Georgetown sits at 8,519 feet in Clear Creek Canyon — one of Colorado’s best-preserved Victorian mining towns, with a historic district that contains some of the most intact 19th-century architecture in the state. The homes here range from authentic Victorian and Queen Anne properties on Sixth Street to mountain cabins and newer residences on the edges of town. It’s a small community with a disproportionately high concentration of historic architectural character, and the interiors of Georgetown homes reward finishes that match that level of care.
In fall 2024, we completed a full powder room installation in a Georgetown property — a dark charcoal metallic grasscloth covering all four walls of a compact luxury bathroom, paired with dual hand-blown glass pendants and a continuous marble vanity surface. The material’s horizontal fiber texture catches light at different angles throughout the day, creating depth and visual movement that a painted surface couldn’t achieve. Natural fiber wallcoverings in moisture-adjacent spaces require careful edge sealing and precise seam placement to hold reliably at Georgetown’s elevation.
Georgetown homeowners working on historic and luxury properties consistently seek out a certified wallpaper installer serving Colorado’s mountain communities who can handle luxury materials, coordinate with high-end renovation finishes, and work in architecturally sensitive spaces where the surrounding context sets an uncompromising standard.

Here’s one of our recent wallpaper installations completed in the Georgetown area — a dark charcoal metallic grasscloth installed throughout a luxury powder room, covering all four walls with horizontal fiber texture that shifts in depth and tone as the light moves through the space. Two hand-blown glass pendant lights and a continuous marble vanity surface set the finish standard. Precise seam placement and full edge sealing at the vanity and floor transitions ensured long-term adhesion in the moisture-adjacent environment. See more of our work in the full project gallery.

Wallpaper installation in Georgetown 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 Georgetown homeowners budget between $400 and $900 for installation labor. Historic properties in Georgetown’s Victorian district and luxury renovation projects — where premium natural fiber materials and high-end finishes set the standard — consistently fall toward the higher end of that range.
Key factors that affect pricing in Georgetown specifically:
Wall condition. Georgetown’s Victorian and Queen Anne properties frequently have original plaster walls, multiple paint layers, or previous wallpaper applied without proper sizing. These surfaces require stabilization, skim coating, and priming before installation can begin. At 8,500 feet, unsealed walls absorb adhesive unevenly — a problem compounded by the elevation’s low humidity and air pressure. Prep work is quoted separately from installation labor.
Wallpaper type. Standard vinyl and non-woven papers are the most straightforward to install. Luxury natural fiber wallcoverings — metallic grasscloth, silk, sisal, and designer materials from brands like Phillip Jeffries — require significantly more care in handling, adhesive selection, seam placement, and edge treatment. These materials are priced at a higher labor rate that reflects the skill and time required.
Room complexity. Compact spaces like powder rooms require precise seam placement and edge work at every termination point — vanity surfaces, ceiling lines, floor transitions — where any imprecision is immediately visible in a small space under close lighting.

