Im no proffesional in decorating but have decorated all my rooms in all my houses for last 20 odd years and tbh i dont go to extreme of these guys and mine still looks like a pro finish im just amazed they didnt put a sheet on carpet to stop paste getting on it
Thank you for a simple explanation & demonstration without a lot of wasted time on over-explaining or silliness! Appreciate it! Good point below about explaining proper prep of surfaces though - maybe you have another video covering that.
So glad I found this video, you used language that makes sense to us novice wallpaper hanging bods, got to the point, used tools sold to us novices and made the video funny, cheers chaps 👌🏻👊.
There’s many how to do it videos out there, less than 15 seconds into most of them I’m bored and falling asleep, I love your instructional videos I don’t care if you call it a level line or a plumb line ,unscrew or not unscrew a outlet socket cover. I watch all your videos because the instructional part is very clear on how to do it ,more importantly it’s always a flawless outcome the final look that’s important and you guys are entertaining as hell Way to go guys awesome videos.
Ive recently moved into my own first flat ive got a pile of wallpaper and I keep putting it off because I'm not confident enough to do it because I didn't know how thanks lads also im confused about the paste I did what it said to do but its to thin also I cant get rid of lumps so I've bought more paste
This video is the best. It has the most useful information presented in a quick fun and entertaining way. Well done lads and thanks for making it accurate and fun. More than a few tips that are only obvious if you've done it before :)
Try hanging it straight from the get-go as a whole. The more you make adjustments, the trickier the next panel will be. And getting creases at just the second panel shows exactly that
Can you put the glue on the wall even if on the box it says to put it on the paper? Or is it a different kind of glue? Sometimes shrinking of the paper is mentioned. Why does that happen?
No, stick to the instructions. Shrinkage occurs as the paper dries for various reasons. Over pasting, very soaking, wrong type of paste, and access heat are the main ones
Is there a benefit with booking the wallpaper prior or does this particular wallpaper not need it? Or would booking be more appropriate if trying to wallpaper over textured walls?
Really loving the content, but something which should be so simple can turn into an absolute nightmare. To give you a little background I’m in the process of renovating my house from top to bottom and when it came to using both lining paper over painted walls it’s imperative to make sure if the surface is porous you need to seal the walls using Zinzeer Guardz as if you don’t especially by a radiator the sees will come apart. If you using a contract matt emulsion or those terrible dulux emulsion paints from B&Q then seal the wall prior to using lining paper or wall paper. If on the other hand your using a vinyl Matt emulsion it should be fine to paste directly on top without sealing. It’s something to do with how much resin they add to the paint. Hope that helps someone out
You can't cut all of them in advance when there is a patten that goes between drops..... Well you can but you need to know the patten repeat length value and add that on top off the 100mm you are adding trim value.
How do I do a wall with a window?downstairs toilet, hardly even a wall to be honest because it has the bog on it as well. I’ve bought to rolls of paper, correct batches but can’t get my head around the underside part of the top of the window
What if you’re wallpapering the wall next to it as well? Would you want to cut at the corner crease or not? Am I making sense? Thanks for any advice you can provide
DO NOT go around the corner like this! Your drop will no longer be level which means the rest of your drops will also not be level. You have to trim the drop in the internal corner with a couple of mils overlap and save the rest of the drop cos once that’s done you will hang the rest of it on the next wall using the level and overlapping the previous edge a couple of millimeters. The pattern, if there is one, might have a tiny bit missing but it won’t be very noticeable.
lining paper would be advised if the surface wall is not perfectly flat and has cracks or dips and also if you were using a thin non textured wallpaper that wouldn't really hide any small imprefections on the wall and also adds another layer of insulation to the house, if the wall has any larger bumps or dips, it is advised to fill and sand accordingly then use a lining paper if not completely smooth.
it's NOT a level line! It is a plumb line.....and by the way....you unscrew the socket slightly and tuck it inside. The same goes for any light switch anything else is just poor
Spot on. Poor practice not tucking the paper behind the sockets. Also working towards the window, a definite no. Always work away from the light source or your joints will cast a shadow.
Why would you start with the center if you're planning on trimming the edges? Surely you'd just start at the edge? Also you're wiping down the skirting boards with a damp cloth but you don't have any dust sheets down to catch the water or paste. 😂😂
🤦♀️ i have literally just asked you questions already.. ( the first timer 😂 🤯) But another , hhow would you paper behind the radiator ? Cut so much off or take a whole strip all the way down ? The radiator is on a main wall...
Same process, do all your matching on the ground first, cut everything to length and number each drop.Also it's good practise to work away from sources of natural light...hides the joints better. Sockets and switches -loosen them off and tuck a few mm of paper behind. For paste the paper rolls size your walls..that means painting a watered down solution of paste on the wall and letting it dry, the pasted rolls will activate the size and make it easier to slide into position
Plumb line, not level line, also mention that it's not it's not a pattern paper, that's why you can cut them all the same, and you would need a papering table to cut thee lengths

