Does Your Northern Indiana Business Need to Be Repainted? 10 Telltale Signs
September 9, 2025At Matthews’ Painting Company, we’ve seen it all—peeling borders, outdated florals, and wallpaper that’s been painted over more times than you can count. While wallpaper can once bring charm to a space, it often overstays its welcome. And removing it? That’s a job most homeowners regret tackling on their own.
That’s why Matthews’ Painting is proud to offer full-service Wallpaper Removal throughout Northern Indiana, backed by experience, a fully trained crew, and the professional tools to get it done right.
Why Wallpaper Removal Isn’t a DIY Job
Wallpaper removal may sound like an easy DIY weekend project, but the reality is far different. Without the proper tools, knowledge, and techniques, removing wallpaper can quickly turn into a frustrating, messy, and time-consuming ordeal. Worse yet? You could end up damaging your drywall and needing expensive repairs just to fix what the wallpaper left behind.
If you’ve ever thought:
“Is there anyone near me who does professional wallpaper removal?”
The answer is yes—Matthews’ Painting has been removing wallpaper since 1998, and we do it with the same care and expertise we bring to every painting and carpentry job.
The Benefits of Hiring Matthews’ for Wallpaper Removal
Here’s why so many homeowners throughout Warsaw, Winona Lake, Syracuse, Leesburg, Columbia City, Goshen, and surrounding areas turn to us when it’s time to say goodbye to outdated wallpaper:
1. Protect Your Walls from Damage
DIY removal techniques often lead to torn drywall paper, gouges, and unintentional texture damage—especially if the wallpaper has been up for decades. Our trained professionals use a combination of specialized enzyme solutions, tools, and four commercial-grade steamers to carefully strip wallpaper, backing, and glue which helps provide minimal harm to your wall surface.
Once the wallpaper is removed, we seal the walls to seal in any leftover adhesive, then perform expert drywall repairs to ensure a smooth surface for paint.
2. Save Your Time and Energy
What seems like a one-day project can turn into a multi-weekend mess—especially when glue won’t budge or there are multiple layers. Why spend your nights or weekends scraping, soaking, and sweating when we can handle it for you?
Our crews follow a proven process to get the job done quickly and efficiently, giving you peace of mind and better results.
3. Full-Service Protection and Clean-Up
Before we begin, we move your furniture away from walls and cover it in plastic. We lay down absorbent drop cloths to catch excess stripping solution and protect your flooring. Once the job is done, we clean the space thoroughly—leaving your home clean, dry, and ready for its next step.
No sticky residue. No torn paper left behind. Just clean, prepped walls.
4. Get a Complete Interior Refresh
Wallpaper removal is just the first step. Afterward, we go the extra mile:
- Apply a specialty wall sealer to prevent future bubbling or peeling
- Complete drywall repairs and texture blending
- Prime and prep your walls for a professional paint finish
We’re a one-stop solution for everything from wallpaper removal to a fresh coat of modern color.
5. Exact Quotes with No Surprises
We begin every job with an in-home assessment and exact quote—so you’ll know the cost, timeline, and what to expect before we begin. Our crew walks you through the process step-by-step and handles the job with the highest level of care and professionalism.
