Top Wallpapering related questions

When booking a wallpapering service in the United States, prepare to pay $100 to $1,000. The room size, room type, wallpaper type, and wall condition affect the total cost. For example, if there are holes and cracks are present, you may be charged more. You may also have to pay for the specialist’s other expenses like travel, rentals, and admin fees.


If you particularly wish to have your wallpaper replaced, the rates can go from $80 to $2,000, depending on the wallpaper’s current state, plus the room’s size and layout. It also varies per method; stripping at $0.60 to $1.50 per square foot, steaming at a minimum of $50; and soaking and scraping at $1 to $3 per square foot.

The duration depends on the type of 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 the Tasker also needs to consider the wallpaper’s type and age before proceeding. It’s best to coordinate with your Tasker so they can offer a more accurate time frame.

If you want to, yes. However, if you need to attend 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 stick around and observe the work being done. 

Not necessarily. Most Taskers also have an arsenal of important equipment for the service. They’ll usually need wall-size primers, wallpaper paste, adhesives, paint rollers, sponges, a tape measure, and scissors. If you have these materials available, you can lend them to your Tasker, but do let them know that you’ll still need extra tools when posting your task.

Revisit your preferences. If you find yourself wanting to remodel a space often, it may be smart to head the wallpapering route as it comes in a variety of patterns, designs, and colours that can match your present aesthetic. Meanwhile, wall painting is often more straightforward and affordable because it demands less materials and manpower. If sticking to one shade of paint for an extended time isn’t an issue, consider getting your walls painted instead.

No, wallpapers should not do any damage to your wall, as their purpose is  to provide a protective layer and preserve the wall underneath it. The trouble only happens when the wallpaper is misapplied. One of the causes is incorrect adhesive, which leaves unremovable marks on your walls. Using the wrong installation tools can also create chips and scratches. This is where the essence of hiring an actual wallpapering specialist to do the fitting comes in.

Absolutely. In Airtasker, you can book specialists in various home improvement or maintenance services. There are tradesmen who can lend a hand in electrical or plumbing concerns, whether you need someone to install light fixtures or repair broken pipes and leaks. You can also connect to a pool of Taskers for building (renovations), plastering (decorative mouldings), interior designing (decorating spaces), and assembling (putting furniture together).

Yes, you can check out Airtasker’s guide on how to hang wallpapers—from choosing the design to the amount of wallpaper you need.  

What do professional wallpaper services include?

Making wallpaper changes isn’t just about dusting off its surface or picking the design you’re in the mood for. The accurate way of application matters, and so is having the knowledge to spot damages. Do you need a wallpaper repair or a complete removal?


Skip the headache in figuring this out on your own with Airtasker. From how to hang wallpaper to how to troubleshoot tears, your hired Tasker can solve your worries. They are capable of doing the right application and even be the go-to person for quick consultations, like when selecting the best wallpaper for your interiors.


Here’s what you can expect:


Wallpaper hanging

Your hired wallpaper hanger near you can inject new life to your space. The process begins with removing elements (decor, electric outlet covers, or furniture) that can get in the way of fitting. The specialist can smoothen your wall using sandpaper, clean it with soap and water, and add protective primer.


Then come the measurements. This part will tell how much wallpaper the area needs. The Tasker can cut the wallpaper into strips while taking note of the recorded measurements and leaving a bit of excess for trimming purposes.


How the wallpaper hanging process will go depends on the type of wallpaper you have. Your hired fitter can paste the wall or the actual paper or perform a peel-and-stick procedure. 


With a paperhanging brush, they can smoothen the paper out, going from the center outwards to remove any creases. Using a level, they will make sure that the strips are properly aligned. If any excess paper is in sight, your specialist can cut it down using a trimming knife. But if you’re getting a pre-pasted wallpaper, the Tasker may need to soak the strips in lukewarm water for a few minutes or according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Then, they can either let it sit for a bit to activate the paste or go straight to placing the paper onto your walls. Who knew how hanging wallpaper can be complex but quick with the right specialist?


Wallpaper repair

The presence of unpleasant rips and punctures, loose and peeling edges, or surfacing air bubbles indicate the expected wear-and-tear. This happens especially with exposure to moisture, humidity, or sharp objects.


Sometimes, a quick repair might be better than a complete wallpaper removal. Your Tasker can add patches covering rips or tears, inject wallpaper adhesives eliminating bubbles, or reglue any loose seams. Tip: Consult your hired expert on how to maintain your new wallpaper’s life.


Wallpaper removal

If it’s your wallpaper’s time to go—especially when molds or the lack of flair is noticeable—the Tasker can expertly replace them. They will use soap and water, a putty knife for scraping off, a stripper solution, or a steamer to help loosen the adhesive.


Wallpaper mural installation

If you neither need a repair nor a removal, you can consider having a mural installed. From small accents to large-scale elements, this process can spice up your room.

We have ordered a 12ft x 8 ft temporary wallpaper mural for the bedroom wall, from Society6 (if you're familiar). It will likely come in 5-6 separate panels, and will require some careful 'matching up' due to the pattern on it. I am not sur eif it is a two- or one-person job, but in the past with these same kinds of wall murals, I have watched someone do it on their own.

I need (already purchased) peel and stick wallpaper installed in my living room, bathroom and bedroom but each room will be a separate service. Spacing out the projects by paycheck.This will be the best financial plan of action for me. Initial quote of $100-$125 is for the bedroom (see pics + measurements below)-it is not large. Bedroom Measurements are: (129.17sq ft) 11.65 ft x 10.97 ft x 11.65 ft x 11.19 ft PLEASE NOTE: 1.) The wall with window on it will only actually require approximately 8.28 ft of coverage. 2) The closet wall has two 3.30ft accordion closet doors so consider the deduction from 11.56 ft for *actual coverage needed on that wall 3.) The third wall has two doors cut out to consider (entry door and bathroom access door) for *approximal coverage actually needed; guesstimating around 5.45 ish ft. If this initial installation in the bedroom goes well, the other two rooms will be guaranteed jobs for the contractor! Thanks so much! - Due date: Flexible
