Removing old wallpaper can instantly refresh a room, but most homeowners wonder: how much does wallpaper removal cost in South Florida? The answer depends on a few factors — room size, wall condition, and labor time. At Sunshine Painting Contractors, we make this process simple, efficient, and budget-friendly.
Average Wallpaper Removal Cost in South Florida
In South Florida, the cost to remove wallpaper typically ranges between $1.50 and $3.50 per square foot. For an average room (12′ x 12′), this usually comes to $350 – $750, depending on:
Number of Wallpaper Layers – Single-layer wallpaper is faster to remove, while multiple layers take extra time.
Wall Condition – If the wall is damaged, skim-coating or patching may be needed before painting.
Room Size & Height – Larger rooms or high ceilings require more labor and equipment.