Glad you found it helpful, we appreciate your support 😊
Great video. Straight to the point. The jealous comments in this video are pathetic.
😊👏🏼
I agree
You can hang it straight off the roll,ready mixed paste are generally stronger and more cost efficient. I could go on,use a roller.
Very easy, thanks! I thought I would need to cover the carpet, to protect it from the dripping adhesive, but clearly this won't be necessary ;-)
Glad it helped!
Thanks for putting a smile on my face today.
This is exactly what I was looking for!
I appreciate how much effort you put into these videos.
I appreciate that!
They are not doing it for nothing. They get paid from you tube.
Genuinely good instructions, as well as entertaining cant wait to blow my wages on wall papering haha

This is the best video out of all the others
That scraper cut is genius thanks
Well explained and easy to understand, great job!
Thank you!
This video made wallpaper installation look so easy. Can't wait to try it!
i am now ready to wallpaper thank you
Silly billies 😊 I dig it. I like the video, love that you’re having fun together doing your job. Nice work
Thank you 😁
A very useful video because I am about to do the job.
Guys, it's comical as the day is long.
So much wrong I can't begin.
It doesn't matter though you're both great entertainment
Can't wait for next one.
Good tips. Thanks. Got to do some wallpapering this week.
Glad it was helpful! 😊
Covering the carpet near the wall is always helpful. Good video
Great video! Thanks! Love to share a pint or six with you guys! From across the pond.
Thanks mate appreciate it 😊💪🏼
This was so relaxing to watch.
Nice paper, easy match.

Thank you too!
Great video again lads
Thanks mate 💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼
Nice work Phil u aswell Brad, I love wallpapering ❤
Thanks! 😁
Excellent ❤
😊🙏🏼
Nice one
Thanks 🔥
How do you come up with these ideas? Awesome!
By doing a bit of research and following what real decorators do. It's good practice. Always do your 'homework'
‘Easy way to wallpaper’ not too.. That one’s free on me lads😉👍
why not cover the carpet before you start pasting?
I really thank you so much
😊👏🏼
Woof...!! Bearded tattooed gorgeous tradies !! Yeaaaah
Excellent guide, nice one!
What's the humming at 5:10?
Nice 1
What is the problem to unscrew the socket and put paper behind ? Looks better
Where did you buy the wallpaper?
What about checking the batch numbers to make sure you have the same rolls that match ?
Good shout our bad 👍🏼
Because it's common sense that's why he's not mentioned it so stop picking faults at him you helmet and get a job
Great!
Hope you found it helpful 😊
Can you put the glue on the wall even if on the box it says to put it on the paper? Or is it a different kind of glue? Sometimes shrinking of the paper is mentioned. Why does that happen?
No, stick to the instructions.
Shrinkage occurs as the paper dries for various reasons. Over pasting, very soaking, wrong type of paste, and access heat are the main ones
Couple of Herbert's 😂
Is there a benefit with booking the wallpaper prior or does this particular wallpaper not need it? Or would booking be more appropriate if trying to wallpaper over textured walls?
Very good.
Wallpapering is a job I find annoying, and I lose patience. I don't know how people do it for a living.
Cowboy 🤠
Sure thing 👍🏼
Could you use like a flat, straight edge like a ruler or something to smooth and get the bubbles out?
Just a bit risky you may catch the paper and rip it
Does this work for pattern wallpaper, and if you had to do all 4 walls?
Tuck paper behind sockets. Nice work tho 👌
So how did you cut the last drop flush with the wall edge?
How long do you leave the paste on the wall before you stick the wallpaper up ?
Can be done immediately
Would this be same for paste the paper,
Yes but you need to let the paper relax before putting it on the wall 😊

Thanks some great info there 😁😁
@@homeimprovements your welcome. I just don’t want anyone to go through the same nightmare I went through. LOL
If the wall is already painted before I guess it would be OK?
You can't cut all of them in advance when there is a patten that goes between drops..... Well you can but you need to know the patten repeat length value and add that on top off the 100mm you are adding trim value.
Yes you can, you work with 2 rolls of paper at a time, even when there is a drop to the pattern.
@hozzer68 assuming you need 2 rolls or you aren't on your last roll.
Then you can't.
If you know the pattern repeat you can always do it.
You would also benefit from a table...decorators often cut the whole room in one hit
Is there a reason to not take switch plates off before papering and reinstall plate when done? Just curious.
Our sockets don’t normally have face plates it’s the whole outlet and unless competent shouldn’t be touched so we show this method to keep it safe 😊
Proper decoraters ease the plug of the wall
You need to see how you cut at the very top of the wallpaper
Nice wallpaper, where can i get some? Does it have a name?
B&q not sure on name 😞
@homeimprovements can you use this method on any paste,m
Please a scraper,use an appropriate straight edge. And what about the other side the paste will be dry on the other side i give up.
Do you not need to over lap the paper to allow for shrinking ?
Nooooooo..... especially as that type of paper barely shrinks
How do I do a wall with a window?downstairs toilet, hardly even a wall to be honest because it has the bog on it as well. I’ve bought to rolls of paper, correct batches but can’t get my head around the underside part of the top of the window
What if you’re wallpapering the wall next to it as well? Would you want to cut at the corner crease or not? Am I making sense? Thanks for any advice you can provide
Crease and go around the corner in one 😊😊
Yeah providing other wall is level,which 9 times out of ten it ain’t 🙄
DO NOT go around the corner like this! Your drop will no longer be level which means the rest of your drops will also not be level. You have to trim the drop in the internal corner with a couple of mils overlap and save the rest of the drop cos once that’s done you will hang the rest of it on the next wall using the level and overlapping the previous edge a couple of millimeters.

