Old layers in the centre, smooth walls in Ruczaj
In the tenement houses of the centre and Kazimierz, the walls have seen several renovations. Before new wallpaper goes up, the old layers have to come off, and then the plaster needs checking, because sometimes it comes away with the paper. Preparing walls for wallpaper is a separate item in the catalogue. Say in the order how many layers you can see at the corner of the wall, and add a close-up photo. That changes the scope more than the square metres do.
In Ruczaj and Bronowice the walls in new flats are usually even, so the work starts with priming and choosing the wallpaper. Non-woven is the easiest to hang and easy to take down later. Vinyl on a non-woven backing stands up better to wiping in a kitchen or hallway. In a flat let to students or tourists, that kind of wallpaper will cope better with one tenant after another.

Questions about wallpapering in Kraków
How much does wallpapering cost in Kraków?
The pro gives the price per metre and for the whole job in the offer. The ranges on the site were based on Warsaw, so in Kraków treat them as a guide. Wallpaper and paste are materials you pay for separately.
Is wallpaper with a large pattern hung differently?
Yes. With a pattern, each strip has to be matched to the previous one, so it takes more wallpaper and more time. It's a separate service in the catalogue. Put the pattern repeat from the roll label in the order.
How many rolls should I buy?
Give the wall dimensions, the number of windows and doors, and the wallpaper name in the order. The pro will work out the rolls with extra for cuts and pattern matching. Buy rolls from the same batch, because the shade can differ between batches.
Can the same pro paint the ceiling too?
Add painting to the order. Wallpapering and painting are in the same catalogue category, so one person can quote for both in one offer if they do both.
