2. Material Specs & Technical Preparation

​

Q: What wall preparation is required before installing specialty wallcoverings?

​

A: Substrates must be clean, dry, structurally sound, and free of dust, grease, or peeling paint. Standard drywall should be finished to a smooth Level 4 or Level 5 state. We treat and prime walls with commercial-grade primers to guarantee proper adhesion and allow for clean material removal in the future.

​

Q: Will panel seams be visible after installation?

​

A: Seam visibility depends heavily on the selected material, texture, and pattern. While non-woven wallpapers and dense graphic prints conceal seams almost entirely, delicate textiles, hand-woven grasscloths, and dark-toned grounds feature inherent panel shading variations that are part of the material's aesthetic. We review material characteristics with you prior to prep and hanging.

​

Q: Can you install over existing wallpaper?

​

A: Stripping existing wallcoverings and restoring the underlying substrate is always recommended to ensure long-term durability. However, depending on site conditions and commercial project constraints, specialized priming techniques may allow for overlay installations on a case-by-case basis.

​

Q: Can wallcoverings be installed on ceilings?

​

A: Yes. Ceiling installations are an excellent feature element, but they require precise structural evaluation and high-tack adhesives due to gravity and surface tension. We inspect ceiling conditions and review material weight specifications during the initial assessment.

 

Q: How long does the adhesive take to cure completely?

​

A: While most commercial wallcoverings dry and set within 24 to 48 hours, high-humidity environments or dense, non-breathable materials (such as heavy Type II vinyls or metallic foils) may take up to 5–7 days to fully cure.
