The short answer
We install wallpaper throughout Lauderhill, matching the product to the room's moisture level and the wall's condition. Expect a walkthrough, honest notes on prep, a clean installation day and advice on keeping the paper in good shape.
Lauderhill sits about six miles west of our Fort Lauderdale base, in the heart of central Broward County, and its housing mix keeps our work varied. On one street we may paper a bedroom in a ranch-style block house; on the next, a stairwell in a two-story townhome or a living room in a mid-rise condo in ZIP 33313. True Wallpaper Installation hangs every common type of wallcovering here, from classic pasted papers to modern non-wovens and peel-and-stick. This page focuses on how a Lauderhill project actually runs, what you can do to get ready, and how we keep paper flat and tight in a climate that never fully dries out.
Start with a walkthrough
Every project begins with a look at the rooms involved. We measure each wall, note doors, windows, vents and built-ins, and check the surface by hand and with a light held flat against it to reveal texture and old repairs. On walls facing outdoors we take a moisture reading, because a block wall that sweats on humid nights can loosen adhesive over time.
From there we explain what the wall needs. A smooth, painted interior wall in good shape may only need cleaning and primer. A wall with heavy spray texture, peeling paint or old paper hiding under the latex will take more work, and we tell you that before any paper is ordered.
Choosing a wallcovering that suits the space
We are happy to install whatever you have picked, and we will give a straight opinion if a product is likely to struggle in a certain room.
- Non-woven: breathable, stable and strippable; a strong default for bedrooms and living areas
- Vinyl-coated or solid vinyl: scrubbable and moisture-tolerant for baths, kitchens and laundry areas
- Traditional paper: rich printing but more delicate and sensitive to humidity during hanging
- Peel-and-stick: easy to change, good for rentals, best on smooth walls away from strong sun
- Natural fibers and grasscloth: beautiful texture, reserved for dry, steadily cooled rooms
How to prepare your home
A little preparation on your side keeps the day efficient. Clear shelves, art and fragile items from the walls being papered, and move small furniture out of the room if you can. Larger pieces can be pulled to the center. Let us know about any pets so doors can stay closed while paste and blades are in use.
If you live in a gated community or a condo building, share the gate code or front-desk instructions in advance, and reserve a service elevator if the building requires it. We bring drop cloths, ladders, tables and all tools, and we only need access to a sink for cleanup.
What we do on installation day
After surface prep and priming are complete, we plan the layout so the pattern is balanced across each wall and the final, mismatched seam ends up in the least noticeable corner, often behind a door. Strips are cut, pasted or activated, and hung one at a time with the pattern lined up at eye level. Seams are rolled flat, edges are trimmed with a fresh blade, and paste is cleaned off the face, trim and ceiling.
In townhomes with tall stair walls, we set up a stable platform before hanging. Long strips are heavier and harder to control, and a safe setup is what keeps those seams straight from top to bottom.
Aftercare in a humid climate
Lauderhill's weather is warm and humid all year, with the heaviest rain and moisture from May through October. Fresh paste needs a stable environment to cure, so keep the AC running, windows closed and bathroom fans on for the first couple of days. Small bubbles that appear in the first day often flatten as the paper dries; if any remain after that, let us know.
Over the long term, steady cooling is the single most important thing you can do. During hurricane season, from June through November, an extended outage can raise indoor humidity, and it is worth checking seams once power returns.
