What’s included

What it usually covers

Wallpaper is unforgiving. A pattern that drifts or a seam that opens is noticed every time someone walks in. Hanging it well is mostly patience and a straight line.

Preparation

How it’s prepared

Old paper stripped, walls filled, sanded and sized so the new paper sits flat and stays put. Patterns are set out from the focal point of the room.

  1. Strip the old paper
  2. Fill, sand and size
  3. Set out from the focal point

In Stoke-on-Trent

Woodchip and layers of old paper are common in older local homes. Steaming them off can loosen tired plaster underneath, so lining paper is sometimes the better base for a new paper or for paint.
