How Do You Remove Wallpaper Without Wallpaper Remover?

You can remove wallpaper without wallpaper remover by using hot water and dish soap.

Simple Steps for Wallpaper Removal Using Hot Water and Dish Soap

Here's a breakdown of how to remove wallpaper without a commercial remover:

Prepare the Solution: Fill a bucket with hot water and add a dash of washing-up liquid (dish soap). The soap helps to break down the adhesive.
Apply to the Wallpaper: You can apply this solution to the wallpaper using a sponge, cloth, or brush. If the wallpaper seems particularly stubborn, you might want to opt for a brush to ensure good coverage.
Soak the Wallpaper: Let the water solution soak into the wallpaper for a few minutes. This will allow the moisture to penetrate the wallpaper and soften the adhesive. The amount of time will depend on the type and the way your wallpaper was installed.
Peel and Scrape: After the soaking process, the wallpaper should be easier to peel off the wall. You may need a scraper or spatula to assist with removal in tougher areas.

For particularly tricky areas or multiple layers of wallpaper you may need to repeat the process to fully saturate the wallpaper and weaken the adhesive.
Work in small sections at a time to prevent the water solution from drying before you are able to attempt the removal.
Be careful not to get the wall too wet. It is best to soak the wallpaper itself.
If the wallpaper doesn't peel cleanly, it may be necessary to use a scraper or spatula to carefully remove any remaining pieces. Be gentle and try not to gouge the wall behind it.
