Like upholstery or tile, certain wallcoverings are hardwearing and low-maintenance, while others are more delicate and particular. Not all wallcoverings are right for every area. “Most of the showrooms have companies they can recommend,” says Glenn, who also runs a training program for installers. His best tip for a successful installation is to work with an experienced installer. Before our products are ever put in a box to be shipped, our quality control team examines every single panel or tile for inconsistencies, and they even pack the tiles based on how they should be hung to ensure a perfect flow (even when seams are visible).Īs we mentioned, Glenn is often the person we call on to help a client with installation challenges. “We sometimes run into trouble because a client or homeowner doesn’t think you should see the panels, but that’s just the nature of the product." One thing you can always be sure of: The color and pattern will be precisely consistent from panel to panel. Either way, says Glenn, it's important to understand how the product will look once it's installed by looking at photos of finished spaces. In other words: “In certain wallcoverings, you will always see the seams,” says Glenn. Some of the products have an exact-matching repeat, while others don't. Some of our products come in tiles, while other come in rolls. The beauty of many of our collections is that they're handmade, but that also means that they'll be different that standard wallpaper or wallcoverings. Given all that he’s seen in the last quarter-century, we asked Glenn to share the most important things to know about installing our wallcoverings. That also means he’s the one who is most often called upon when our customer service department is contacted about a tricky installation. It’s safe to say that he is one of the world’s foremost experts in putting up our surfacing materials. He’s installed them in hotels and homes around the country, and as far away as Hong Kong, India, Dubai and Azerbaijan.
