Wallpaper installation: costs and options
Budget wallpaper, paste, preparation and hanging costs.
BEFORE YOU BEGIN
What shapes the cost?
Pattern matching, wall condition, paper type and wastage.
Compare identical scopes before choosing a contractor. Ask which preparatory work, materials, disposal, GST and site access requirements the quote includes.

BETTER QUESTIONS
Ask before you accept a quote.
- Is paper included or installation only?
- Is GST included, and is the price fixed or estimated?
- Are removal, disposal, access and making-good included?
- What changes would trigger extra costs, and who approves them?
- What is the warranty on products and workmanship?
THE NEXT STEP
Compare the same job, not just the price.
Record itemised inclusions from at least two quotes, then evaluate differences in quality, warranty, timing and exclusions.
