Wallpaper Aftercare Tips for Homeowners
Proper care extends the life of your wallpaper investment. After installation, we recommend waiting at least 48 hours before cleaning or touching the surface to allow the adhesive to fully cure. For day-to-day maintenance, gently dust your walls with a soft cloth or use a vacuum with a brush attachment on a low setting.
For vinyl and non-woven wallpapers, you can spot-clean with a damp sponge and mild soap. Grasscloth and silk wallpapers require dry cleaning only — never use water on natural fiber wallcoverings. If you notice a seam lifting, contact us promptly and we will repair it under our two-year warranty at no additional cost.
Quick Aftercare Checklist
- Wait 48 hours before cleaning newly installed wallpaper
- Dust regularly with a soft, dry cloth
- Spot-clean vinyl and non-woven papers with a damp sponge
- Keep natural fiber wallpapers away from moisture
- Contact us immediately if you notice any seam issues
Residential Wallpaper FAQ
Common questions about home wallpaper installation
A single accent wall typically takes two to four hours. A full room with four walls usually requires one full day. Whole-home installations may take two to five days depending on the number of rooms and material type.
We recommend smoothing textured walls before installation for the best results. Our team performs skim coating and sanding as part of our surface preparation process to ensure a flawless finish.
Vinyl wallpaper and non-woven materials work best in high-moisture areas. They resist humidity, are easy to clean, and maintain their appearance over time. We can recommend specific products for your space.
