Get matched with top wallpaper pros in Pinnacle, NC

Q: How do you layer wallpaper over wallpaper?

• <div><p>To layer wallpaper over wallpaper, inspect your existing wallpaper for problem areas. Damaged wallpaper should not be covered. If it&rsquo;s okay to proceed, prep by turning off the electricity and removing any outlet and switch covers. Dust your walls and lightly rinse them to prevent the existing paper from peeling. Apply primer, then apply your new wallpaper. </p></div>

Q: How many rolls of peel-and-stick wallpaper do I need?

• <div><p>To determine how many rolls of peel-and-stick wallpaper you need, measure the square footage of the walls you&rsquo;re covering and divide that by the square footage that each roll covers. Add 10% to 20% of your total square footage to account for pattern matching or damage while installing. </p></div>

Q: Should I overlap seams when hanging wallpaper?

• <div><p>No. If you overlap seams, the wallpaper will not come out flat. In addition to possibly throwing off your pattern match between rolls, overlapping seems necessary. If wallpaper is properly acclimated, and temperature and moisture conditions are optimal during installation, there is no reason to fear shrinkage as it dries.</p></div>

Q: Is hanging wallpaper difficult?

• <div><p>Hanging wallpaper may seem simple, but in practice it requires significant planning and finesse to make it look professional. To start, you need to get an even application of wallpaper paste across all of your wallpaper, which requires experience and large pasting tables to get right. You also need to plan out your design and match it exactly so that you don&rsquo;t have imperfections in the finished product. It&rsquo;s often better to hire a professional wallpaper hanger who can get the job done properly for a clean, smooth finish.</p></div>

Q: How can wallpaper be covered without removing it?

• <div><p>Painting over wallpaper is an efficient way to cover it if it&rsquo;s in decent shape. Before painting over wallpaper, make sure the surface is clean and smooth. You may have to remove minor problem areas, such as lifted seams or small peels, with a sheetrock knife or putty knife. Add a latex- or oil-based primer to keep moisture at bay before painting. You&rsquo;ll likely need two coats of paint to cover the area.</p></div>

"He was prompt in responding to my request to come out and give me a quote when I was ready to go. His workers came in and were very meticulous and methodical, which is what I wanted. We used three different colors in each room -- for trim, ceiling and walls -- they got the colors right, the edges were clean, and given that this is a holiday, they've done it in a timely manner. They'll be finished probably tomorrow or the next day. I would definitely use them again."
