Should I wallpaper over old wallpaper?

• <div><p>We don’t recommend wallpapering over older paper. That’s because creating layers of glue can invite bubbling or excess moisture on the wall’s surface. You should also prime your wall before applying wallpaper and smooth the wall as much as you can, and another layer of wallpaper complicates this process.</p></div>

Q: Should I wallpaper over old wallpaper?

• <div><p>We don&rsquo;t recommend wallpapering over older paper. That&rsquo;s because creating layers of glue can invite bubbling or excess moisture on the wall&rsquo;s surface. You should also prime your wall before applying wallpaper and smooth the wall as much as you can, and another layer of wallpaper complicates this process.</p></div>

Q: Will installing a Murphy bed damage my walls?

• <div><p>Proper Murphy bed installation minimizes wall damage, but some holes for anchors or brackets are necessary for secure attachment. These can be easily patched if the bed is removed in the future, leaving your walls looking like new. Hiring a professional Murphy bed installer helps ensure minimal and repairable impact.</p></div>

Q: Can you wallpaper over wallpaper?

• <div><p>It depends: You can wallpaper over non-coated wallpaper, but you should never wallpaper over vinyl-coated wallpaper. This non-recommended method will cause the new wallpaper to fail to stick, which can lead to bubbling, imperfections, and even mold growth between the layers of wallpaper. Consult a professional wallpaper hanger to determine your existing wallpaper type or remove the current wallpaper and paste residue so that the new wallpaper will adhere properly.</p></div>

Q: Why is my wallpaper not sticking to the wall?

• <div><p>The two most common reasons wallpaper does not stick are a lack of preparation and improper adhesive. Be sure to use the wallpaper paste designed for the type of paper you choose. Before beginning your project, make sure the walls are clean and free of dust, grease, and oils. </p></div>

Q: Is there anything I can do about a bubble in my wallpaper?

• <div><p>You can often fix an air bubble by cutting a tiny hole in the bubble with a very sharp knife, using a glue syringe to inject some adhesive behind the bubbled portion of paper, and then using a wallpaper smoothing tool to push the bubble back onto the wall's surface.</p></div>
