Wallpaper Restoration

It’s easy to make the mistake of thinking that old, tattered or faded wallpaper has reached the end of its life. In fact, a lot of owners of listed buildings and period properties make this mistake. However, just because wallpaper has become old or damaged, that doesn’t mean it can’t be refurbished.

At Highly Decorated, we offer a full wallpaper restoration service for designs dating as far back as the late 1800’s.

We’re one of the only companies in the UK offering this service, and are proud to be able to provide such a niche skill to our customers.

Our skilled and experienced team are able to restore almost any wallpaper design, including antique.

Wallpaper Refurbishment

Wallpaper refurbishment is especially important if the property is decorated to reflect a certain era. There are very few companies that offer restoration for wallpaper that comes from the Victorian and Georgian times, but we do!

Despite being time-consuming and fiddly work, we believe that old wallpaper is always worth trying to save; especially if it has important historical value.

Whether your home is a listed historical building or you’re the landlord of a period pub, you’ll want to keep the original features looking good. Over time, the wallpaper may have become damaged, torn, or started to fade. You might think that this means it’s damaged beyond repair, but often, it can be restored.

Old wallpaper refurbishing

Using designs from Lincrusta, we’re able to offer fantastic restorations. Lincrusta is a popular wallpaper design company that offers unique and historically-accurate prints. The designs on offer are made using the same classic prints that the company first used back in the 1800s. These are elegant, glamorous, and most importantly, durable.

In cases where the wallpaper is unable to be restored, we also offer the application of new wallpaper. This can be in the same design as before, or in a new, period-appropriate one. All Lincrusta designs are made from natural materials. They're also created using the same high-quality printing process first implemented a century ago.

In our experience, refurbishing old wallpaper is a task that requires a great deal of skill and experience. That’s why there are so few companies in the UK, and the world, that offer the service.

Like much else, there are DIY tutorials online for wallpaper restoration, but -- also like much else -- nothing compares to the expertise and knowledge of an experienced professional. It’s a task that requires a meticulous level of precision that a trained hand will have, whereas an amateur will likely not.

If you have a refurbishment task that needs completing, get in touch with us. We will come and view your project, make a suggestion based on what we find, and then get to work.

Most old wallpaper designs can be refurbished. We’ve successfully restored wallpaper in various states of decline. However, for those that are sadly no longer salvageable, we can suggest the modern equivalent that will not disrupt the current decor; selecting your new option from Lincrusta’s vast range of designs and styles.