Cut the last piece by an inch over on the table
That one’s free on me lads
How about lining paper? Is it really needed?
lining paper would be advised if the surface wall is not perfectly flat and has cracks or dips and also if you were using a thin non textured wallpaper that wouldn't really hide any small imprefections on the wall and also adds another layer of insulation to the house, if the wall has any larger bumps or dips, it is advised to fill and sand accordingly then use a lining paper if not completely smooth.
it's NOT a level line! It is a plumb line.....and by the way....you unscrew the socket slightly and tuck it inside. The same goes for any light switch anything else is just poor
That’s a expert analysis, where is your videos?
Spot on. Poor practice not tucking the paper behind the sockets. Also working towards the window, a definite no. Always work away from the light source or your joints will cast a shadow.
@@jamiedoyle7625he doesn’t make videos, he hangs wallpaper clearly
@@jamiedoyle7625 he doesn't need videos because he has common sense! Unlike your comment.
This video is for homeowner DIY wallpaper hangers not pros so most people would cut around the socket because most people 'Do It' themselves.
Why would you start with the center if you're planning on trimming the edges? Surely you'd just start at the edge? Also you're wiping down the skirting boards with a damp cloth but you don't have any dust sheets down to catch the water or paste. 😂😂
when have you seen a wall edge that's perfectly plumb at 90°, they never are hency why you start in the center or slightly off center
Woulda liked to see the final 30 seconds of cutting
Thought avenged sevenfold had started a painting and decorating business for a second.
Can u do ghis with regular paste and paper,mmm
No
💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼👏🏼
🤦♀️ i have literally just asked you questions already.. ( the first timer 😂 🤯)
But another , hhow would you paper behind the radiator ? Cut so much off or take a whole strip all the way down ? The radiator is on a main wall...
If you don’t want to have it removed just tuck as much as you can behind 😊😊
Please how can i be part of you guys.
I need new challenge 😮
You can use a roller to paste the wall 😢
Oh dear the carpet😬
What was the wallpaper you were hanging?
B&q not sure on name 😊
Why start in the middle of the wall ?
My walls are textured will this work. 😢
Can you use any paste for any wallpaper, generally speaking? I got rifle paper company and I’m not sure what paste to buy 🙃
Not sure on that tbh 🤔
@@homeimprovements thanks for the honesty!🥰 I did some googling and I think I got one that will work well….we’ll see!😂😂
Maybe get a professional to install. Rifle paper is stunning wallpaper but isn’t it a bit expensive to DIY?
@@36paris Actually I already did it and it turned out fabulous!💗 Thanks though!:)
Undo the socket and pull it away from the wall
Will this ruin my wall if i take it out?
No 😊
Thanks
Show us how to do it with pattern paper please,that would be interesting 😂
Same process, do all your matching on the ground first, cut everything to length and number each drop.Also it's good practise to work away from sources of natural light...hides the joints better. Sockets and switches -loosen them off and tuck a few mm of paper behind.

One question why some people adhesive the wall and wallpaper?
Probably to size it or aid 'slip'
Plumb line, not level line, also mention that it's not it's not a pattern paper, that's why you can cut them all the same, and you would need a papering table to cut thee lengths

Beavis and Butthead
Plumb line is a vertical line. A level line is horizontal get it right you cowboys
Knew what we meant tho clearly
You could have not cut them put use straight from the roll.
Entertainment value 9/10, decorating 2/10
I’ll take it 🤣
Come on man, use a roller to put that paste on!
I would have done half the wall already
Cant you roll the paste on?
Sure can
It’s a bit daft to cut all you lengths if the pattern in the paper is large. You might find you can’t match the pattern?
You match it and cut on the table first
Electriconcuted 🤣🤣🤣
🤣🤣
Bet u guys turned up on horses hahaha as a pro decorator i would never do it the way you cowboys do
Wow your amazing
