A tape measure, pencil, level, sharp utility knife (extra blades), smoothing tool, clean cloth or sponge, step ladder, and the adhesive tools recommended in your included instructions (roller, brush, tray).

If the wall is porous, chalky, freshly patched, or unevenly painted, primer helps create a more reliable surface and a cleaner finish. On solid, well painted walls, it is often optional.

Light texture can sometimes work, heavy texture usually shows through and can cause poor adhesion. Smoothing the surface first is the safest path for a premium result.

Use a level to draw a straight vertical reference line, then align your first panel or first drop to that line. Do not follow the corner, corners are rarely perfectly straight.

Turn off power, remove cover plates, hang over the opening, then make small relief cuts and trim carefully. Reinstall cover plates after the wallpaper is set.

Inside corners, keep it neat and do not stretch the material; overlap slightly only if needed for alignment. Outside corners, avoid forcing a single piece around the corner; clean cuts and careful alignment reduce lifting risk.

Work from the center outward with steady, light pressure. Keep your hands and tools clean, and avoid stretching while smoothing.

Small bubbles often relax as the adhesive sets. If a bubble persists, gently lift and resmooth if possible, or carefully work air out toward the nearest edge with light pressure.

Seams usually lift from dust, poor wall prep, or uneven adhesive coverage. Press lightly, clean away any residue, and ensure the seam has even contact without overworking it.

Cut your lengths with the repeat in mind. Dry-align the next length before it goes up, then commit once the match looks right. If the match is off, fix it early; it is harder once the adhesive sets.

Lay panels out in order first, start from a straight reference line, align each seam before smoothing the full panel, then trim edges after everything is placed and sitting flat.

Often yes, but moisture and ventilation matter. Avoid direct splash zones, prep the surface carefully, and keep the room well ventilated during and after installation.

Drying time varies by wall conditions and adhesive; we recommend that to adhesive dry up to 48 hours. Keep airflow normal, avoid heavy humidity, and wait until fully set before wiping or scrubbing. For cleaning, use gentle methods appropriate for the surface finish.

Many wallpapers can be removed, but removal depends on wall prep, paint type, adhesive, and time on the wall. Proper prep at install makes future removal easier and helps protect the wall surface.
