Wallpaper Installation
Paint is not the only way to make your home your own. Adding some personal touches through colors and patterns is easily achieved with high-quality modern wallpaper. American Town Painting offers wallpaper installation in your home or business to make it stand out. Whether you prefer geometric patterns, clean lines, or florals, we have endless wallpaper options to add visual interest to any area.
Modern wallpaper is more durable than the old-fashioned wallpaper you see in your grandma’s home. To enhance its longevity, we utilize all the proper tools and techniques, so you don’t have to worry about constant upkeep and maintenance.
Precision is Key
One of the most important parts of wallpaper installation is making sure it adheres properly. Adhesive and paste are both effective ways to adhere the wallpaper to drywall, previously painted walls, and other surfaces. Proper adhesion will ensure your wallpaper covers any minor imperfections in your walls, creating a pristine finish.
Proper measurements and cuts are also important factors in successful wallpaper installation, so we measure multiple times before cutting to ensure the area is completely covered. The end result should be seamless, with everything lined up just right so that onlookers could never guess it was wallpaper.
At American Town Painting, we use smoother tools and precise strokes to align your wallpaper, remove air bubbles, and create smooth edges, ensuring an elevated and sophisticated appearance. With our precision and finely honed skills, we can take the stress out of wallpaper installation.
Choosing The Right Wallpaper Pattern For Your Home
One of the easiest ways to choose wallpaper is to pick a pattern that is already in your home. This will help the home feel cohesive without looking too busy.
If your home lacks light, you will want to consider wall coverings that bounce light around the given space. Patterns with light colors or iridescent accents can make the space feel more open and airy. Additionally, smooth wallpapers without rough textures can further enhance the reflection of light throughout your home.
If your walls have flaws or holes from previous wall hangings, textured wallpaper can help to hide these. Imperfections are camouflaged with tactile surfaces like grass or string cloth. You can also find wallpaper with foil or vinyl accents. However, textured surfaces can make the room feel smaller, so keep this in mind when determining where to place your wallpaper. If you prefer a flat surface that still covers flaws, layered design patterns can create the illusion of texture.
Benefits Of Professional Wallpaper Installation
Wondering if wallpaper is right for your home? Here are some benefits of having American Town Painting install wallpaper in your home.
Easy To Update
Whenever you want to update the look of a room, changing the wallpaper is an easy way to do so. Modern wallpapers are designed to be easily removable without causing damage to the underlying surface, especially compared to the more permanent options of years past. Installing new wallpaper is typically quicker than painting a room, so you can achieve a refreshed look in a shorter amount of time.
Hiding Imperfections
As previously mentioned, wallpaper can conceal minor imperfections in your walls. Small cracks or uneven surfaces can be improved by installing wallpaper. Patterns or textures are often effective ways to cover raised imperfections that would only be enhanced by paint.
Increase Property Value
Professionally installed wall coverings are just as valuable as any other home remodel. Painting, wallpaper, new fixtures, and other modern elements can increase the value of your home for future homebuyers. All of these additives will enhance the appearance and usefulness of the space, making it more appealing if you ever decide to sell your home.
Personalization
Wallpaper comes in a wide array of designs and colors, showing off your personality to anyone who visits your home. Your design should reflect your taste, preferences, and individual sense of style. Customizable options are also available, so if you don’t find a premade paper you love, you can design your own, creating a look that’s completely unique.
Durability
Maintaining your walls is easier with properly installed wallpaper. Even though wallpaper is fairly easy to remove, it is also resistant to wear and tear. In many cases, it lasts longer than paint and maintains its like-new appearance for years. Some wallpapers are even washable, which makes cleaning your walls much less of a chore.
