Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about wallpaper installation in Dallas.

How much does wallpaper installation cost in Dallas? +

Wallpaper installation costs in Dallas typically range from $3 to $9 per square foot, depending on the complexity of the project, wall condition, and wallpaper material. Factors that affect pricing include wall preparation requirements (plaster repair, skim-coating), the type of wallpaper (standard vinyl vs. delicate silk), room accessibility, and pattern matching complexity. We provide free detailed estimates for every project with no hidden fees — what we quote is what you pay.

How long does wallpaper installation take? +

A single room typically takes 1–2 days, including wall preparation and installation. Larger projects or rooms requiring extensive prep work (such as wallpaper removal, plaster repair, or skim-coating) may take 3–5 days. Complete home installations are usually completed within 1–2 weeks. We provide a detailed timeline during your free consultation.

Do you remove old wallpaper before installing new? +

Yes, we offer complete wallpaper removal services. In most cases, old wallpaper must be removed and walls properly prepared before new wallpaper can be installed. Installing over existing wallpaper can lead to bubbling, peeling, and an uneven finish. We use commercial-grade steamers and eco-friendly solvents to remove old paper and adhesive residue, then repair and prime the walls for a perfect foundation.

What types of wallpaper do you install? +

We install all types of wallpaper and wall coverings, including vinyl, grasscloth, silk, non-woven, peel-and-stick, fabric-backed, custom digital murals, metallic foils, and commercial-grade Type II wall coverings. We work with any material from any manufacturer or retailer.

Do you work with plaster walls in older Dallas homes? +

Absolutely. We specialize in historic home wallpaper installation and have extensive experience with plaster walls common in Carrollton, Denton, and older Dallas neighborhoods. We use alkali-resistant primers, professional skim-coating, and gentle preparation methods that protect original plaster.

Are you licensed and insured? +

Yes, Texas Star Wallpaper Installation is fully licensed, bonded, and insured. We carry comprehensive general liability insurance and workers' compensation coverage on every project. We are happy to provide proof of insurance upon request.

What areas do you serve? +

We serve the entire Dallas-Fort Worth metroplex, including Fort Worth, Arlington, Plano, Garland, Irving, McKinney, Frisco, Mesquite, Carrollton, Denton, and surrounding communities. Call us at (469) 817-3834 to confirm service in your area.

How do I prepare my room for wallpaper installation? +

We recommend clearing furniture 3–4 feet from the walls and removing wall decorations, nails, picture hooks, and switch plate covers. Our team handles all wall preparation including cleaning, priming, and repairing imperfections. We lay down protective drop cloths to safeguard your floors.

Do you offer a warranty on your work? +

Yes, we stand behind every installation with a 100% satisfaction guarantee. If any issues arise related to our workmanship — such as seam separation, bubbling, or adhesion failure — we will return to address them at no additional cost.

Can you help me choose the right wallpaper? +

While we are professional installers rather than retailers, we provide expert guidance on material selection based on your room's conditions, traffic level, moisture exposure, and the hot, humid Texas climate. We can recommend materials and connect you with trusted suppliers.
