No we charge by the job.
Every job is different. In order to give you
an accurate estimate there are many
factors I have to consider; The type of
wallpaper, amount of wall preparation,
architecture of the room, size of the job.
etc. While I may be able to give you a
range of price over the phone in order to
give you a price in writing I need to
measure and evaluate your job in person,
*There is no charge for a consultation.
TO FIND THE CORRECT AMOUNT OF
WALLPAPER WE MUST FIND THE SQUARE
FOOTAGE OF A ROOM
Measure the perimeter of your room
Multiply that figure by the height
Do not deduct windows or doors
With allowing for enough wallpaper you
won’t have to “piece”
Multiplying width by height gives you the
square footage
Example a room 10′ X 10′ with 8′ ceilings would be
10+ 10+ 10+10=40 X 8 = 320 square feet
Give that number to us along with the
pattern number and manufacturer of the wallpaper and will ensure you purchase
the correct amount of wallpaper.

It is always preferred to remove the
existing wall covering. Any time you take a
chance and hang over the old paper, you
are gambling with your NEW wall
covering! We just don’t think it is worth the
gamble!
• The original adhesive wasn’t designed
to hold two layers of wall covering;
layers may release from the wall.
• The moisture content in the new paste
may cause the old wallpaper to bubble
or lift.
• The old seams could also lift, and then
show through.
• The old pattern may “shadow” through.
• Some may want to hang over the old
wallpaper from the get go, but this truly
is the last resort
Remember one very important
rule, ALWAYS PRIME. Before hanging, use
a primer specifically made for use under
wallcoverings. Priming offers the best
insurance to a terrific job.
Sizing doesn’t seal the surface so in the
future, there could be some major drywall
damage upon removal.
A good quality primer will actually seal the
wall surface, creating a more structurally
stable area for the wall covering to bond
to. Sizing, is really just watered down
paste.
A few dollars more for a quality
primer rather than a wall size, is money
well spent.
Builders flat must be primed AND sealed
before installing wallpaper.
In new construction, builders use a paint
which the industry calls “builders flat”. It is
a minimum quality flat paint used on walls
and ceilings of both low and high end, new
construction. The paint serves to get the
homeowner moved in. It is very porous and
chalky….. Not a good surface for wall
covering. Applying wall covering over
this very porous surface can allow paste to
travel into the facing of the drywall, making
later removal very difficult, if not
impossible.
Your wallpaper will be professionally
installed by myself or my son Tyler.
