Woodwork Painting & Wallpapering FAQs

Frequently asked questions about woodwork restoration, spraying, and designer wallpaper hanging in Edinburgh.

Hanging typically runs £25–£45 per roll for labour, depending on pattern match and wall condition. A feature wall usually falls between £150 and £350; a full room between £400 and £900. Wallpaper removal and wall preparation are priced separately, as older tenement walls often need lining first.

Often, yes — particularly in older Edinburgh properties. Lining paper gives an even surface, prevents the pattern distorting over uneven plaster, and stops old wall colour showing through lighter papers. We'll tell you at the home visit whether your walls need it rather than papering over a problem.

We strip it back properly rather than papering over it. In older properties, stripping frequently reveals damp, mould or failing plaster. If we find it, we stop, photograph it, send you a written cost for the remedial work, and wait for your approval before going further.

Yes. Varnished or previously stained woodwork needs sanding, degreasing and a bonding primer before topcoat — skipping any of those steps is why painted woodwork peels. Skirtings, architraves, doors, window surrounds and tenement shutters all get the same preparation.

Woodwork in a single room takes 1–2 days. A full flat — skirtings, architraves, doors, window surrounds and stairs — typically runs 4–7 working days including preparation and two topcoats. Original Victorian woodwork with layers of old paint takes longer.

Yes. We fill, splice or replace damaged sections before painting, and can replicate original mouldings in period properties. Rotten window sills and damaged sash surrounds are common in Edinburgh tenements — we repair rather than replace wherever the timber allows.

Most clients choose and buy their own paper, since it's a personal decision. We'll tell you exactly how many rolls to order, including pattern-repeat wastage, so you don't get caught short mid-job or over-order by three rolls. We can also order on your behalf if you prefer.
