Home » Wallpaper Installation Colorado Springs CO
Colorado Springs is Colorado’s second-largest city — and its residential landscape reflects that scale. The Broadmoor neighborhood offers estate-level homes with detailed architectural finishes; Northgate and Briargate in the north bring newer construction with open floor plans and contemporary interiors; Old Colorado City and Manitou Springs have historic bungalows and Victorian-era properties with original plaster walls and layered histories. No two projects here look the same.
In fall 2024, we completed a grasscloth installation for a homeowner in the Broadmoor area renovating a formal dining room. The walls required full skim coating before hanging — original plaster beneath years of paint had created an uneven surface that would have shown through the natural fiber material without proper prep. The finished result complemented the room’s period architecture and the client’s Thibaut fabric selections throughout.
Colorado Springs sits at over 6,000 feet with a semi-arid climate — dry air, significant UV exposure, and temperature swings between seasons that affect how wallpaper adhesives cure and how materials perform long-term. Homeowners across El Paso County consistently seek out a certified wallpaper installer serving Colorado who can assess surface conditions accurately and recommend the right materials for the local environment — not just execute a hang.

Here’s one of our recent wallpaper installations completed in the Colorado Springs area — a grasscloth wallcovering installed as a full feature wall in a living room interior. The warm taupe natural fiber texture creates a refined, tactile backdrop for a gallery-style art arrangement, complementing the organic ceramics and woven vessels throughout the space. Consistent seam alignment across the natural fiber material ensures the texture reads evenly across the full wall surface. See more of our work in the full project gallery.

Wallpaper installation in Colorado Springs typically ranges from $2 to $8 per square foot for labor, depending on the wallpaper type, wall condition, and project complexity.
For a standard room with smooth drywall and non-woven wallpaper, most Colorado Springs 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.
Key factors that affect pricing in Colorado Springs specifically:
Wall condition. Colorado Springs has significant variation in wall conditions depending on the neighborhood and era of construction. Historic properties in Old Colorado City and the Broadmoor often have original plaster or previously wallpapered surfaces requiring removal and skim coating. Newer construction in Northgate and Briargate sometimes has drywall finished to a lower standard than expected, which requires additional prep before installation. Prep work is quoted 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 Thibaut, Phillip Jeffries, or Farrow & Ball require additional care and expertise, which is reflected in the labor rate.
Room complexity. Estate homes in the Broadmoor and older properties in Manitou Springs frequently feature vaulted ceilings, decorative moldings, angled walls, and irregular room proportions that add time and cost compared to standard rectangular spaces.
At Enjoy The Wall, we provide transparent, upfront quotes after reviewing your wall conditions and wallpaper specifications in person. Contact us for a free consultation and estimate for your Colorado Springs home.
Yes — wallpaper removal is part of our standard workflow, and it’s a common starting point for Colorado Springs projects, particularly in older neighborhoods like Old Colorado City, Manitou Springs, and the historic Broadmoor corridor where previous wallcoverings were applied directly to plaster or unprimed drywall.
Assessment first. Before removal begins, we evaluate the wall substrate and the adhesive type. Original plaster walls in Colorado Springs’ Victorian-era properties require a more conservative approach than modern drywall — too much moisture during removal can soften or crack plaster that’s otherwise in good condition.
Dry vs. wet removal. Depending on the wallpaper type and how it was originally applied, we use dry stripping, steam, or enzyme-based solutions to release the material without damaging the surface underneath. Colorado Springs’ dry climate means older adhesives often become brittle over time, which can actually make removal cleaner than expected — though it varies significantly by property.
Wall repair and prep. After removal, we skim coat, sand, and prime the surface before any new wallpaper goes up. At Enjoy The Wall, skipping this step isn’t an option — an unsealed or uneven surface will cause adhesion problems and visible imperfections regardless of wallpaper quality.
All removal and prep work is quoted upfront. Contact us to schedule a site visit for your Colorado Springs property.
