Wallpapering in Watford & Herts
Feature walls, full rooms and murals hung neatly, and old wallpaper stripped and the walls put right, for homes across Watford, Hertfordshire and North West London.
Wallpaper hanging & removal
Wallpaper that looks right starts with the wall
Wallpaper shows every crack and bump underneath it, so the wall comes first: old paper stripped, damaged plaster repaired, filled and sanded, and lining paper where the surface needs it. Recent jobs include a hallway, stairs and landing in Pinner, stripped and repapered, a mural in a Bushey nursery, and a Watford bedroom with a floral paper above new pink panelling. We strip paper ready for painting too: five layers came off a hallway in Northwood.

What customers say about our wallpapering
Excellent service by The Nelson company. I found Nelson online and contacted him via WA. Very responsive and precise and the delivery was beyond my expectation. We had EDGAR come in to do the wallpaper. It was a complex wall mural along with a very detailed wall paper. Edgar did a beautiful job. We are unable to find any joints on the wall. It looks like a stunning painting. Very professional as well.
Nelson and his team decorated our lounge and stairs. … The standard of finish is excellent for both the painting and wallpapering. Everyone was polite , courteous and friendly and I would have no hesitation in recommending Nelson and his team.
Nelson has just finished a number of rooms in our house - wallpapering, painting and making our awful ceilings look brand new. Always cheerful, very helpful and happy to recommend him to others.
Wallpapering FAQs
Before you book
Useful answers for wallpaper hanging and removal enquiries.
Can you hang murals and patterned wallpaper?
Yes. We hung a mural in a nursery in Bushey and a detailed floral paper above panelling in Watford. Patterned papers are set out before hanging so the pattern lines up and the joins sit neatly.
Can you remove old wallpaper?
Yes, including several layers: five came off one hallway in Northwood. Once it’s off, we repair the walls and seal them, ready for paint or new paper.
Will my walls need lining paper?
Not always. On older or uneven walls, lining paper gives a smoother base and a better finish. We’ll tell you if your walls need it once we’ve seen them.
Can you decorate the rest of the room too?
Yes. We can paint the ceiling, walls, woodwork and any panelling, so the whole room is finished together.
Can you quote from photos?
Yes. Photos or videos can often help us give you an initial estimate. For larger or more detailed jobs, we may arrange a visit before providing the final quote.
