For the love of Wallpaper......

If you ever wallpaper, please take the glue off from the previous wallpaper!

Whoever lived here before DH just took down the wallpaper & put new up, but never scrubed the walls to get the old glue off.  Now part of the walls are a mess & our poor contractor couldn't get the glue off, which of course put him behind schedule.  I should try to hunt down the old owners & make them pay for the extra labor this guy has to do!

Thankfully we're painting, so no wallpaper ever again.  But I can't wait to see how the other 2 bathrooms are like when we get to those!  Tongue Tied

  • That sucks!  I'm not going to lie though, if I was in the position to wallpaper over the leftover glue to save time and effort, I probably would...

    I don't think it's weird. I like peeling things too. What a thrill!
