Tips For Installing Wallpaper

1. Properly Prepare The Walls

It is important to prepare your walls before wallpaper installation. In the event that your walls are textured, then they will have to be floated and then primed. It isn’t recommended that wallpaper is installed on textured walls but it can be done. However, you will notice the texture on the wallpaper and the seams won’t be able to be closed as neatly as possible.

2. Obtain Matching Lot/Run Number

You need to get matching lot or run numbers since different numbers could negatively impact matching or even color shadow.

3. Get Sufficient Materials

Depending on the project, it may have more or less waste than other projects. To put this into perspective, a dining room or even a bathroom typically has more wastage than an accent wall. Also, the pattern match that is selected will also determine how much wallpaper is required and will be wasted. If you choose a random pattern, then this will result in much less wastage.

4. Wallpaper Estimator

On average, for every 50sqft of wallpaper you need, you’ll have to get a double roll. You’ll also require about 20% more wallpaper if your wallpapering project requires lots of cuts or if the wallpaper has an offset or straight match. Once the wallpaper has been installed, there may be leftovers. You should keep them in case you need them for repairs in the future.
