How Expert Wallpaper Installation & Removal
Saves You Time & Money In Brookfield, WI

From Daunting To Dazzling, Colorwheel Specialists
Make Any Wallpaper Project Go Much Smoother


In general, wallpaper installation and removal in Brookfield or Milwaukee is often daunting for homeowners. But why? Well, it has to do with the typical age of homes around here โ€“ but the process can be MUCH smoother.

Colorwheel specialists are standing by to help with your wallpaper needs, whether weโ€™re removing old wallpaper to give your home a neutral look before putting it on the market or adding a personalized twist to your home with unique wallpaper.

Hereโ€™s the gist of the matter:

  • As easy as the home vloggers make it look, wallpaper installation and removal is time-consuming, meticulous work with many steps that leave no room for error โ€“ especially if your wallpaper has patterns.
  • Mistakes can be costly and result in tedious removal and more money spent replacing materials. Itโ€™s just not as easy as scraping the paper off the wall!
  • Colorwheel technicians use hot water, DIF solutions, and proper wallpaper steamers to remove wallpaper. We seldom use scoring tools since the risk of damaging drywall is too high.

Bottom Line: Our reliable, detailed workmanship saves time, effort, and money. Letโ€™s walk through five things to consider as you decide what to do with your wallpaper project.


5 Things To Consider When It Comes To Wallpaper

1: Wallpaper Professionals Save You Time

The prospect of embarking on your DIY wallpaper installation can be exciting at first. But after so many hours spent cutting, measuring, and pasting, you can quickly feel burned out before completing a fraction of your project (assuming no removal is involved).

And once you start, itโ€™s tough to stop โ€“ unless you want to look at ugly, half-finished walls for the foreseeable future.

Meanwhile, Colorwheel professionals are efficient thanks to a mix of experience and specialized knowledge. This translates into no wasted time redoing measurements or figuring out where you went wrong when mistakes inevitably arise. We save time and stress, but thatโ€™s not all.

2: Wallpaper Specialists Save You Money

When you start a DIY wallpaper job, there are plenty of costs you may forget to factor in. While everyone plans on and budgets the wallpaper, equipment costs can quickly add up and eclipse the price of hiring a professional team.

Do you really want to buy a wallpaper table?

Do you want to try and do this on YOUR table?

Working with professionals with professional-grade product knowledge ensures you donโ€™t have to dedicate so much time and money to the job. We charge an hourly rate for our wallpaper installation (and removal) services and give you a precise quote/estimate beforehand. This allows you to budget accordingly.

3: Colorwheel Experts Ensure Quality Workmanship

Chances are, if youโ€™re hanging wallpaper in your Brookfield home, youโ€™re not looking to change it anytime soon. If you make a mistake and the wallpaper is crooked or bubbles, youโ€™ll be stuck looking at the error for years to come.

The same applies when removing wallpaper. Wallpaper removal isnโ€™t as simple as many DIY videos make it look. Scoring tools can damage your walls by taking chunks out of your drywall, leaving you with a damaged, uneven surface to paint. Not a great scenario!

Our team guarantees quality, so if youโ€™re unsatisfied with their work, theyโ€™ll fix it. At Colorwheel Painting, our workmanship is backed by a one-year warranty. After 20+ years of service in the Milwaukee area, you can rest assured weโ€™ll make it right!

4: Our Professionals Are Well-Trained & Proven

Even the most seasoned homeowners can make mistakes regarding something as specialized as wallpaper installation and removal. While homeowners may know what wallpaper they like best for a particular area, our team knows how to check the wallโ€™s substrate to see which removal method would work best or what to do to make the best installation possible.

Overzealous scoring often causes damage to drywall, which is why Colorwheel Painting chooses hot water, DIF solution, and steamers over scoring tools for seamless, precise wallpaper removal.

5: Thereโ€™s No Room For Error

Many projects are great for DIY, but wallpaper installation isnโ€™t one of them. So many aspects of the job have to be perfect. The wall condition, measurements, and cutting are enough to send even the most hardened DIY enthusiast running for the hills.

Donโ€™t risk making a mistake on your wallpaper installation here in Brookfield (where our 10,000sf workshop is located) when weโ€™re just a phone call away.
