FAQ

Wallpapering Questions

Common questions about wallpaper stripping, hanging, and achieving that perfect finish.

we always recommend removing old wallpaper before hanging new. Painting over wallpaper often leads to peeling, bubbling, and visible seams. we provide professional wallpaper stripping services using steamers and safe chemical solutions where appropriate. Your walls are then prepared properly for a smooth, lasting finish.
Sharp seams cous from proper preparation and technique. We sand walls smooth, apply sizing to create the right surface, use a sharp blade for trimming (never tearing), and work quickly with paste to prevent drying. For patterned wallpaper, we carefully match patterns at eye level and work outwards. The result is invisible seams and a professional finish.
Lining paper creates a smooth base for wallpaper or paint. It's essential on old walls with cracks, textured surfaces, or previous damage. It prevents your final wallpaper from highlighting imperfections. we often recommend it for older homes in Surrey, especially Victorian and Edwardian properties common in Croydon and Purley.
Yes, but We use specialist vinyl or washable wallpapers designed for high-humidity areas. Standard wallpaper will peel and mould in bathrooms. we also ensure walls are properly sealed and recommend mould-resistant lining paper. For kitchens, grease-resistant wallpapers are essential near cooking areas.
A single feature wall typically takes a day including preparation. A full room might take 2-3 days depending on complexity, pattern matching requirements, and drying tius between lining paper and final wallpaper. I'll give you a clear timeline when we quote.
Wallpapering looks simple until you try it. Professionals ensure patterns match perfectly, seams are invisible, bubbles don't form, and the finish lasts. I've seen many DIY attempts that needed complete redoing — costing more than hiring us initially. Our work is guaranteed for 24 months.
