Your Wallis Wallpaper Removal Crew
Paper off, walls made paintable — that is the short version of how JM Painting approaches wallpaper removal, and it does not change between Wallis and anywhere else we work. What does change is the house: adhesive left on the wall bleeds through fresh paint months later, so the scope gets set on site.
Our Wallpaper Removal scope in Wallis
- Paper and backing removed in full
- Remaining adhesive washed off, not painted over
- Torn paper facing repaired and skimmed
- Walls sealed before finish coats
With a 2023 Census estimate of 1,349 residents, Wallis is large enough that we see the same construction eras repeat: subdivisions built in runs, with the same details failing in the same order. Adhesive left on the wall bleeds through fresh paint months later.
Wallis is an incorporated city in Austin County covering about 1.5 square miles, home to 1,349 residents (2023 est.), with Orchard 6 miles out, Simonton 6.2 miles out, Weston Lakes 8.1 miles out. We treat it as one stop on a route, not a special trip.
A wallpaper removal job in Wallis starts with a free walkthrough, moves to a written scope you approve, then the work itself, then a punch walk with you before we call it finished.

Why Wallis homeowners call JM Painting
Homeowners in Wallis mostly hire us twice: once to see if we are who we say we are, and again for everything after. 20+ years in, that is still the model — earn the small job, keep the standards identical on the big one.
Touch-ups and callbacks are where distance shows. With Orchard just 6 miles from Wallis on the same route, coming back to make something right is a detour for us, not a lost day, so it actually happens.
