Wallpaper Installation and Removal Services

Wallpaper isn’t as simple as peel, stick, and done. Patterns need to meet, seams need to disappear, and the wall underneath needs to stay in good shape. At Evenflow Painting, we provide wallpaper installation services for new applications and careful removal when existing wallpaper needs to come down.

Professional Wallpaper Installation and Removal For Your Walls

Wallpaper can make a strong visual difference in a room, but the finished look depends on how well it is installed. Unlike standard wall painting, wallpaper requires a different approach. The way each section is measured, cut, positioned and joined can affect how the finished design looks across the room.
Our professional wallpaper installation services cover the preparation and application of new wallpaper, while our wallpaper removal services help take down existing coverings before a new finish is installed. Wall preparation can also be included when the surface needs attention before the new wallpaper goes up.

Our Wallpaper Installation & Removal Process

Wallpaper installation and removal involve different stages, depending on what is already on the walls and what you want to install next. We consider the room layout, wallpaper design, existing covering and condition of the walls throughout the process.

Wall & Room Measurements

Accurate measurements help determine how much wallpaper is needed and how the design will sit across the room. We consider wall dimensions, corners, doors, windows, and other fixed features before installation. This is particularly important when working with wallpaper that has a repeating or detailed pattern.

Pattern Planning

Patterned wallpaper needs to be positioned so the design flows naturally from one section to the next. We plan the layout before applying the wallpaper to reduce noticeable breaks or awkward joins. Planning these sections in advance helps create a more balanced finished design.

Wallpaper Cutting

Wallpaper sections need to be cut to suit the dimensions and features of the room. Careful cutting helps account for corners, openings, and areas where the wall changes shape.

Seam & Edge Installation

The joins between wallpaper sections need to sit neatly without disrupting the overall pattern. We pay attention to seams, corners, edges, and areas around doors and windows during installation. These details are especially noticeable on patterned wallpaper, where even a small change in alignment can interrupt the design.

Removing Old Wallpaper

When old wallpaper needs to come down, the removal method depends on the material and how it was installed. We work through the existing covering carefully and deal with leftover adhesive as part of the removal process. The condition of the wall underneath is considered once the existing material has been removed.

Final Installation Check

Once the wallpaper is in place, we look over the completed areas to check the pattern flow, seams, edges, and overall finish. This gives us an opportunity to address visible installation issues before the work is complete. The completed walls are also reviewed around corners, openings, and other areas where wallpaper has been cut or joined.

Explore Different Types of Wallpaper

Wallpaper comes in several materials, patterns, textures and styles. The materials you choose can affect the appearance of the room as well as the installation process. For most installation projects, the following types are among the common options to consider:

Vinyl wallpaper is available in many colours, patterns, and textures. It is a common choice for homeowners looking for a decorative wall covering with a wide range of design options.
Non-woven wallpaper is made with a blend of natural and synthetic fibres. It is available in many beautiful styles and can be used to create different looks throughout a home.
Textured wallpaper adds another layer of visual interest to a wall. It can introduce raised patterns or surface detail without relying only on colour to change the look of a room.
Peel-and-stick wallpaper has an adhesive backing designed for direct application. It can be a convenient option for certain spaces where a simpler wallpaper application is preferred.

How Much Does Wallpaper Installation Cost?

The wallpaper installation cost mainly depends on the amount and type of work that is involved in a project. The price is not based on the wallpaper alone; several factors can affect the overall cost.

01

01/ Wallpaper Type

Different wallpaper materials can require different installation methods. The weight, backing, texture, and application requirements of the chosen wallpaper can all affect the work involved.

02

02/ Wall Size

Larger walls require more wallpaper and more time to install. The number of walls being covered also affects the overall scope of the job. Rooms with multiple walls, high ceilings, alcoves, or several openings can require additional measuring and cutting compared with a simple wall.

03

03/ Pattern Complexity

Simple wallpaper patterns are generally easier to measure and install. Detailed designs or patterns that need to line up from one strip to the next take more care and time to install.

04

04/ Existing Wallpaper Removal

Old wallpaper may need to be removed before new material can be installed. The cost can increase when the existing covering is difficult to remove or leaves adhesive behind. Multiple layers, stubborn adhesive or additional wall preparation can add to the time required before the new wallpaper is ready for installation.
