We handle all wall preparation as part of our comprehensive service. This includes:
- Cleaning walls to remove dust and debris

The only thing we ask is that you move furniture away from the walls and remove any hanging items.
Arizona's desert climate does present unique considerations for wallpaper installation, but our team is experienced in handling them:
- Low humidity: We use adhesives that perform well in dry conditions and may adjust application techniques
- Temperature fluctuations: We schedule installations during optimal conditions and ensure proper adhesive curing
- Sun exposure: We recommend UV-resistant wallpapers for sun-facing walls
With proper installation techniques and material selection, wallpaper performs excellently in Phoenix homes.
Yes! We regularly install wallpaper in Phoenix bathrooms. For humid areas, we recommend:
- Vinyl or vinyl-coated wallpapers
- Moisture-resistant adhesives
- Proper ventilation (exhaust fan)
- Avoiding direct water contact areas

Both options work! Here's how each approach works:
- You purchase: Buy from any retailer or designer showroom. We'll verify quantity and quality before installation.
- We help source: We work with local Phoenix design showrooms and can recommend suppliers based on your style and budget.
Tip: Always order 10-15% extra wallpaper to account for pattern matching and potential repairs. We can help calculate the exact amount needed.
Proper maintenance extends the life of your wallpaper:
- Dusting: Use a soft brush or vacuum with brush attachment monthly
- Cleaning: For vinyl, use a damp cloth with mild soap. For delicate papers, dry cleaning only.
- Avoid: Harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners, excessive moisture
- Repairs: Keep leftover wallpaper for patching if needed
