceiling in kitchen. Explained 9 times out of 10, if original wallpaper, probably no texture behind it, and this is where we can be of added service. Removed wallpaper, only to find slick walls, and wished to leave it, however the rest of the home had knock-down texture. Know it was not a price issue, as never gave person $ for texture. Undecided

Can't teach everyone all the time what is best. Tongue

I believe that there is a solvent used in removing wallpapers. Am I right Cal? Maybe you should just gave the owner some instructions on how to remove wallpapers so that the owner will be the one to remove them.

That's what I would do. Or simply tell them I don't offer the service. I hate wallpaper. If your not a professional paper stripper then your going to lose your butt 9 times out of 10... lol...
