Top Wallpapering related questions

The cost of installing wallpaper can range from $80 to $150 per square metre, depending on different factors: type, size of the room, and labour for the wallpaper job. Specify the type of wallpaper services you need to get the best quotes from wallpaper specialists in your area.

The time it takes to complete a wallpapering service will depend on the service to be done. Wallpaper hanging, for example, could last anywhere between three hours to a whole day, depending on the number of rooms to be fitted with your new wall coverings. The same goes for wallpaper removals since we also need to take into account the wallpaper's type and age before proceeding. Feel free to coordinate with your Tasker so they can give you a more accurate time frame.

You can if you want to. However, if you need to attend to another errand around the house or office, you can leave your Tasker to complete the wallpapering service required. You can give them specific instructions, especially if you have any valuable items that you don't want to be moved or touched. You can always drop by the room or area to check on the progress, or you can also stick around and observe the work being done.

Not necessarily. Most Taskers can bring the necessary materials required for a wallpapering service. Typically, they'll need wall-size primers, wallpaper paste, adhesives, paint rollers, sponges, a tape measure, and scissors. If you already have some of these on hand, you can lend them to your Tasker, but do let them know if you need them to provide extra tools when posting your task.

It depends on your needs and preferences. If you tend to remodel rooms quite often, then wallpapering may be the best choice as it comes in a variety of patterns, designs, and colours that can match your current aesthetic. Wall painting, on the other hand, is a more straightforward and affordable process as it requires lesser materials and manpower. If you don't mind sticking to one shade of paint for an extended time, consider getting your walls painted instead.

No, wallpapers should not do any damage to your wall. They can even serve as a protective layer and preserve the wall underneath it. The trouble, however, would be if the wallpaper was misapplied. Incorrect adhesive, for example, can leave unremovable marks on your walls, and utilising the wrong tools for installation can lead to chips and scratches. It may be best to leave the wallpaper fitting in the hands of professional wallpaper installers to make sure that your walls remain unscathed.

You can book just about any home improvement or maintenance service with Airtasker. You can connect with plenty of tradesmen who can assist you with your electrical or plumbing concerns, whether you need someone to install light fixtures or repair broken pipes and leaks. We can also connect you with building and construction specialists for renovation projects, a plasterer to help with decorative mouldings, interior design professionals offering decorating services, and even an assembler who can put your furniture together for you.

What do wallpapering services include?

Our wallpapering services involve an expert going to your home or office to fit or remove your wallpapers. They can also lend a hand with repairs and touch-ups in case your wallpaper is suffering from tears or peeling edges. This way, you can improve the look of your wallpaper without spending time and money for replacements. The actual process will depend on the kind of service you need:


Wallpaper hanging

Wallpaper hanging involves installing your desired wallpaper to a specific room in your home. A wallcovering installer will go to your location, take the appropriate wall measurements, and hang your wallpapers in place. Depending on the type of wallpaper you have, your wallpaper fitter can either paste the wall or the actual paper or do a peel-and-stick procedure as well. We can assist you with different kinds of wallpaper, from liner and printed wallpapers to vinyl, foiled, and flock.


Our commercial wallcovering installers can also assist with wallpaper fittings for office spaces and other commercial structures. If you're looking to add some colour or personality to your building's bare and dull walls, a vinyl wall mural installation can easily do the trick as well!


Wallpaper repair

Does your wallpaper have unsightly rips and punctures? Are the edges peeling or appearing to be a little loose? Any air bubbles surfacing from the inside? You're bound to experience these common wear-and-tear issues at some point, especially if your wallpaper is continuously exposed to moisture, humidity, or sharp and hard-hitting objects.


Replacing your damaged wallpaper isn't always necessary to solve these problems. Sometimes, they only need a quick repair or touch-up to look brand new all over again. Our wallpaper repair specialists will use the necessary tools and materials to install patches to cover rips or tears, inject adhesive to eliminate bubbles, or re-glue any loose seams.


Wallpaper removal

If your wallpaper is already beyond repair, covered in moulds, or merely lacking in flair, you can choose to have it removed entirely. In just a few taps, we can connect you with nearby Taskers who can come to you and expertly remove your wallpapers. They can either use a combination of soap and water, a putty knife to scrape off the wallpaper, a wallpaper stripper solution, or a steamer to help loosen the adhesive.
