Wallpaper Hanging in Sutton Coldfield

We offer wallpaper hanging in Sutton Coldfield, from a single feature wall to whole rooms in designer papers. We take care over setting out and pattern matching, so joins are tight and patterns line up around the room.

What's included

We hang most types of wallcovering and can remove old paper and prepare the walls beforehand.

Our preparation process

Wallpaper shows every lump underneath it, so the wall needs to be right first. We strip old paper using steam where needed, taking care not to damage the plaster, then wash off old paste residue.

Cracks and holes are filled and sanded smooth. On bare or patched plaster we apply a primer or size so the paste grips evenly and the paper can be repositioned while hanging. On poorer walls we may recommend lining paper first.

Before cutting, we plan where the pattern will start and finish so the most visible areas look right, and check batch numbers on every roll.

How we protect your home

Wallpapering is messy before it's neat. We cover floors and furniture before stripping or lining, because steam, wet paste and sanding dust get everywhere. Skirting boards, window sills and sockets are masked, switches and plates are removed where needed, and offcuts and old paper are bagged up as we go. Once the paper is hung, we wipe paste from the woodwork and check the seams in good light before we leave.

FAQ

How many rolls do I need?

It depends on wall size, roll size and pattern repeat. Send us measurements or photos and we will work out quantities before you order.

Can you hang paper I have already bought?

Yes. We will check the batch numbers and hanging instructions before we start.

Can you hang wallpaper on a ceiling?

Yes, we hang lining paper and decorative papers on ceilings.

Will removing old wallpaper damage my walls?

Sometimes old plaster comes away with the paper. We take care and repair any damage as part of the preparation.

What is lining paper for?

It gives a smoother, more stable base on uneven or patched walls, which helps both paint and decorative paper look better.
