Wallpaper Installation Information

Installation

Professional installation is strongly recommended. Wallpaper sales are final. We cannot be held responsible for errors that may occur during installation. We recommend ordering 20% or more than the space requires as slight differences may occur between orders.

Preparing the Walls

The wall you are applying your paper to should be smooth, clean and dust free. Any damaged areas should be repaired. Wallpaper should be applied to a light colored surface, and not over existing wallpaper.

Applying the Paper

Apply paste generously to the back, edge to edge, smoothly and evenly using a paint roller. Book the paper by loosely folding the pasted sides together without creasing. Align the edges carefully so the paste doesn’t dry out. Gently roll the booked piece to ensure the pasted sides make good contact. Allow to soak and expand for 3-5 minutes. Use a smoothing brush to remove all air pockets, wrinkles and excess paste by brushing the wallcovering from the center to the edges. A seam roller can be used to lightly roll edges of paper being careful not to push paste out.

Using a clean, damp sponge, gently wash adhesive completely from the surface of the wallcovering immediately after each strip is hung. Any adhesive left on the wallcovering can cause them to flake over time.
