Wallpaper Installation Questions
Everything you need to know before your project begins
Most residential projects can be scheduled within one to two weeks of your initial inquiry. Larger commercial jobs or installations requiring specialty materials such as grasscloth or hand-printed papers may need three to four weeks of lead time to allow for material sourcing and scheduling.
We focus exclusively on professional installation, but we are happy to recommend trusted wallpaper brands and suppliers. We also help you calculate the exact number of rolls needed based on your wall measurements, pattern repeat, and layout to avoid over-ordering or shortages.
