Cut away the wall sheathing to reveal the wall interior. Use a utility knife or drywall saw to cut the vertical portion first, over top of the studs, then connect the cuts horizontally. A utility knife and carpenter's square as a straightedge provide greater control. Cut shallowly, to avoid cutting into the wall framing or any wiring or plumbing it contains. Pry the sheathing off the wall in chunks. Watch for the presence of wiring or plumbing. Call a professional to move them if necessary. 5
