How much does wallpaper installation cost?
Wallpaper. You may shudder thinking back to the 90’s where it was all repetitive patterns and big statement colours. Here is a little flashback for you..
Thankfully, we have come along way and wallpaper is back, baby! These days most people go for a statement piece that can really bring some life to a room which looks a lot more aesthetically pleasing then the above.
You have two costs to consider when installing wallpaper: the cost of the wallpaper and the installation. Although it can range in price depending on the quality, brand name and material.
There is a huge amount of possibilities in colours, patterns and textures that can completely transform the wall however there is also a big range of cost depending on exactly the wallpaper you are after - the most popular types being vinyl coated wallpaper and solid vinyl wallpaper. Vinyl is one of the most common types of wallpaper because it’s much easier to maintain.
Another popular option is the grass cloth look which generally consists of woven grasses such as silk, bamboo, silk, arrowroot or jute. The grasses are attached to the backing which is made from rice paper. It can really create a great look when done although it’s best to be mindful of little hands touching this constantly as it’s a bit more fragile.
So you have chosen your wallpaper, what’s next?
We come in once you have chosen you wallpaper and we can finalise your space with the installation.
