Wallpaper hanging in Rusholme

Feature wall (one wall, plain or small repeat) starts at from £129 and standard room (four walls) is from £349. The price is set by the wall area, the pattern repeat and how much preparation the surface needs and fixed in writing before we travel. Rates are identical across M14 — postcode never changes the figure.

90% of Rusholme bookings are offered a same or next-day slot. Send photos and the details before midday and there is usually someone with you that afternoon, with the visit length agreed up front.

Almost always, with the right method. Local walls are old solid brick behind a soft lime skim, with the odd blocked-up chimney breast that swallows a fixing if it is not scanned first, so the substrate is scanned and tested first and the fixing chosen to suit. A standard Rusholme job takes around 165 minutes.

We do everything that can be done, photograph the problem with the part reference and tell you exactly what is needed. Returning to finish carries no second call-out charge in Rusholme.

On older or patched plaster, usually yes. It evens the surface, stops the finish paper telegraphing every imperfection and gives a far better result under both paper and paint. That holds across M14 at one fixed price.

Send us the wall dimensions and the pattern repeat and we will work it out, adding the usual allowance. Ordering from the same batch matters — shades shift between print runs. The same answer applies to every Rusholme booking.

Most Rusholme homes have much-patched painted plaster and plasterboard repairs across converted lets, with old paper edges and filler still on the wall. Before the first drop we do the prep that substrate needs: old paper steamed off in full, edges scraped back, patch filler applied and the wall sized — a fast, single-visit prep that suits a tenancy turnaround. Lining is quoted where it genuinely improves the finish rather than as a default extra, and we tell you on the survey either way.

Typical here is 2.5–2.8m in the older converted stock, with the front bedrooms usually the tall ones. Roll count is wall width divided by roll width, then drops per roll set by your pattern repeat — a 52cm-wide, 10.05m roll with a 64cm offset repeat usually yields three usable drops in Rusholme. We calculate it on the survey and give you the number before you buy.

Condensation from high occupancy and drying laundry indoors, so mould treatment before papering is quoted as standard on external-wall bedrooms. We meter-test any suspect wall on the visit and will not paper over an active problem — paper hung on a damp wall lifts at the seams within weeks, and the repaper costs more than the fix.
