Wallpaper Installation & Removal in Melbourne — Done Neatly, Done Properly
Wallpaper has made a serious comeback in Australian homes. From bold feature wall murals through to subtle textured finishes and elegant pattern work — the right wallpaper in the right space adds a depth and character that paint alone simply can’t replicate. When it’s hung properly it looks incredible and completely transforms a room.
The problem is wallpaper is one of those jobs where the skill of the installer makes all the difference. Misaligned patterns, bubbling, lifting edges, and seams that show up clearly across a wall — these are the results of incorrect paste application, poor surface preparation, or simply not having the experience to handle the material correctly. And on the removal side, old wallpaper stripped without the right technique can leave walls damaged, gouged, and covered in adhesive residue that causes real problems if not properly dealt with before repainting.
At Gur Painting, we handle wallpaper installation and removal as the specialist service it is. Careful surface preparation, correct hanging technique for the wallpaper type, and clean precise results throughout. New installations, feature wall murals, full room wallpapering, or complete removal and wall preparation for painting — we cover it all. Servicing homeowners right across Melbourne and all surrounding suburbs.
Wallpaper Installation & Removal Services
Wallpaper work requires a completely different skill set to painting. The surface needs to be perfectly smooth and properly prepared before anything goes up — any imperfection underneath will show through once the wallpaper is hung. The paste, the technique, and the handling of the material all vary depending on the wallpaper type — and getting any of it wrong shows immediately on a finished wall.
We handle the full scope of wallpaper work — new installations, feature wall murals, full room wallpapering, and complete removal including surface restoration for repainting. Whether you’re updating a single feature wall or transforming multiple rooms throughout the home — we assess the surfaces, recommend the right approach, and deliver a clean precise result throughout.

ABOUT GUR PAINTING
Why Melbourne Homeowners Choose Gur Painting for Wallpaper Installation & Removal
Wallpaper work is unforgiving. Unlike painting where minor imperfections can be touched up or blended in, wallpaper issues are visible from across the room — misaligned patterns, visible seams, bubbling panels, or lifting edges that start peeling within months. Every one of those problems comes back to either poor surface preparation, incorrect paste application, or inexperience handling the specific wallpaper material being used. There are no shortcuts that don’t show up eventually.
On the removal side the risks are just as real. Old wallpaper that’s been on walls for years needs to come off correctly — the right moisture, the right tools, and the right technique to avoid gouging plaster or leaving adhesive residue embedded in the surface. Walls that aren’t properly restored after removal will cause problems with any paint or new wallpaper applied over them. We handle both sides of the job with the same level of care — precise installation that looks immaculate, and thorough removal that leaves walls in genuinely good condition for whatever comes next.

Our Process
Our Approach to Wallpaper Installation & Removal in Melbourne
Whether we’re installing new wallpaper or removing old, every job follows a methodical process that prioritises surface condition and precise execution. Getting either side of this job right takes time and care — and that’s exactly what we bring to every wallpaper project we take on.
Free Quote & Surface Assessment
We visit your home and assess the walls thoroughly — checking surface condition, existing wallpaper type, any damage or adhesive residue present, and what preparation is required before installation or after removal. We discuss wallpaper options, pattern matching requirements, and any feature wall or mural work involved. You get a clear, honest quote covering the full scope of work upfront.
Surface Preparation & Wallpaper Work
Every wall is properly prepared before anything goes up — smoothed, primed, and ready for the specific wallpaper being installed. For removal jobs, old wallpaper is carefully stripped, adhesive residue fully removed, and walls restored and patched before priming and repainting. New installations are hung with precision — correct paste, careful pattern matching, clean seams, and smooth finish throughout.
Final Inspection & Cleanup
Once the wallpaper work is complete we do a thorough inspection with you — checking every panel, seam, and edge across the entire installation. Any imperfections addressed immediately and all materials, paste, and equipment cleared away completely. Your space left clean, tidy, and looking exactly how it should.
