Council drilled holes in a flat and filled holes with filler spreading onto wallpaper.


Any ideas if it's possible to remover the filler from the wallpaper.

Thanks
 
Maybe with a damp cloth?

You'd have to be very careful.

Any spare wall paper you can cut in?

Anything you can cover it with, eg picture, long mirror, new power point etc?
 
I know how. You call the cack-handed rses back to sort out they handiwork...
 
Yes it's pretty much a mess.. There are several of these.. Its a housing trust associated with the council. Prior to Dad moving in they decided to drill holes to check for asbestos.. Now pretty much every room is like this with several holes at different heights... Its not the best wallpaper anyway.. So i think stripping and new wallpaper needed.

Thanks
 
You could of course carefully shape the filler and paint the wallpaper with emulsion...
