Should bathroom walls be lighter or darker?

• <div><p>Darker walls may make tight bathrooms appear even smaller, but one dark accent wall can really make a bathroom pop. Wallpaper with a dark background can add intrigue and sophistication. Still, if you’re looking to open the room up and give it a modern, airy feeling, light colors may work best for your needs. Although there are some popular and unpopular opinions, there’s really no “should” when it comes to personal design choice. </p></div>

Q: Is it a good idea to wallpaper a bathroom?

• <div><p>While you technically can <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/can-you-put-wallpaper-in-bathroom.htm">put wallpaper in a bathroom</a>, it doesn&rsquo;t mean you should. Bathrooms are high-humidity areas, but if your bathroom is well-ventilated, it can work, especially depending on the placement. If the wallpaper is installed away from direct water contact, like a vanity or accent wall, it will hold up better than if it were directly next to the shower. </p></div>

Q: Can I put up my own wallpaper?

• <div><p>It&rsquo;s possible to hang your own wallpaper, but the process is tedious and potentially frustrating, and it can be challenging to get seams to line up and look clean and professional. Plus, depending on the type of wallpaper you&rsquo;re installing, using too much or too little adhesive could cause damage to your drywall or plaster, peeling, and bubbling in the final product. It&rsquo;s usually a better idea to <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/5-questions-ask-when-hiring-wallpaper-pro.htm">hire a professional wallpaper installer</a> to do the work for you, as the relatively low cost is justifiable, if only to avoid damage to your walls.</p></div>

Q: What materials are best for walls?

• <div><p>Options include bricks, natural stone, and concrete blocks. Choose based on durability, aesthetics, and budget.</p></div>

Q: How much does wallpaper cost?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-it-cost-hang-wallpaper.htm">Wallpaper costs</a> depend on several factors, such as the type, who's installing it, and how much you need. Usually, peel-and-stick wallpaper costs less than more permanent options. If you DIY, you can also expect your costs to be lower compared to working with a professional. The average cost to install wallpaper is <b>$560</b>, but total costs can range from <b>$175 to $1,500.</b></p></div>

Fantastic. They were clear to understand what we wanted which involved repairing as much as possible the past poor paint jobs, wallpaper damage, etc. It came out great - they were very detail oriented, communicated extremely well and were fast without rushing.
