Frequently Asked Questions

1. Is it better to use wallpaper or paint the walls? What are some advantages to going with wallpaper? 

There are actually numerous benefits to using wallpaper over paint. First of all, wallpapers are popular and in fashion. The plethora of designs, colors, patterns and textures makes it easy to create a space that’s truly your own, be it mild or wild. Wallpapers can add dimension and depth to your room, as well as make it seem larger or smaller. You can achieve almost any look with the right wallpaper. Moreover, wallpapers are easy to remove when you want a fresh look.That’s not all, though. Wallpapers are great at covering up defects on your walls. No more dark spots or bad patches. Wallpapers are great at masking most imperfections. And to top off that long list of benefits, let us say that wallpapers are durable and easy to clean, making them a better choice than paint. 

2. How much is an average wallpaper installation? 

There is no one answer to this question. The total installation cost varies greatly depending on several factors: the wallpaper you’re using (material), the number and sizes of rooms/walls being covered as well as the general appearance of the walls (Does old wallpaper need to be removed? Do you need to cover up some holes before applying new wallpaper?). On average, it can cost anywhere from $800 to $1200 to install new wallpaper. 

3. Can you share some wallpaper installation tips? 

Tips are great with all home decor projects. Wallpaper installation is no different. Here are some of the things to keep in mind: 

• Prime your walls before applying wallpaper. It will optimize the whole process, making it much smoother. You’ll also be glad you used a primer when it’s time to take the wallpaper down. 
• Wallpapers can be applied directly to drywall, however, proper preparation is needed. Before putting the wallpaper up, prime and seal the drywall. 
• Applying new wallpaper on the old one is possible but not recommended. It’s much better to take the old material off first with warm water or a hot vinegar solution. 
• Lastly, if you’re dealing with textured walls, don’t fret. Skim-coating can help you smooth out the wall and prep it for wallpaper installation.
