FAQs

What is the pattern repeat of this wallpaper?

This wallpaper features an extra-long pattern repeat, designed to create a more expansive and seamless visual effect across large wall areas.

Is this wallpaper suitable for a kitchen or bathroom?

While durable for general interior use, it is best suited for low-moisture environments. For kitchens and bathrooms, consider using a vinyl-coated or washable wallpaper specifically designed for these areas.

How much wallpaper do I need to order?

Measure the width and height of your walls. Calculate the square footage and divide by the coverage per roll, accounting for the pattern repeat. It's recommended to order slightly more than calculated to account for mistakes or future repairs.

Can I hang this wallpaper over existing wallpaper?

It is generally recommended to remove old wallpaper first for the best adhesion and finish. Hanging over existing wallpaper can lead to adhesion problems and an uneven surface, especially with a textured design like this.

What type of adhesive should I use?

Use a high-quality, pre-mixed or powder adhesive specifically formulated for heavyweight or patterned wallpapers. Always follow the adhesive manufacturer's instructions.

What are the dimensions of a single roll?

Please refer to the product's packaging or retailer specifications for the exact dimensions (width and length) of each roll.

Troubleshooting

Bubbles or creases appear during application.

Use a wallpaper brush or smoother to gently push air bubbles towards the edge. If creases are significant, you may need to lift and reapply the section carefully.

Pattern does not align correctly.

Ensure you are using the correct pattern match. Double-check the start of each panel and adjust alignment as needed. The long repeat requires extra attention.

Wallpaper is difficult to remove.

Use a steamer or a dedicated wallpaper remover solution to soften the adhesive. Work slowly and carefully to avoid damaging the wall underneath.

Colour appears different than expected.

Lighting conditions can affect how colours appear. View a sample in the intended room at different times of day. Ensure you have the correct product code and colourway.
