Working with Older Walls & Preservation Mindset
Older homes present challenges that modern construction does not. Plaster walls may be uneven, cracked, or have multiple layers of previous wallpaper and paint. Our team has extensive experience assessing these conditions and developing appropriate preparation strategies. We use gentle techniques that preserve the integrity of original plaster while creating a suitable surface for new wallcovering. Our preservation-minded approach means we never use aggressive methods that could damage historic materials. We also understand the importance of breathability in older wall systems and select materials accordingly.
