Wallpaper & Wall Decoration
Safe stripping of old wallpaper and adhesive residue, leaving walls clean and ready for repainting or new coverings.
Overview
Old wallpaper that is peeling, stained or simply out of date needs to come off cleanly before anything new goes up. WrapRevive removes wallpaper from Dubai homes and commercial spaces with attention to the wall underneath, so the surface is ready for paint or a fresh covering.
Removal is rarely as simple as pulling a corner. Some papers peel away in full sheets, while others split and leave a backing layer that has to be softened and lifted. Vinyl-coated and heavily textured papers behave differently from standard paper, and the adhesive used originally changes how much residue stays behind. We test a small area first to choose the gentlest effective method.
The aim is to protect the wall. Gypsum board and thin plaster can be damaged by too much water or aggressive scraping, so moisture and tools are controlled carefully. Once the paper and adhesive are off, the wall is wiped down and checked for marks, gouges or hairline cracks. Any repair or sanding needed before repainting is discussed and quoted separately.
Removal makes sense at move-out, before a repaint, or when paper is lifting at joins. It is not always the best option: if the existing paper is firmly bonded and in good condition, a suitable liner or overpainting may be a simpler route. We will give an honest view during the site visit, because the condition of the wall decides what is sensible.
Final scope is confirmed in your written quotation after assessment.
Service Process
We discuss the room, lighting and style, and review wallpaper or panel options.
Walls are measured and patterns planned so joins and repeats fall in the right place.
Existing finishes are removed where needed, cracks filled and surfaces primed.
Paper, panels or graphics are installed, trimmed and matched around sockets and openings.
Seams, edges and alignment are inspected and the area is cleaned before handover.

FAQ

Usually the wall needs cleaning, drying and light preparation first. Any filling or priming is confirmed during assessment so the paint finish is even.
It depends on the type of paper, the number of layers and the wall condition. We give a realistic estimate after seeing the room rather than guessing in advance.
That depends on your tenancy agreement and landlord. It is worth checking before you start, and we can describe the work involved so you can discuss it with them.
Multiple layers take more time and care, and the underlying surface may be more fragile. We assess this on site and reflect it in the quotation.
