Prep is our obsession.

Cracks filled and sanded flat. Gaps caulked so lines stay crisp. Stains blocked, bare patches primed, old wallpaper stripped properly — not papered over. It's slower, and it's the only way your York project keeps looking sharp for years. If a wall needs plastering rather than paint, we'll tell you honestly.

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?

Yes — stripping, wall repair and repainting is one of our most common jobs. We strip properly, skim or fill as needed, and leave you paint-ready walls or a full painted finish.
