WALLPAPER CARE
How to Care for Your Wallpaper After Installation
The right care routine starts with the instructions for your specific wallcovering.
Keep the product information
Save the label, manufacturer’s care instructions, and any spare material. Different finishes tolerate different cleaning methods. A wallcovering described as washable is not automatically suitable for every cleaner or aggressive scrubbing. Use the manufacturer’s guidance as your reference.
Take a gentle approach
If cleaning is permitted, follow the recommended method and test it in an inconspicuous area first. Avoid adding strong cleaners or abrasive tools unless the product instructions specifically allow them. Natural fibers, specialty finishes, and printed surfaces may require particular care. Ask for clarification when the care information is unclear.
Respond to changes early
If you notice lifting edges, a stain, or signs of moisture, contact your installer and share clear photos. Do not assume more adhesive or a household cleaner will fix the issue. Address any underlying moisture source through the appropriate professional.
