With so many wallpaper DIY videos online, you might be tempted to turn it into a DIY project. While it’s understandable, below are reasons to hire us instead.
When installing wallpaper, seam issues are a big problem that requires experience and skill to avoid. When you attempt to DIY:
- The paste may dry on the wallpaper edges when booking
- You might end up with loose or curling ends because you didn’t add sufficient adhesive or because of poor surface preparation.
This happens when the adhesive dries on top of the wallpaper, if the wall wasn’t primed properly or if the wallpaper you are installing is too transparent.
Strip gaps appear because of:
- Poor surface preparation
- The wallpaper drying too fast after wetting
Insufficient wall preparation could cause blisters and bubbles on the surface. Also, if you hand the paper in cold temperature or the strips don’t get enough time to dry.
- Not having enough material
How much wallpaper do you need for the project? As professional wallpaper installers, we recommend getting 20-25% more wallpaper for every room to avoid a shortage of materials.
Different wallpapers are hung differently. Our experience has granted us a unique opportunity to work with different wallpapers and learn the best installation process to ensure the best results.
