FAQ

We always advise removing old wallpaper first.

Your walls should be smooth, clean, dry, dust-free, and a neutral colour. If the wall has stains or discolouration clean them off so they won’t show through the wallpaper. Fill and sand all dents or cracks in the plaster. Apply a layer of primer if the wall surface is highly absorbent.

The batch number on the roll indicates the wallpaper’s printing series. If you’re going to be using multiple rolls, check that they’re all from the same printing series. This is because minor colour and pattern differences can sometimes occur in different batches. So remember to make sure that all the rolls have the same batch number before you start wallpapering.

You can also order samples of a variety of Wallpowers. However, this sample will contain a cut-out of the image. Not the whole picture. But the sample will give you an accurate idea of the different colours and the texture of the Wallpower. 

You can order a sample of most of our wallpapers. Each wallpaper sample costs €1.95, including the cost of postage. At present, it is only possible to order one sample for each wallpaper design. It could be because a sample of that product is not available. The order button only appears on the product page of the item number for which samples are available.

The amount of wallpaper you need depends on how you intend to use it. The wallpaper calculator is a handy guide and gives a good indication of the number of wallpaper rolls you need. Want to double check? Visit one of our sales outlets for expert advice.
