Complete Wallpaper Fitting Services
Professional wallpaper fitters delivering flawless pattern matching, invisible seams, and bubble-free application across all property types in Sunderland.
Wallpaper Hanging & Installation
Precise strip placement for perfect alignment. Large-repeat pattern calculations. Invisible seams where strips meet.
Wallpaper Removal & Stripping
Professional removal using steamers and scrapers, stripping all layers to bare plaster. Woodchip wallpaper—prevalent in SR1’s Hendon and Millfield areas from 1970s-80s council property modernization—removed completely without damage.
Wall Preparation for Wallpaper
Fill cracks and holes. Sand rough surfaces smooth. Apply primers for optimal adhesion. Lining paper for damaged walls. Victorian solid brick walls common in SR2 and SR6 often have slight undulations—we use breathable fillers and moisture-resistant primers suited to older properties.
Feature Wall Installation
Ideal locations: behind beds in bedrooms, fireplace walls in living rooms, stairwells and hallways. Bold patterns suit period properties with generous proportions. Crisp edges where wallpaper meets paint make features stand out.
Period Property Expertise
SR2’s Victorian properties—particularly along Ashbrooke Road, Ashbrooke Terrace, and The Esplanade—feature lath and plaster walls requiring gentle handling. We work regularly with decorative cornicing, ceiling roses, and picture rails typical of these 1880s-1900s homes.
Modern Builds & Semi-Detached Properties
Smooth plasterboard walls in Doxford Park and Washington’s open-plan layouts require different approaches than period homes. SR6 Semi-Detached Properties: Roker and Fulwell’s 3-bedroom semi-detached homes—predominantly built 1920s-1950s—feature lower ceilings (8-9 feet) and simpler architectural details than Victorian terraces.
Living Rooms & Dining Rooms
Expert installation around fireplaces, bay windows, and alcoves typical in Sunderland’s terraced properties. SR6’s Roker Park Terrace and Roker Avenue feature predominantly 4-bedroom Victorian terraces—built 1890s—with deep alcoves flanking chimney breasts, perfect for feature wallpaper.
Commercial Spaces
Businesses across Sunderland trust Foxglove Decor’s wallpaper fitters for professional installation in shops, offices, cafes, and restaurants. Commercial projects require durable wallpapers handling high traffic and rapid installation minimizing business disruption.
