Wallpapering in Darlaston — feature walls, full rooms, lining paper and stripping. Patterns matched, seams flat, walls prepared first.
Papering an old Darlaston wall is mostly about what is under it. Walls that have been papered four times need stripping and lining before anything decorative goes up, or every flaw underneath shows through the new paper within a month.
Old paper off, walls washed down, filled and sized. The bit that decides whether the new paper stays flat.
On uneven old plaster, lining paper first is the difference between a good job and a lumpy one.
Drops planned so the pattern runs true across corners and around the chimney breast.
One wall, done well, is often all a room needs — and it costs a fraction of the full job.

On the older Darlaston plaster, usually yes. It costs a little more and it is the difference between paper that lies flat and paper that shows every hollow in the wall behind it.
Yes, and we price it in. Stripping is unpredictable — sometimes it comes off in sheets, sometimes it fights — so we quote it as part of the job rather than as an extra later.
Usually half a day once the wall is prepared. If it needs stripping and lining first, allow a day and a half in total.
