Home » Wallpaper installation Arvada CO
Arvada offers a mix of mid-century homes and modern townhouses, each with its own wall conditions and design goals. In Spring 2025, we helped a family near Olde Town create a bold floral accent wall in their dining room using high-end non-woven wallpaper.
Because Arvada homes often have older drywall and varying humidity levels, proper surface preparation is essential. Many homeowners rely on Denver metro area wallpaper services to handle these conditions correctly.
Our team delivers professional results with careful prep, precise pattern alignment, and a smooth, bubble-free finish built to last, with outcomes influenced by the type of wallpaper and surface conditions involved.
✅ Certified and trusted: Kris A., our lead installer, is a member of the Wallcovering Installers Association (WIA) and the Interior Design Society (IDS) — bringing professional-grade precision to every Arvada project.
✅ Local knowledge: We understand Arvada’s housing stock — from mid-century drywall in Olde Town to newer construction in Candelas and Whisper Creek — and prep every surface accordingly.
✅ Designer-ready: We collaborate regularly with interior designers and architects across the Denver metro area, matching installation quality to high-end wallcovering specifications.
✅ Clean and reliable: We work on your schedule, protect your space, and leave nothing behind except a flawless wall.

Here’s one of our recent wallpaper installations completed in the Arvada area — a steel blue geometric accent wall in a dining room, featuring an intersecting diamond and star pattern in delicate white lines. The precise repeating grid required exact vertical alignment from floor to ceiling to keep the geometry reading correctly across the full wall width. Dark oval dining table, cream upholstered chairs, and a cascading glass chandelier set the finish standard the installation needed to match. See more of our work in the full project gallery.

Wallpaper installation in Arvada typically ranges from $2 to $8 per square foot for labor, depending on the wallpaper type, wall condition, and project complexity.
For a standard bedroom with smooth drywall and non-woven wallpaper, most Arvada homeowners budget between $400 and $900 for installation labor. Larger rooms, pattern-matching wallpapers, or surfaces requiring significant prep work will fall toward the higher end of that range.
Key factors that affect pricing in Arvada specifically:
Wall condition. Many Arvada homes — particularly mid-century properties near Olde Town — have older drywall that requires priming, skim coating, or minor repairs before installation can begin. This prep work is essential for a lasting result and is priced separately from installation labor.
Wallpaper type. Standard vinyl and non-woven papers are the most straightforward to install. Grasscloth, silk, and designer wallcoverings from brands like Phillip Jeffries or Thibaut require additional care and expertise, which is reflected in the labor rate.
Room complexity. Rooms with vaulted ceilings, angled walls, fireplaces, or built-ins take longer and cost more than standard rectangular spaces.
At Enjoy The Wall, we provide transparent, upfront quotes after reviewing your wall conditions and wallpaper specifications in person. There are no surprises — just an honest assessment and a clear price before any work begins.

Yes — wallpaper removal is one of our core services, and we handle it regularly across Arvada and the Denver metro area before any new installation begins.
Proper removal is not simply peeling paper off a wall. Done incorrectly, it damages drywall, leaves adhesive residue, and creates an uneven surface that will show through your new wallpaper — no matter how premium the material.
What our removal process includes:
Assessment first. Before we begin, we identify what type of wallpaper is on your walls — vinyl-coated, fabric-backed, peel-and-stick, or older paste-applied paper — as each requires a different removal approach.
Safe removal techniques. We use professional scoring tools, steam, and enzyme-based solutions to release adhesive without gouging or saturating your drywall — a common mistake that leads to costly repairs.
Wall prep after removal. Once the wallpaper is off, we assess the surface condition. In many Arvada homes — especially properties built before 1990 — walls were not properly primed before original wallpaper was applied. This means the drywall paper facing can tear during removal and require skim coating or patching before new wallpaper can go up.
A surface ready for installation. We don’t hand off a damaged wall and call it done. Our removal service ends with a wall that’s clean, smooth, and properly primed — ready for whatever comes next.
If you’re unsure whether your walls need removal or can be papered over, we’ll assess that during your free consultation.
Yes — and this is a significant part of what we do. A substantial portion of our projects in Arvada and across the Denver metro area come directly through referrals from interior designers, architects, and general contractors who need a installation partner they can trust on high-end projects.
Working with interior designers.
When a designer specifies a Phillip Jeffries grasscloth, a Thibaut scenic mural, or a Farrow & Ball specialty wallcovering for a client’s home, the installation has to match the standard of the material. A misaligned seam or poorly prepped wall undermines the entire design intent — and reflects on the designer, not just the installer.
We understand pattern repeat management, seam placement strategy, and how to handle delicate materials that won’t tolerate mistakes. Designers who work with us know the result will look exactly as specified.
Working with general contractors.
We integrate cleanly into active construction and renovation schedules. We show up when we say we will, coordinate with other trades, and complete our scope without creating problems for the rest of the project timeline.
For contractors managing luxury residential builds or commercial fit-outs in Arvada and the surrounding Denver metro area, reliable subcontractors are everything. We treat every project — regardless of size — with the same level of care and professionalism.

Arvada has two very distinct housing personalities. In older neighborhoods like Olde Town, Alta Vista, and Allendale — where 1940s–1970s ranch-style and split-level homes dominate — classic patterns, botanical prints, and textured wallcoverings like grasscloth work beautifully and complement the architectural character of the home.
In newer developments like Candelas, Leyden Rock, and Ralston Valley — where contemporary open-plan homes with high ceilings and mountain views are the norm — large-format geometric patterns, subtle textures, and designer wallcoverings from brands like Thibaut or Schumacher create dramatic feature walls without overpowering the space.
During your consultation, we look at your home’s architecture, natural light, and existing finishes before making any recommendation. The right wallpaper is always specific to the space — not just a trend.
Yes, and new construction comes with its own set of considerations. Newly built homes in communities like Candelas or Leyden Rock often have drywall that hasn’t fully cured, or surfaces that were finished to paint-grade standard rather than wallpaper-grade. Installing wallpaper directly on these surfaces without proper preparation leads to adhesion problems and visible imperfections over time.
We assess every new construction surface before installation begins and prime accordingly — ensuring your wallpaper performs as well five years from now as it does on day one.
