How to put wallpaper up
Preparing the wall
Before wallpapering, the wall must be in good condition, , clean and smooth. The preparation of the surface to be glued is very important. if there was already wallpaper on the wall, it is likely that your wall is in good condition underneath. The existing wallpaper will have to be completely removed first. If your wall is not smooth, it will be necessary to fill the holes with a suitable product, or to sand your wall. Be patient as it is worth taking care with this step.
Ready to put up
Check the straightness of the wall with a spirit level or plumb line. Measure the area to be covered with the wallpaper and mark the wall if necessary. Cut the paper if it is too big, either from the top or the bottom, by cutting off the excess with a cutter and a metal ruler (keep a safety margin of 1 or 2 cm).
Glue the trickier parts of the wall with the brush: around the door, top and bottom of the wall, corners... Glue the first metre of the wall with the roller. Place the starting edge of your wallpaper vertically on the wall. Then unroll all the wallpaper or lay the strips edge to edge, gluing the wall metre by metre as you go. Use the glue brush to flatten and remove air bubbles. Once all the paper is in place, cut off the excess material with a cutter if necessary. Wipe off any excess glue with a damp sponge. Your wallpaper is up ?.
