SERVICES
When you’re investing in fine wallcoverings, you deserve an installer who specializes in the craft. Wallpaper isn’t a side job for me, it’s my sole focus and passion. I trained at the only accredited wallpaper installation school in the country and learned under a master paperhanger with over 60 years of experience. That foundation shaped the way I approach every project: with unmatched care, technical skill, and an eye for flawless detail.

Selecting Wallpaper
From colorways to patterns to brands, choosing the right wallpaper can feel overwhelming. I’ll help you narrow the options and find the perfect fit for your space and style.
-
Free Wallpaper Estimate
Estimates can be done virtually or in person. I’ll measure your space, calculate how many rolls you’ll need, and provide a clear breakdown of installation costs so that there are no surprises.
-
Preparation + Installation
Every project starts with proper prep. I sand, clean, seal, and prime surfaces to ensure a flawless finish before carefully installing each panel with precision.

Clean Up
I treat your home with the same care I’d want in mine. All work areas are covered during installation, and I leave the space neat, vacuumed, and ready to enjoy.
How it Works
Transforming a room with wallpaper is exciting, and the process should feel seamless from start to finish. At Well Papered, every step is designed with you in mind. From the first conversation to the final clean-up, the goal is to make the experience simple, stress-free, and tailored to your unique space, so the only thing you need to focus on is enjoying your breathtaking new walls.
Discovery Meeting
Every project begins with a conversation. Through a call or email, you share your ideas, goals, and inspiration for the space. In this step, I’m all about listening and understanding so I can get the vision and that sets us up for all the remaining steps.
See the Space
Whenever possible, an in-
person visit helps ensure every detail is covered. Measurements are taken, wall textures are evaluated, and the overall condition of the space is assessed whether it’s new construction or a remodel. Any issues that might affect installation, such as textured walls, poor paint quality, mold, or repairs, are noted. Photos are taken and features like doors, windows, sinks, and trim are carefully documented.
Estimate
After the visit, you receive a complimentary written estimate, typically within a few days. The estimate outlines installation costs, the number of wallpaper rolls needed, and an estimated timeline. It’s important to note that installation costs are separate from the purchase of wallpaper. If wallpaper hasn’t been chosen yet, the estimate will still include installation costs, and once selections are finalized, a follow-up confirms the exact number of rolls to order.
Schedule
When the estimate is
approved, an installation date is set. (My favorite part!) For many residential projects, no deposit is required. For larger jobs, deposit requirements are clearly outlined in the estimate.
Wall Paper
On installation day, the
work begins with careful preparation of both the walls and the wallpaper itself. Every panel is installed with precision, and depending on the size of the project, the process may take a single day or several. The goal is always to deliver a flawless finish that transforms the space.
Payment
Once the installation is
complete and the area has been cleaned and tidied, final payment is due. You have a fresh, polished space that feels as beautiful as it looks.
I cannot recommend Well Papered enough. We chose a wallpaper with a very intricate pattern for our family room, which has several big windows and an awkward archway. We also had her install a heavy grasscloth on our coffered ceiling. I knew it was a challenging job, but Laura handled it with absolute precision and artistry. Every line matches up perfectly, and her attention to detail is just incredible. Laura knows what she’s talking about! If you want a job done right, especially with a difficult installation, call Well Papered!

To ensure a beautiful, long-lasting result, I exclusively install high-quality, traditional wallpaper. My commitment is to protect the integrity of your walls, and peel-and-stick products—which are designed for temporary DIY use—can cause significant damage to paint and drywall.
Because I stand by the quality and longevity of every project, I cannot work with these materials. However, many popular designs are also available in traditional paper, and I am always happy to help you source a high-quality alternative for your project.
