How to Hang Wallpaper on a Wall with Built-Ins: A Guide by Apex Roofing and Construction in Maryland

Hanging wallpaper on a wall with built-ins can be a bit more challenging than hanging wallpaper on a flat wall. You need to be careful not to damage the built-ins and ensure a seamless finish. Here's a guide from Apex Roofing and Construction in Maryland to help you hang wallpaper on a wall with built-ins.

  1. Prepare the wall Remove any existing wallpaper, sand down any rough spots, and clean the wall. Measure the wall and make sure to have enough wallpaper to complete the job.

  2. Measure the built-ins Measure the built-ins, including shelves, cabinets, and other fixtures, to determine where to cut the wallpaper. Make sure to take into account any gaps or seams between the built-ins and the wall.

  3. Cut the wallpaper Cut the wallpaper to fit around the built-ins, making sure to leave enough extra wallpaper to wrap around the sides of the fixtures. Be sure to use a sharp blade and make clean cuts.

  4. Apply the adhesive Apply the adhesive to the back of the wallpaper, following the manufacturer's instructions. Make sure the adhesive is evenly spread across the entire surface.

  5. Hang the wallpaper Start at the top of the wall and carefully hang the wallpaper around the built-ins, making sure to smooth out any bubbles or wrinkles. Use a smoothing tool to push the wallpaper into place.

  6. Trim the excess wallpaper Use a sharp blade to carefully trim the excess wallpaper around the built-ins. Be careful not to damage the fixtures or the wallpaper.

  7. Finish the edges Fold the wallpaper over the edges of the built-ins and use a brush or roller to apply the adhesive to the back. Smooth out any wrinkles or bubbles and trim any excess wallpaper.
