Expert Wallpaper Installation in Wilmington, NC
Signs a Wallpaper Job Was Hung in a Hurry
Designer paper is expensive before anyone touches it, and the installation decides whether your wall looks like the sample. A rushed job leaves mistakes you notice every time you walk past. Most can't be fixed in place. The strip comes down, and often you are buying another roll from the same run to replace it. Hanging paper looks easy in a tutorial. Carrying a pattern repeat around a room whose walls are not quite plumb is a different job.
- 01Seams you can see from across the room
- 02A pattern that doesn't line up at the seam
- 03Motifs that drift downhill as they move around the room
- 04Inside corners that are wrapped, wrinkled or bubbled
- 05Edges lifting near the ceiling, tub or vanity
- 06Paste marks dried on the face of the paper
How Our Wallpaper Installation Works
From the first conversation to the finished room.
0102Confirm Paper and Book
If your paper isn't ordered, we tell you how many rolls the pattern repeat requires. Then we book the install, usually two to three weeks out.
03Install Day
You get notice before the crew arrives. They prep the walls, remove any old paper, set a plumb line and hang. The average job is done in a day or less.
04Walkthrough and Cleanup
We do a final walkthrough with you and leave the room clean. Your 1-year workmanship guarantee starts that day.

Why Wilmington Calls Intracoastal for Wallpaper Installation
We'll Provide A Quote in Minutes
Some installers take a month to send an estimate. Ours comes back promptly, and we are usually booked two to three weeks out, so you can plan the room around a real date.
Our Crew, NO Contractors
Everyone who hangs your paper is a W-2 employee, never a subcontractor. You see the same faces, and they're covered by our $2M general liability and workers' comp.
Corners Cut, Never Wrapped
We're a second-generation wallpaper company and members of the Wallpaper Installers Association. Hand-cut corners and a level repeat are how the trade is supposed to be done.
You Know Exactly When We're Coming
We answer the phone, and you get notice before the crew heads your way. The plan you hear at booking is the plan we follow on install day.
A Year of Coverage
If something we installed lifts, opens or fails within a year, we come back, look at it and fix it. After that, anything traced directly to our work is still our concern.
How Much Does Wallpaper Installation Cost in Wilmington?
The fastest way to an exact number is our project estimate. Installation is priced on the job, and a few things move it more than anything else:
Room size and wall height
which set the number of strips
The paper itself
grasscloth, vinyl and unpasted designer papers each hang differently
Pattern repeat
since large repeats add cuts and waste
Wall condition
including removing old paper and repairing the surface
Corners, cutouts and access
a powder room with a toilet, vanity and mirror has more cuts per square foot than a bedroom wall, and stairwells or ceilings need extra setup
The quote you get is the quote we honor.
With no surprises at the end. It covers the crew's labor and cleanup. It does not include the paper itself unless you source it through us.
