When it comes to wallpapering around a corner or external angle, it's important to take the right steps to ensure a professional-looking finish.
One common mistake people make is trying to apply the wallpaper in one go, which can lead to creases, air bubbles, and other unsightly issues.
To avoid these problems, it's recommended to cut the wallpaper into lengths that are slightly longer than the height of the wall. I allow 50mm at the top and 50mm at the bottom (a total of 4" waste).
When you reach the corner cut the wallpaper to a new size, make the width of the paper wide enough to allow a slight overlap around the corner, like I show in the video, wrap the strip onto the adjacent wall (the wrap around will only be a small amount but enough to go around the corner,.
When that 'part length' is on, use the remaining part of the length and re hang it, making sure that the good edge of the paper is still plumb, the cut edge is then positioned just onto the other length which you wrapped around the corner. This is explained better in the video.
Once you've smoothed out the wallpaper and eliminated any air bubbles or wrinkles, use a sharp utility knife to trim away the excess paper at the corner. This will give you a clean, precise edge that blends seamlessly into the next length of wallpaper.
It's also important to keep in mind that wallpaper can stretch and distort when it gets wet if it's a paste the back of the paper wallpaper, so it's a good idea to let each strip of wallpaper soak for a few minutes before applying it to the wall - always read the instructions with the to see what the soak times are. This will allow the paper to relax and prevent it from shrinking or warping once it's in place.
By following these tips and techniques, you can achieve a flawless finish when wallpapering around corners or external angles.
And if you have any questions or concerns, don't hesitate to ask a professional for advice.

Another good video Phil. That's exactly how I was taught 30 yrs ago too! It's good to watch other professionals doing a good job, because no matter how long you've been at it, there is always some little tip you can pick up off of someone who's also done the job a long time. Also over time people create their own way of doing things, which sometimes is an improvement. Especially these days when the decorating trade has a lot of new innovations to keep up with. Every day is a school day. Keep up the videos, very enjoyable!

Great video. I have always done corners like this as its how I was trained at college. Since then though I've had my knuckles rapped a few times by customers and older decorators who expect it to be wrapped around with no overlap, or spliced with a second length to keep the pattern, so I have wrapped around on the last few jobs with varying success. After watching this I think I will go back to my old way.

many can't or don't know this way of doing it, they'll muddle along trying to force it around in one.. more times than not they throw the paper out of plum, create a crease/bulbble and it looks poor. do it the correct way and you negate any possible problems. also, may are self taught... and if not shown properly in the first place how would they know how to do it correctly?

@ProfessionalPainterDecorator Жыл бұрын

Great suggestion! no, but if it's a non woven paste the wall, it's more a case of seeing where the pattern match is, measure where the repeat is to make sure you're happy where it will line up. Once you get a couple on, you'll get a feel as to what needs to be cut off as waste. It's a good idea to work off a couple of rolls as not to waste too much on just one roll.

@spencercolgan Жыл бұрын

Question… I watched a video about a half an hour ago and I’m thinking about it. Instead of over laughing after the corner, I’m wondering why you didn’t just double cut through the material so that you will not see the edge of the wallpaper underneath the overlap wallpaper? In other words, when you overlap, you get a bump. I’m not telling you that you should do it like this, but I am wondering why are you don’t do it like this… Double cut through the overlap so that at least there is no bump. What do you think about that?

@ProfessionalPainterDecorator Жыл бұрын

its a good question. not every corner internal or external is 'true', if it runs out, you can't go around in one piece.. you already know that.. if you cut it with a 1/4" over lap to go around.. that is enough to hold it in place, like you use the tape with the grass cloth. once that edge is dow, if its running out.. and more of the paper is on the return wall... say part has 1/2" over lap... you trim it off so top to bottom is the 1/4" (or about 5mm) the off cut piece is hung and plumbed up.. and hung onto and near the corner edge.. not all the way to the edge, or it can be caught and the edge could peel. the 'bump' is only slight and a compromise to make sure that all the edges are plumbed up and the pattern follows through. If the pattern runs out, it's lost at the edge. Look square on to the walls, you don't see it. Very much you do the internals. sometimes you can go around a corner in one, but nothing worse than getting a bubble/crease forming cus the corner is slightly off and the paper can only go one way. Many will do it like that and get away with it, but it's not good if the pattern runs off on the horizontal .. the laser is good to keep the pattern true. back to your question. if the corner runs out.. and you come around the corner.. then overlap and cut through...... what would the corner look like with a noticeable pattern? it would show it not matching at your cut. also how far from the corner would the splice cut be? too close to the corner risks it springing up (thats another reason to slightly over lap and re hang back onto the overlap). Give it a go, it allows you to get around the corner easier that you don't have to over work the paper to get rid of the bubbles if a corner is out. I've had it where an external was from 1898 (age of the house) and a plaster repair had bee done and a metal corner bead had been fitted, so you went with a straight edge into an original old corner that wasn't so straight. on that occasion I wrapped around the corner more 1/4" to allow for the bad corner and also had to do little cuts to release the tension on the bad corner. Does that make sense?

Hi Phil, out of curiosity, how do you paper around the old wood round beads in old houses, especially chimney breast's? I've never found a straight 1 yet, in over 30 yrs of decorating. Cheers

@ProfessionalPainterDecorator Жыл бұрын

They're all over the place, so if they are just a rounded corner... I try do them the same as this, cut it to the widest part, allowing enough to get round the corner.... take the off cut, plum to the shortest width, trim off the excess....... and you know that length is now plumb for the subsequent lengths going up to it. Had a bad corner to go around last week, 1m up had all been chopped off from the floor up.. new damp proof plaster fitted, meaning the corner didn't really match the rest going up...... no way way it plum or neat/sharp enough to get around in on.. so I had to cut and re hang/plumb... but at least the next lengths were all plumb and I could butt the joints. If I didn't do it like that, the pattern was all over the place and I could get the edge of the paper anywhere near to get them to match up.

With a none woven paste the wall paper? I've not come across a non woven proper vinyl paper that's paste the wall. I'm not sure why you'd make it hard for yourself and paste a paper that's a bit nonwoven that is paste the wall. The only ones you'd paste the paper with are the ones with small peal bead balls. Where it's better to paste the paper after brushing the loose off first. As the paste on the wall can attract loose balls which you'll not remove and they'll show under the paper.

I always comment if i can lol :) the paper is non woven so quite thick anyway. If it were a chimney breast.. with the focal fire place as the main wall (like the side those sockets were on) you'd still wrap around the same, you wouldn't have the over lap from the sides coming onto the face/front of the chimney breast wall. That's why you start in the middle of a chimney breast and work from there around the room, losing the patter match in the shortest corner/or behind a door etc that's not so noticeable. You don't want the over lapped paper on the main/face wall area, always look to plan where you're drops will go. I'll have a video again on pattern placement coming in the next few weeks.
