Every estimate is an on-site conversation about your surfaces and your goals. Here are the details worth covering so the work is planned for your project:
- Whether the wall has existing wallpaper to remove first
- Trim, casing, and ceiling transitions

Project suitability, existing coatings, and the preparation your surfaces need are assessed in person during the estimate.
