The Benefits of Wallpaper:

  • Make a statement with unique designs and texture options – Wallpaper provides an extensive range of designs, patterns, textures, and colours that can transform a room’s aesthetic. Whether it’s a bold, eye-catching print or a subtle textured finish, the options are nearly endless. This allows homeowners to express their personal style and create a unique atmosphere in their spaces.
  • Durability – High-quality wallpapers are durable and long-lasting. They are designed to withstand wear and tear, making them a cost-effective choice in the long run. Unlike paint, which can chip and fade over time, good wallpaper can maintain its appearance for many years, especially if properly cared for. For tips on maintaining and cleaning your wallpaper, check out our blog.
  • Cover imperfections – Walls with imperfections such as cracks or uneven surfaces can be easily concealed with wallpaper. It provides a smooth and flawless finish, offering an effective way to cover up blemishes that might be difficult to fix with just paint.
  • Extra layer of insulation and soundproofing – Some wallpapers offer additional benefits beyond aesthetics. Thicker, textured wallpapers can provide a minor insulating layer, helping to retain heat in the room. Additionally, they can absorb and muffle sounds to a certain extent, contributing to a quieter indoor environment.

Marshels redecorated three rooms in my awkward flat to a really high standard. Well organised, good communication, helpful advice on finishes, reassuringly experienced in dealing with the various surfaces and minor surprises. Decorators rightly proud of their work, soldiering on through a mad heatwave as well.

I would just like to say how fantastic Marshels of Farnham have been, from the initial phone call to Adam, to the completed job. Dave and his team, have not only done an amazing job in our office reception area and meeting rooms, but you would never have known they had been there, the clean up is spotless. They were professional, polite and the paint work is to a very high standard. I would highly recommend Dave and his team.

Steve was exceptional, fast and detailed when I contacted him for our large kitchen project which needed painting in a short timeline. Our painters Shane, Mark and Drew were really lovely chaps. They worked around us brilliantly (no easy feat with 3 kids!), provided a finish to a high standard, were agile as I adjusted things at times and completed the project beautifully and on time. We have discovered a wider network of services within Marshels which we would now be very happy to use. And certainly will be using them for more forthcoming projects we have coming up. Shane, Mark and Drew you were all fabulous and lots of fun to be around. Thanks for all of your efforts to get things just how I like them. We really appreciate it!

I embarked upon a new commission: to design another cinema interior for clients of longstanding some twelve years on from my previous cinema project for them, but this time I was the one resourcing the various operations. I wanted to realise what was to be a highly specialised design; that of an authentic but scaled-to-size 1930's art-deco cinema/theatre mini auditorium within a basement room. In addition to other trades' operations for the art-deco light fittings, curtains and fabrics, carpets and bespoke furniture/upholsterers, the core of the whole operation was given over to the one business that I could see would be capable of working with me right the way through. I cannot begin to give enough praise to the artisan levels of skill-sets possessed among the personnel that work for Mr. Jamie Elstow of Marshels. At no stage of the project did anyone question what I was wanting to achieve, and my schematic drawings were not only followed to the letter, but additional ideas were inputted from the contractors that were indicative of their full understanding and appreciation of the look and feel of the design through their positive contribution and enthusiasm. What was created being a benchmark example of the golden age of cinema/theatre architecture that speaks volumes of their combined efforts and attentiveness. As such, I fully intend to be repeating this with any further upcoming projects with this business that delivers. Carl Beckwith - Audio Visual Consultant - Designer.

How does our wallpaper hanging work?

If you’re unsure on how our wallpaper hanging service looks:

  1. Start with prep

    To ensure a flawless finish, our specialists will clean, repair, smooth, and remove any dust and debris from your wall surface.

  2. Measure & Slice

    Next we’ll measure the wall height and cut the wallpaper according, leaving a few extra inches at the top and bottom for adjustments.

  3. Wallpaper Adhesive

    Our experts will mix and activate the adhesive and apply to the back of the wallpaper, all according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Allowing time to book wallpaper.

  4. Hang & Trim

    Carefully, we’ll align the wallpaper with precision, smoothing out any air bubbles or wrinkles as we go. Once in place, we’ll expertly trim the excess paper from the edges for a seamless fit.

  5. Dry & Clean-up

    With patience, we let the adhesive set and the wallpaper dry completely. Then, we’ll remove any protective coverings and clean up any remaining debris, leaving behind a beautifully transformed space.

Do I need to prepare my walls before hanging wallpaper?

Yes, proper wall preparation is essential for a successful installation. This involves repairing any damage, cleaning the surface, and applying a primer. These steps help to ensure the wallpaper adheres correctly and looks its best.

For detailed tips on the Do’s and Don’t of Hanging Wallpaper, have a look at our latest blog post. If you choose our wallpaper hanging service, we’ll handle all the wall preparation for you.

Can wallpaper be installed over existing wallpaper?

While it’s possible to wallpaper over existing wallpaper, we advise assessing its condition first. If the wallpaper is in good shape, securely adhered with no peeling or bubbles. It may be suitable for overlaying. However, if it’s damaged, removing it is best to ensure a smooth surface for the new wallpaper.

Although overlaying can save time, it may lead to long-term issues if the existing wallpaper starts to peel. For optimal results, we’d recommend you remove the wallpaper, starting with a clean, smooth surface. Our team provides professional wallpaper removal services to help you achieve the best results. For more information on Can You Wallpaper Over Wallpaper?, check out our blog post.

How long does it take to wallpaper a room?

The time required to install wallpaper depends on the size and complexity of the room, as well as the type of wallpaper used. For an average-sized room, installation usually takes a day or two. Larger or more intricate projects may take longer. We can provide a more accurate estimate based on your specific requirements.

Can I install wallpaper myself, or should I hire a professional?

Yes, it is possible to fit wallpaper yourself. However, hiring a professional ensures the job is done correctly and efficiently. Our specialist hangers have the skills and tools to handle all aspects of wallpapering, from surface preparation to finishing touches.

Do wallpaper installers provide wallpaper removal services as well?

Yes, we do! Our team can assist you with removing old wallpaper, making it easier to prepare your walls for a fresh new look. Get in touch for more information about our wallpaper removal and installation services.
