Comprehensive Wallpaper Services in Tarpon Springs
RB's Wallpapering offers a full range of residential wallpaper services tailored to Tarpon Springs homeowners. Since 1986, our team has specialized in wallpaper installation, wallpaper repair, wallpaper removal, drywall repair, and custom murals and accent walls.

Nearly 40 Years
We focus on reliability, craftsmanship, and practical recommendations that consider Tarpon Springs’ climate and housing types.
Our Service Philosophy
Our approach to service is simple: provide high-quality, durable results with transparent pricing and minimal fuss for homeowners. We understand that wallpaper projects can be both aesthetic and functional decisions, and we treat each project with a strategic plan—starting with a thorough assessment and ending with a detailed client walkthrough. We aim to minimize surprises and prioritize long-term performance so your investment continues to look excellent year after year.
Why a Single-Source Provider Matters
Wallpaper projects can involve multiple trades—installers, drywallers, painters, and sometimes electricians (for outlet relocation or fixture adjustments). RB's Wallpapering offers integrated services that reduce coordination headaches for homeowners. By managing removal, drywall repair, and installation in one package, we streamline schedules, control quality, and reduce the risk of miscommunication across contractors.
Wallpaper Installation
Whether installing a single accent wall or papering an entire home, RB's Wallpapering handles all wallpaper types: vinyl, fabric-backed, non-woven, grasscloth, textured, and specialty mural panels. Our installations include:
- Accurate measurement, panel planning, and waste calculation.
Proper substrate preparation including priming, smoothing, and minor drywall repairs.
Pattern matching and border alignment with clean trims.
Professional seam rolling and edge finishing to prevent lift.
Final clean-up and walkthrough to ensure satisfaction.
Materials and techniques are selected based on room function (bathrooms vs. living rooms), light exposure, and homeowner lifestyle to maximize durability.
Wallpaper Repair
Common wallpaper issues include lifted seams, bubbles, water damage, and localized tears. We provide targeted repairs that often avoid full replacement:
- Re-adhering lifted seams with industry-grade adhesives.
Bubble removal and edge sealing.
Patch repairs using spare material or matched repairs when possible.
Recoloring and touch-up suggestions for sun-faded areas.
Advice on moisture mitigation for recurring failures.
Repair work focuses on both cosmetic improvement and preventing recurrence.
Wallpaper Removal
Removing old wallpaper is often the hidden cost of installing new paper. We perform careful removal with minimal drywall damage:
- Assessment of paper type (strippable, non-strippable, vinyl) and recommended removal method.
Controlled soaking and lifting techniques, followed by scraping when necessary.
Safe disposal and containment of debris.
Post-removal substrate assessment and repair as needed prior to new installation.
For older homes, additional steps such as patching and skim-coating may be required—these are included in our comprehensive estimates.
Drywall Repair
Proper wallpapering begins with the wall surface. We offer drywall repair services to ensure a smooth substrate:
- Patching of gouges and holes left after wallpaper removal.
Taping and joint compound application to blend seams.
Sanding, skim-coats, and priming for perfect adhesion.
Moisture remediation and damaged drywall replacement for compromised areas.
Our drywall work is performed to industry finishing standards appropriate for visible wall applications.
Custom Murals & Accent Walls
Make a room unforgettable with a custom mural or precision accent wall. RB's Wallpapering collaborates with homeowners and designers to:
- Plan mural scale and placement relative to architectural features.
Coordinate with suppliers for printed panels or bespoke designs.
Execute installation with precision so seams align and visuals read as one continuous image.
Offer finishing touches like protective coatings for high-traffic or sun-exposed walls.
We handle everything from single-panel installations to room-spanning murals that become focal points in homes.
Peel & Stick Wallpaper
Refresh your space with professionally installed peel-and-stick wallpaper. Whether you're updating a feature wall or transforming an entire room, we provide precise installation that delivers a smooth, seamless finish without the hassle.
- We inspect and prepare the wall surface to ensure optimal adhesion and a long-lasting finish.
We carefully plan the placement of each panel to achieve balanced alignment and minimize visible seams.
Every panel is installed with care, ensuring patterns match perfectly, bubbles are eliminated, and the finished wall appears smooth and continuous.
Peel-and-stick wallpaper is ideal for renters and homeowners looking for a stylish update without permanent wall coverings. We install it neatly while protecting your existing walls.
Whether you're installing a single feature wall or decorating multiple rooms, our professional installation ensures your peel-and-stick wallpaper looks flawless from edge to edg
Why These Services Matter
Many homeowners underestimate the complexity of wallpaper projects. Proper installation affects longevity, visual appeal, and ease of maintenance. High-quality installations reduce the risk of curling seams, visible mismatches, and early failure—common issues that arise from DIY attempts or inexperienced contractors. RB's expertise reduces the total cost of ownership by ensuring the job is done right the first time.
How We Price and Schedule Work
RB's Wallpapering provides clear, itemized estimates. Pricing considers:
- Scope of work: square footage, number of walls, and wall height.
Material requirements: type of paper, waste for pattern repeat, and adhesive.
Prep work: removal, drywall repair, and priming needs.
Complexity: pattern repeat, corners, fixtures, and trim work.
Travel and project scheduling specifics.
We typically require a deposit for material ordering and scheduling, with final payment upon completion. For larger projects, staged scheduling or phased installations can minimize disruption.
Quality Control and Follow-Up
After completion, we conduct a final inspection and invite homeowners to walk the space with our senior installer. We document the installation, note material types used, and provide care guidance (cleaning, humidity control, and recommended maintenance). If adjustments are needed in the warranty window, we respond promptly to address concerns.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can wallpaper be used in bathrooms and kitchens?
Yes—selected vinyl or properly treated papers can work in kitchens and bathrooms when installed with moisture-resistant adhesives and paired with good ventilation. RB's Wallpapering recommends specific materials and installation practices for these environments.
What is the difference between paste-the-wall and pre-pasted papers?
Paste-the-wall papers require adhesive applied to the wall rather than the paper. Pre-pasted papers come with adhesive that is activated with water. Both have advantages depending on paper type and installer preference; we recommend based on manufacturer instructions and job conditions.
How long will professionally installed wallpaper last?
With proper materials and installation, wallpaper can last many years—often a decade or more. Durability depends on environmental conditions, paper type, and maintenance.
Do you provide free estimates?
Yes. RB's Wallpapering offers free on-site estimates to measure, assess, and recommend the best course of action.