Yes — and Colorado Springs has a growing design community that we work with regularly. The city’s range of property types — from Broadmoor estates requiring spec-grade installation to boutique commercial spaces downtown — makes it an active market for designer and contractor partnerships.
What we bring to the partnership:
Certified installation. Kris A. is a member of the Wallcovering Installers Association (WIA) and the Interior Design Society (IDS). We handle designer wallcoverings from Phillip Jeffries, Thibaut, Osborne & Little, and Farrow & Ball with the precision those materials require — correct adhesive, careful seam placement, pattern alignment that holds across large surfaces.
Reliable project execution. We show up when scheduled, communicate clearly throughout the project, and don’t leave jobs half-finished. For designers managing multiple trades on a renovation timeline, predictability matters as much as installation quality.
Documentation and reporting. We assess and document wall conditions before work begins and flag any issues — surface irregularities, moisture, previous adhesive residue — before they affect the installation. Designers and GCs are kept informed rather than surprised.
If you’re a designer or contractor working in Colorado Springs or the Pikes Peak region, reach out to discuss your project timeline and specifications.
Colorado Springs’ architectural diversity — Victorian bungalows, mid-century ranches, contemporary new builds, and Broadmoor-style estates — means there’s no single answer, but some principles hold across the market.
For historic and period properties in Old Colorado City, Manitou Springs, and the older Broadmoor corridor: traditional patterns — florals, damasks, wide stripes, and toile — complement the architectural details and feel intentional rather than applied. Brands like Farrow & Ball, Thibaut, and Cole & Son offer options that read historically grounded without being overly literal. Grasscloth works well in dining rooms and studies where warmth and texture are the goal.
For newer construction in Northgate, Briargate, and Wolf Ranch: large-scale botanical prints, geometric non-wovens, and textured wallcoverings in neutral palettes tend to work well with open floor plans and contemporary finishes. Brands like Serena & Lily, Graham & Brown, and York offer strong options at accessible price points.
For commercial and hospitality spaces along the downtown corridor and Powers Boulevard: Type II commercial-grade vinyl or durable non-woven wallcoverings that hold up under cleaning and high traffic are the practical choice. Feature walls with bold murals or large-format prints photograph well and create memorable brand environments.
In Kris A.’s experience, the most common mistake Colorado Springs homeowners make is selecting wallpaper at the store without accounting for ceiling height and room proportions. A pattern that looks balanced on a sample board can feel overwhelming in a room with 9-foot ceilings — or disappear entirely in a space with 12-foot vaults. We always recommend reviewing full-width samples in the actual room before purchasing.
Yes — commercial projects are a meaningful part of our work in Colorado Springs. The city’s growing hospitality sector, downtown office renovations, and expanding retail corridor along Powers Boulevard create consistent demand for commercial-grade wallcovering installation.
What commercial installation in Colorado Springs involves:
Material selection for durability. Commercial spaces require wallcoverings that hold up under cleaning, traffic, and daily wear. We typically recommend Type II vinyl or commercial-grade non-woven wallcoverings for high-traffic areas — lobbies, corridors, dining rooms, and retail floors. For accent features in lower-traffic areas, grasscloth, textured non-wovens, and designer wallcoverings from brands like Phillip Jeffries or Marburg create distinctive brand environments.
Scheduling around business operations. We coordinate installations during off-hours, low-traffic periods, or phased closures to minimize disruption. For multi-room or multi-phase commercial projects, we build a realistic schedule upfront and stick to it.
Feature walls that perform. Many Colorado Springs hospitality and retail clients invest in wallpaper specifically for visual impact — lobby feature walls, branded accent surfaces, and dining room installations that photograph well and create a memorable guest experience. We treat those installations with the same precision as high-end residential work.
At Enjoy The Wall, commercial projects receive the same upfront assessment, transparent quoting, and quality standard as residential. Contact us to discuss your Colorado Springs commercial project.
