We hang wallpaper across West Hampstead (NW6), in everything from Victorian terraces, period conversion flats and purpose-built mansion blocks. Whether it is a single feature wall or a whole room papered top to bottom, you get careful wall preparation, true pattern matching and a fixed price agreed before the first drop goes up.
West Hampstead is busy, well-connected and popular with young professionals, with high tenant turnover around West End Lane. The local housing stock — Victorian terraces, period conversion flats and purpose-built mansion blocks — typically has bay-fronted facades, picture rails and cornicing in older rooms, plus plainer plastered walls in the purpose-built blocks. We work on properties right across the area, including streets near West End Lane.
What wallpaper hanging in West Hampstead usually involves
Wallpaper Hanging in West Hampstead covers feature walls and full rooms, paste-the-wall and traditional papers and lining paper and bare-plaster bases — matched to the victorian terraces found across NW6 and the way these homes are built.
The jobs we are asked for most here, like end-of-tenancy flat repaints and single-room and hallway redecoration, all start with proper prep and a fixed written price, so a victorian terraces gets a finish that lasts rather than a quick once-over.
Wallpaper Hanging for period and Victorian homes in West Hampstead
The plaster in Camden's older terraces is rarely flat. Walls bow, lath-and-plaster sounds hollow in patches and old skim has often been papered over more than once. We strip back to a sound surface, fill and cross-line where the wall demands it, then hang the finish paper over a stable base so the pattern sits straight and the seams stay closed.
Wallpaper Hanging for West Hampstead landlords and letting agents
Landlords use a hung feature wall to lift a tired letting without a full redecoration. We work to a booked date, leave clean butt seams that will not lift at the edges, and can line awkward walls so emulsion goes on flat for the next tenant changeover.
How we do wallpaper hanging in West Hampstead
-
Free site visit and fixed quote
We come and look at the wall, check the plaster, measure the drops and count the rolls against the pattern repeat. You get one fixed price in writing, with no day rates and nothing added later.
-
Strip and make good
Old paper is steamed or soaked off, loose plaster is cut back, cracks are filled and the wall is sanded and sized so paste grips evenly rather than soaking straight into bare plaster.
-
Line where the wall needs it
On uneven Victorian plaster we cross-line first — hanging lining paper horizontally under the finish paper — so bumps are bridged and the top paper has a smooth, consistent surface to sit on.
-
Hang and match the pattern
We plumb the first drop, then work outward matching the repeat drop by drop. Paste-the-wall or traditional paste-the-paper, we book the paper properly, brush out the air and trim clean lines top and bottom.
-
Roll the seams and tidy up
Every seam is rolled flat, paste is wiped from the surface before it dries, and we take the offcuts and packaging away. We walk the room with you in good light before we sign it off.

Wallpaper Hanging in West Hampstead — common questions
Can you hang wallpaper over uneven old plaster?
Yes. Bowed and patchy plaster is normal in Camden's period homes. We fill and sand what we can and cross-line the wall with lining paper underneath so the finish paper sits flat. On badly cracked walls we will tell you honestly if a re-skim is the better route first.
Do you supply the wallpaper or do I?
Most clients choose and buy their own paper so they get exactly the colour and pattern they want. We are happy to advise on how many rolls you need for the pattern repeat, where to source it, and whether paste-the-wall or a traditional paper suits the job.
Can you strip existing wallpaper as well?
Yes. We strip old paper, clear the residue, make good the wall and prepare the surface before anything new goes up. Stripping is included in the quote so the price you are given covers the full job, not just the hanging.
How much does wallpaper hanging cost in Camden?
Wallpapering is quoted as a fixed price after we measure up, never a day rate, and the quote includes stripping, preparation and hanging. The final price depends on the wall's condition, whether cross-lining is needed and the pattern repeat — large repeats waste more paper and take longer to match. We give you the price before any work starts.
