Essential Preparation Work For Wallpaper Installation

As part of our wallpaper installation services, we prioritise thorough preparation before hanging wallpaper in our customers’ homes. Here are five essential preparation works that our team performs before wallpaper installation:

We clean the walls thoroughly
We understand the importance of having clean walls before wallpaper installation. Our team uses a damp cloth to wipe the walls clean and ensure that they are free from dust, debris, and other residues that could affect the wallpaper’s adhesion.

We repair any damages
Our team checks the walls for cracks, holes, or dents that could affect the wallpaper’s appearance. We use spackling compounds or fillers to repair these damages, ensuring the wall is smooth and even.

We remove old wallpaper
If there is existing wallpaper on the wall, we use a wallpaper steamer or stripper to loosen it and carefully peel it off the wall.

We prime the walls
Our team applies a primer to the walls before hanging wallpaper to help the wallpaper adhere better and prevent any stains or discolouration from bleeding.

We measure and plan the wallpaper placement
Accurate measurement and planning are essential for ensuring the wallpaper pattern is aligned correctly and centred on the wall. Our team measures the wall dimensions and the wallpaper pattern to determine the best placement.

By performing these preparation works, we ensure that our wallpaper installation services are of the highest quality and that our customers can enjoy a beautiful and long-lasting wallpaper finish in their homes.

Types of Wallpaper That We Install

Vinyl-Coated Wallpaper
Vinyl coated wallpaper is one of the most diverse types, suitable for most any room but particularly the kitchen and bathroom due to its improved water resistance. This type of paper is made when printed paper product is sprayed or coated with acrylic vinyl or polyvinyl chloride (PVC) on its surface. This coating makes washing easy and also makes the surface resistant to grease and moisture penetration.

Coated-Fabric Wallpaper
Coated-fabric wallpaper is made by printing patterns directly onto a vinyl- or acrylic-coated fabric. Considered more breathable and of higher quality than vinyl-coated paper, and thus up to twice as expensive per roll, coated-fabric paper tends to absorb moisture rather than repel it. Therefore, this type is a poor choice for kitchens and bathrooms as well as for homes in climates with sustained high humidity levels and no air conditioning.

Paper-Backed or Solid-Sheet Vinyl Wallpaper
Paper-backed Vinyl wallpaper, also known as solid sheet vinyl wallpaper, is incredibly durable and easy to clean. It is made when a paper substrate is laminated into an acrylic to create a single, solid decorated surface. Solid sheet vinyl papers are also often embossed to give texture to a wall surface, making them a more dynamic alternative to vinyl-coated paper. Because they are easy to peel, removing this paper is simple, but that also means that paper-backed or solid sheet vinyl does not hold up well in high-traffic areas such as mudrooms.

Fabric-Backed Vinyl Wallpaper
Similar to the vinyl-coated paper, fabric-backed vinyl wallpaper has a strong, moisture-resistant surface of acrylic or vinyl. However, as the name implies, this type has a fabric backing rather than a paper one. As a result, fabric-backed vinyl paper is incredibly durable and tear-resistant as well as impervious to moisture and humidity. Because of these traits, it is common to find fabric-backed vinyl wallpaper in commercial applications and in high-traffic residential rooms.

Less Common Wallpaper Types
In addition to these common types of wallpaper, there are many other premium and traditional types to note, including the velvet-like flock wallpaper, the polished-looking foil wallpaper, natural bamboo wallpaper, and even just plain paper that resembles kraft paper. These less common types are generally more expensive (with the exception of plain paper) and usually more fragile than the modern vinyl and coated varieties found in most home improvement and decor stores.

These tasks don’t seem to be too difficult, but we can take some time to learn. So if you don’t have much experience doing them, it is better to leave them with our professionals to avoid making a big mess out of the project. Whatever type of wall covering you want to install, whether it’s vinyl coated paper, embossed wallpaper, or natural textile wall coverings, our professional wallpaper installer know exactly how to work with it and get the job done right.

Professional Wallpaper Installation Saves You Money
Although it seems counterintuitive, professional wallpaper installation services are actually more cost-effective than doing everything yourself. Installing wallpaper requires different tools, which cost money. While you may have some of the items lying around, there are still other tools you will likely have to buy to do the job correctly, depending on the type of wall covering you’ll use. DIY Move – when you compute the cost of tools and materials, not to mention the extra expenses you’ll incur when you mess something up, you’ll find that it is more expensive than hiring a professional wallpaper installer who can get it right the first time. We have our own high-quality industrial-grade tools and skills that we us properly and efficiently, so you don’t have to worry about anything.

Hiring Professionals Is A Hassle-Free Way Of Installing Your Wallpaper
Let’s get real– wallpaper installation is not the most fun activity, especially if you’re inexperienced. So if you’re choosing the DIY route, expect that there will be a lot of trial and error and frustrations. Also, if you’re not the most patient person and want to avoid all the hassle, the best course of action is to call our reliable wallpaper installers.

Professional Wallpapering Services Include Clean-Up Work After The Job
Once the project is complete, we will not just grab their tools and go home. We will do the clean up afterwards and leave your home spotless. It sounds seamless when you observe technicians from Kairos Upholstery applying wallpaper. However, it is not as simple as it seems. In a way similar, the removal of the wallpaper imparts the glue on walls which is tedious task to execute.

You Will Achieve Better Results With Professional Wallpaper Installers
Just think about it, who do you think will do the job better– a novice DIYer like you or our experienced wallpaper installers? Our professional installers have undergone training and have performed this task hundreds of times will produce high-quality results.
