Providing a parking space
One of the first things to consider is parking. Ensure that there is a convenient parking spot for your installer. Wallpaper installers typically have a lot of heavy tools and materials that are cumbersome to carry long distances. Providing a nearby parking spot will help them transport their equipment more easily and start the job promptly.

Preparing the room
For accent walls

For entire rooms
In both scenarios, keep in mind that the installer will need space to prepare the wallpaper strips. They may set up a worktable or use the floor, so having a clear, open area is essential.
Managing drafts

Wall preparation
- If your walls are not being prepared by the installers themselves (like those from EnjoyTheWall), ensure that they are primed and ready beforehand.
- After applying primer, wait at least an hour before installation.
- If the walls have been painted, allow at least two weeks for the paint to cure before applying wallpaper. Freshly painted walls that haven’t been primed properly can cause issues, such as the wallpaper adhesive dissolving the paint, leading to peeling or bubbling.

Access to water
Installers will need access to water for cleaning tools and washing cloths multiple times throughout the installation. Ensure there is a nearby water source that they can use freely.
