Installation of wall coverings

Installation of Wall Coverings

Wall coverings can transform a room more dramatically than almost any other interior finish. Whether you want a calm, seamless look or a bold feature wall, professional installation is the difference between a surface that lasts for years and one that peels, bubbles, or shows every seam. We install a wide range of wall coverings for homes and commercial spaces, with careful preparation, clean workmanship, and reliable scheduling.

Wall Coverings We Install

Different materials need different handling, adhesives, and installation techniques. We help you choose an option that fits the room conditions, the level of traffic, and the finish you want.

• Wallpaper including paper, vinyl, non woven, and textured designs
• Feature wall materials such as fabric backed coverings and specialty finishes
• Protective wall coverings suitable for corridors, offices, and busy areas
• Wall panels and cladding depending on the substrate and system requirements

If your project also involves rebuilding or leveling the underlying surfaces, we can coordinate with related works like wall and ceiling construction so the finished covering sits on a stable, properly prepared base.

Our Installation Process

1. Site check and preparation

We start by inspecting the wall condition, moisture risks, and existing finishes. Old wallpaper, flaky paint, grease, or dust will prevent proper bonding, so we remove unstable layers and clean thoroughly. Cracks and dents are filled, surfaces are sanded, and absorbent walls are primed or sized to create even suction and reduce the chance of lifting seams.

2. Accurate layout and cutting

Professional results come from planning. We mark plumb lines, plan pattern repeats, and position seams to look balanced around doors, windows, and corners. This avoids awkward misalignments and reduces waste. For patterned wallpaper, we match motifs carefully so the design looks continuous from strip to strip.

3. Adhesive selection and application

We choose the right adhesive for the material and the surface, then apply it according to manufacturer guidance. Some coverings require paste on the wall, others need paste on the material and a soaking time. Correct adhesive handling improves open time, makes positioning easier, and prevents stains or bleed through.

4. Hanging, smoothing, and seam finishing

Each drop is positioned, smoothed, and trimmed with precision. We use the correct tools to remove air pockets without stretching the material, and we roll seams carefully to ensure solid contact without forcing adhesive to the surface. Around sockets and switches, we isolate power where required and cut neatly for a clean, safe finish.

5. Final inspection and clean up

We check seams, corners, and edges under good lighting, then wipe residue as appropriate for the material. The work area is left tidy, and we share practical aftercare guidance so your new wall finish stays looking sharp.

Why Surface Quality Matters

Many wall covering problems start beneath the surface. Uneven plaster, poorly repaired drywall joints, or movement in the wall can telegraph through even thick materials. If you are renovating and need straighter walls before the new finish goes on, we can advise on prep or collaborate with services like drywall wall construction and related wall lining work to create a smooth foundation.

We also consider room conditions. Kitchens, bathrooms, and utility spaces may need moisture resistant coverings and correct ventilation. In commercial settings, impact and cleaning requirements often determine which products perform best long term.

Residential and Commercial Projects

We handle single room upgrades as well as larger fit outs, working neatly in occupied spaces and minimizing disruption. For homeowners, we can install nursery designs, feature walls in living rooms, and durable finishes for hallways and staircases. For offices, retail, and hospitality, we focus on clean seams, consistent alignment, and schedules that work around your operating hours.

• Homes bedrooms, living rooms, entryways, stairwells, home offices
• Commercial reception areas, meeting rooms, corridors, boutiques, studios
• New build and refurbishment including coordination with wall and ceiling finishing when walls need upgrading first

What to Expect When You Book

We provide clear communication from the first visit to the final check. You will get guidance on material quantities, pattern repeat considerations, and realistic timelines based on drying times and surface conditions. If we find hidden issues like damp patches, weak plaster, or previously painted gloss surfaces that need extra preparation, we explain the options before proceeding so there are no surprises.

1. Discuss your material choice, room use, and desired finish
2. Assess the substrate and agree on preparation steps
3. Install with precise layout, clean seams, and careful trimming
4. Complete a final walkthrough and share aftercare advice

For a wall finish that looks smooth, aligned, and professionally installed, we are ready to help you plan the right wall covering solution and deliver a result you will be proud to live or work with.
