Good to know

Wallpapering in Portswood — FAQs.

How much does wallpaper hanging cost per room?

It depends on wall sizes, the paper's pattern repeat and how much wall prep is needed. Send us photos and the paper you have in mind on WhatsApp for a free fixed quote.

Do I need lining paper?

On older or imperfect walls, usually yes — it hides small defects and gives the top paper a perfect surface. We'll tell you honestly after seeing your walls.

Can you remove old wallpaper and paint instead?
