How to Install Vinyl Wallpaper in Denver Metro Area Homes

Updated June 2025

Vinyl wallpaper is a popular choice for Colorado homeowners looking to upgrade their interiors with something stylish, durable, and easy to maintain.

For durable, moisture-resistant materials like vinyl, many homeowners rely on experienced wallpaper installation professionals in the Denver metro area to ensure proper adhesion and long-term performance.

Whether you live in Denver, Aurora, or Boulder, understanding the installation process helps ensure great results โ€” especially when working with expert installers like EnjoyTheWall, with outcomes influenced by the wallcovering materials and finishes selected for your project.

๐Ÿงพ Types of Vinyl Wallpaper

Each type of vinyl wallpaper offers unique benefits depending on your space and design goals:

โœ… Peel and Stick Vinyl Wallpaper

Perfect for renters or quick refreshes โ€” no paste needed. Just peel, stick, and smooth.

โœ… Vinyl Grasscloth Wallpaper

Looks like natural fibers but is easier to clean and more moisture-resistant. Great for kitchens and bathrooms.

โœ… 3D Vinyl Wallpaper

Adds depth and dimension. Popular for accent walls or modern spaces in Lakewood and Centennial.

๐Ÿ› ๏ธ Tools Youโ€™ll Need for Installation

To properly install vinyl wallpaper, prepare the following tools:

  • Wallpaper (enough rolls with matched pattern)

  • Wallpaper paste or adhesive (if not peel-and-stick)

  • Smoothing brush or plastic squeegee

  • Measuring tape and level

  • Utility knife or wallpaper trimmer

  • Adhesive brush or roller

  • Ladder or step stool

๐Ÿ“Œ Step-by-Step Vinyl Wallpaper Installation

  • Prepare the wall
    Clean, smooth, and dry the surface. Remove old wallpaper or patch imperfections.

  • Cut the wallpaper
    Measure the height of your wall and cut each strip with a bit of excess for trimming.

  • Apply the adhesive
    If using traditional vinyl wallpaper, apply paste to the back or directly on the wall (check manufacturer instructions).

  • Hang the wallpaper
    Start from a corner or plumb line. Smooth with a squeegee from the center outward to remove air bubbles.

  • Trim the edges
    Use a sharp utility knife to cut off excess at the ceiling, floor, or corners.

  • Clean up
    Wipe any adhesive from the wallpaper surface. Let it dry completely before rearranging furniture.

๐Ÿงผ How to Remove Vinyl Wallpaper

โœ… For Heavy Vinyl Wallpaper

  • Peel off the top vinyl layer

  • Soak the backing paper with warm water

  • Gently scrape using a wallpaper scraper

  • Clean the wall of glue residue

โœ… For Drywall

  • Score the wallpaper with a scoring tool

  • Apply water or remover