Yes — and wallpaper removal in Georgetown’s Victorian and Queen Anne homes is one of the more involved prep scenarios we encounter across Colorado’s mountain communities. These properties were built in an era when wallpaper was the standard interior finish, and many have multiple layers dating back over a century.
Assessment first. Before any removal begins, we evaluate the substrate — original plaster, drywall over plaster, or modified surfaces — and the adhesive type. In Georgetown’s oldest properties, original plaster walls require the most conservative removal approach. Too much moisture during removal can damage structurally sound plaster that would otherwise be an excellent substrate for new wallcovering.
Multi-layer situations. Historic Georgetown properties sometimes have two or more wallpaper layers applied over original plaster across multiple renovation periods. Each layer requires individual assessment — the top layer may release cleanly while the layer beneath it is bonded directly to the plaster and requires a different removal technique.
Wall repair and prep. After removal, we skim coat damaged areas, sand, and apply barrier primer before any new wallcovering goes up. At Enjoy The Wall, this sequence is non-negotiable in historic properties — an unsealed post-removal plaster surface will cause adhesion failure regardless of the quality of the new material.
All removal and prep work is assessed in person and quoted upfront. Contact us to schedule a site visit for your Georgetown property.
Yes — and Georgetown’s historic renovation market is one where installer-designer partnerships deliver the most value. The town’s Victorian architectural stock attracts homeowners who invest seriously in period-appropriate renovations, and those projects require an installer who understands both the material demands and the aesthetic context.
What we bring to the partnership:
Historic property expertise. Kris A. is a member of the Wallcovering Installers Association (WIA) and the Interior Design Society (IDS). We understand the preparation requirements for original plaster, the seam planning considerations for irregular Victorian room proportions, and the care required when working with luxury natural fiber materials in architecturally sensitive spaces.
Luxury material handling. Metallic grasscloth, Phillip Jeffries silk weaves, and similar high-end wallcoverings require installation technique that goes well beyond standard residential work — correct adhesive for the substrate and material, seam placement planned to minimize visibility under the specific lighting conditions of the room, and edge treatment at every termination point. We approach these materials with the precision they require.
Clear communication and documentation. We assess wall conditions before work begins, flag issues before they affect the installation, and keep designers and contractors informed throughout. For renovation projects in Georgetown where the finish standard is high and the client expectations are higher, that transparency is what makes the professional relationship work.

Georgetown’s Victorian and Queen Anne properties are genuinely well-suited to wallpaper — these homes were designed in an era when wallcovering was the standard interior finish, and the architectural details that define them complement wallpaper in ways that modern construction rarely does.
Period-appropriate patterns — florals, damasks, stripes, Morris-style botanicals, and toile — feel authentic in Georgetown’s historic interiors and complement original woodwork, decorative moldings, and period hardware. Brands like Farrow & Ball, Thibaut, and Cole & Son offer options that read historically grounded without being overly literal or costume-like.
Luxury natural fibers — metallic grasscloth, sisal, and silk weaves — work exceptionally well in Georgetown’s bathrooms, dining rooms, and studies where the goal is depth and tactile quality rather than pattern. In compact spaces like powder rooms, a full wrap of dark metallic grasscloth under specific pendant lighting creates an effect that no painted surface can replicate.
Venetian plaster and limewash are increasingly popular in Georgetown as alternatives or complements to wallpaper in living rooms and entryways. These seamless finishes handle mountain climate conditions well, complement the texture of historic plaster walls, and add depth that pairs naturally with Georgetown’s Victorian architectural character.
In Kris A.’s experience, the strongest design choices in Georgetown’s historic homes use wallcovering to amplify the existing architecture rather than compete with it — a botanical damask that echoes the carved woodwork, or a grasscloth texture that grounds a room dominated by ornate period details.
Yes — and compact rooms in historic Georgetown properties are actually among our favorite installation scenarios. The constraint of a small Victorian bedroom, parlor, or powder room forces precision in a way that larger spaces don’t, and the result — when the material and placement are right — can be more impactful than any large-room installation.
What compact room installation involves:
Seam planning before hanging. In a small room, every seam is visible from close range and under varying light conditions throughout the day. We plan seam placement before any strip goes up — identifying the dominant sightline in the room, the primary light source, and the termination points at doors, windows, and corners. For natural fiber materials like grasscloth, this planning determines whether the seams read as a design feature or a flaw.
Edge work at every transition. Victorian rooms have decorative moldings, built-ins, and irregular wall profiles that require careful fitting and cutting. Every edge — at the ceiling molding, at the baseboard, at door and window casings — must be cut cleanly and terminated precisely.
Material selection for small spaces. Compact rooms benefit from materials that add depth and texture without overwhelming the space. Dark metallic grasscloth in a powder room, tone-on-tone botanical in a bedroom, or a narrow-stripe non-woven in a hallway all create presence without making the room feel smaller.
Contact us to discuss your Georgetown project — small historic rooms are something we assess in person before quoting, since the precision requirements and material handling are distinct from standard residential work.
