Wallpaper Hanging FAQ Section

How do you calculate how much wallpaper I need?

We measure wall dimensions, account for pattern repeats, subtract openings, and add wastage allowances. For complex patterns, we recommend extra time to avoid mid-job shortages.

Can you hang wallpaper in bathrooms and kitchens?

Yes, using moisture-resistant papers and appropriate adhesives designed for high-humidity environments. We recommend vinyl or vinyl-coated papers for these rooms.

What's the difference between paste-the-wall and paste-the-paper?

Paste-the-wall papers allow faster application with paste applied directly to walls. Traditional paste-the-paper requires pasting each strip and "booking" before hanging—slower but necessary for certain paper types.

Can you remove the old wallpaper first?

Absolutely. Our service includes stripping existing wallpaper using steamers or professional solutions, treating stubborn areas, and preparing surfaces to perfect smoothness before new paper application.

Do you work with wallpapers purchased elsewhere?

Yes, we're happy to hang papers from any supplier. We simply ask that you purchase 10-15% extra to account for pattern matching and potential fitting challenges.
