Answers to common questions about wallpaper installation, removal, and our services.
Wallpaper installation costs vary based on wall condition, material type, pattern complexity, and room size. We provide free, detailed estimates after assessing your space.

Factors that influence pricing include the amount of wall preparation needed, the type of wallcovering selected, and the complexity of pattern matching required.
Most single-room installations are completed in one day. Larger projects or rooms requiring extensive wall preparation may take two to three days. We provide a timeline estimate during your initial consultation. Our team works efficiently while maintaining the highest quality standards, and we always communicate clearly about scheduling.
Yes, we offer complete wallpaper removal services. Proper removal and wall preparation are essential for a lasting installation. We safely strip old paper, repair any wall damage, and prime surfaces before applying new wallcovering. Installing over old wallpaper is generally not recommended as it can cause bubbling, peeling, and adhesion issues.
We install all types of wallcoverings including vinyl, pre-pasted paper, grasscloth, silk, fabric-backed, peel-and-stick, custom murals, and commercial-grade Type II vinyl. Each material requires specific techniques that our experienced team has mastered. Whether you need residential wallpaper or commercial wallcovering, we have the expertise to deliver flawless results.
Textured walls typically need to be smoothed before wallpaper installation. We offer skim coating and surface preparation services to create a perfectly smooth substrate. This ensures proper adhesion and a flawless finished appearance. Homes in Cheektowaga and Tonawanda often have textured plaster that we regularly prepare for wallcovering.
