The process through an Interior Designer

Many wallpaper projects require the expertise of a professional installer. 

When collaborating directly with an interior designer, the process generally follows these steps:

​

• Consultation between Designer and Client: The designer helps the client select the perfect wallpaper for their space.

​

• Consultation between Designer and Installer: The designer discusses the amount of material needed and installation costs with the installer.

​

• Hiring and Scheduling the Installer: The designer retains the installer and arranges a convenient time for the installation.

​

• Communication between Installer and Client: The installer coordinates with the client to address specific needs such as timeframes, access to the space, ensuring wallpaper is correctly labeled for the right room, setting up space for installation, and considerations for pets or small children.

​

• Considerations for Wall Covering: Factors such as room temperature, humidity, ventilation, the appropriate primer/sealer, adhesives, and the need for liner or bridging paper are taken into account.

​

• Considerations for Wall Preparation: Any necessary hardware removal (e.g., light fixtures or vanities), access to utilities like water, electricity, and lighting, wall repairs, primer application, and potential use of liner paper or muslin are considered. Proper drying times are also factored in.

​

• Considerations for Installation: The installer ensures proper access, safety, and the optimal arrangement of the wallpaper to maintain pattern symmetry. They also follow manufacturer recommendations for installation techniques, adhesive specifications, and ensure the correct tools and equipment are used for the job.
