The Challenge

This historic 1800s home had decades of wallpaper layered over original plaster walls. Removing it all would have been labor-intensive and cost-prohibitive for the budget.

Our Solution

We installed new drywall directly over the existing walls using tear-away beads for crisp edges, achieving a fresh, modern finish without the time and expense of wallpaper and plaster removal.

The Result

A beautifully smooth, modern finish that respects the budget while completely transforming the interior aesthetic of this century home.
