Wallpapers last for years and are cost-effective –

When Wallpapers are installed or maintained properly, it can last for at least 5 to 6 years approx. Nilaya’s wallpapers and coverings are sold by the roll, each one is around 57 sq feet. It can range from Rs 2000/- to Rs 35000/- per roll. Also, there’s a normal installation cost that includes materials and labour which is applied to the cost.

The basic cost would be higher than painting; the length of the wall depends on how much you need; what surface preparation is needed and what you prefer. Though, it doesn’t need regular touch-ups but needs a certain level of maintenance.

Wallpapers bring flexibility –

Now that we know it will last for a long time, but what if you need to change it? Let’s assume that you live in a rented apartment and want to decorate with something that will last but is also easily reversible. Wallpapers are perfect in such cases because they can be removed without damaging the wall or residue and dirt left behind. If after removal you want to re-apply wallpaper or repaint the walls, you’ll have to prep up the surface again.

Surface prep needs to be considered –

When it comes to different surfaces, wallpaper is quite forgiving. It can be used on multiple materials like gypsum board, concrete, wood panelling, masonry, new and old plaster, tile and laminate. What you should keep in mind is proper prep-up work on the walls with POP, putty, sealer, glue and sometimes lining paper.

Consider room traffic and humidity level:

Wallpapers can be used in almost any room of the house, but you must take some considerations. Like, vinyl-coated wallpaper is extremely durable and easy to clean. It’s treated to repel moisture and dirt so consider this for certain areas of your home that see high traffic. It can be used in kitchens and bathrooms but avoid walls that have direct exposure to moisture like the shower area or a badly ventilated bathroom.

Humidity doesn’t do much damage to the wallpaper, in case if you have used a proper sealer and glue. For instance, steam from the shower daily can make the paper peel off but you shouldn’t have any problems if you live in a humid place. However, unrepaired leakages will cause havoc.

Proper installation takes time:

If you are ready to install wallpaper at your place on your own then consider having expert guidance by your side. We highly recommend installation from the experts as it has a proper process. The wall surface needs to be smooth, clean and devoid of any leakages or moisture. This may also need sanding, priming and installing a lining paper. The drying time takes around 24 to 48 hours but depending on the conditions, it can take up to two weeks to set properly.

Maintenance is quite simple:

The easiest way to maintain the designer wallpaper is to dry vacuum it with the soft brush attachment. Smoothly wiping the walls with a soft, dry cloth will also work. If you do want to use water, ensure that the wallpaper is the washable kind and use a slightly damp sponge and extremely diluted mild soap solution. Remove all traces of the soap with a slightly damp cloth before drying completely with a terry cloth.
