Types of Residential Wallcoverings

When choosing your wallcoverings, there are several factors to consider to ensure you achieve the desired aesthetic and functionality for your space. The color, style, and overall look and quality of the wallpaper are certainly important, but the process of residential wallpaper installation is equally critical to the final outcome.

Different types of wallcoverings require different installation methods. For instance, some wallpapers may require a specific type of adhesive, while others may need particular preparation of the walls. As professional wallpaper installers, we at Hester Painting & Decorating are well-versed in these methods and can guide you through the process.

We also understand that the quality of the installation can significantly impact the longevity and appearance of your wallcoverings. Poorly installed wallpaper can lead to issues like peeling, bubbling, or uneven seams, which can detract from the beauty of the design. That’s why we emphasize the importance of professional wallpaper installation.
