Most common beginner mistakes

First of all, let's look at how you don't need to glue wallpaper. Most often, beginners can see the following errors:

• Poorly prepared surface. The level of difficulty of pasting the junction of planes depends on their quality. If the apartment has curved corners, then it will not be easy even for a specialist to finish it with high quality.
  Of course, it is not always possible to make the wall joints perfect, strictly at 90 degrees, but there should be no deviations from the vertical. Therefore, take the time and effort to prepare the surface - plaster the walls or even plaster;

Plaster corners will help you quickly and easily align the external joints of the walls. During installation, they are leveled, after which they are glued with plaster or putty. The price of the corners starts from 30 rubles per 2 meters.

• Wallpaper cutting.As a result of such a decision, the edges of the canvases may diverge or vice versa - unevenly overlap each other, respectively, the gluing looks sloppy. Therefore, according to the technology, it is necessary to provide a small turn-up on the adjacent plane.

An exception is paper webs, which can be cut vertically. The only thing, in this case, you first need to stick a thin strip of wallpaper on the wall joint in case the joints disperse;

• Big bloat.If the joints of the walls are even, then such a mistake is not terrible, but in curved corners a large twist will lead to the strip deviating from the vertical. As a result, all subsequent canvases will be glued crookedly;

• The canvases are not fully glued. When gluing the canvas, many beginners do not push it all the way, as a result of which a small area located opposite the inner corner hangs in the air. This leads to the fact that over time, the coating begins to peel off and even tear;
• Poor glue applied.If wallpaper is glued on a non-woven base, then the glue is applied to the surface of the walls, not the canvas. In this case, the mistake is to work with a roller, which does not always allow you to completely smear hard-to-reach places.

Beginners are often interested in - from what angle to start gluing wallpaper? If they are all even, then it doesn't matter where you start gluing. Otherwise, start gluing from an even angle to avoid skewing the stripes on the walls.

Gluing technology

As you know, there are two types of angles:

Each of their types requires their own approach when pasting, therefore, further we will separately consider the process of gluing wallpaper to the outer and inner corners.

Internal

The sticker instructions are as follows:

Illustrations	Description of actions
	Surface preparation.Beginners often priming the walls with their own hands only with a roller, however, as in the case of glue, it is difficult to process the corners with high quality with this tool. Therefore, after priming the walls, be sure to "walk" along hard-to-reach places brush.
	Glue application. If non-woven wallpaper is glued, as mentioned above, the glue is applied to the walls, not the canvas.
	Bonding. The canvas must be cut in width so that the curl on the adjacent wall is about one and a half centimeters. In uneven corners, the curl can be increased up to 5 cm; If you are gluing meter-long non-woven wallpaper, and you had to cut a wide piece of a strip, you can start pasting an adjacent wall with it, if, of course, the pattern allows. Then you should push the canvas with a spatula so that it fits snugly against the walls; If wrinkles appear, the edge must be trimmed across, i.e. towards the fold. The strips on the adjacent wall must be overlapped with the edge. In this case, the canvas is aligned with the markings (vertical line), and not the edge itself.

This completes the gluing.

Outdoor

Now let's look at how to stick this one yourself finishing material on external wall joints:

Illustrations	Description of actions
	Surface preparation.As in the previous case, the surface must be primed and glue applied if the canvases are vinyl on a non-woven basis.
	Bonding: Position the strip so that it overlaps the adjacent wall by 30 centimeters; If the edge begins to wrinkle, cut it lengthwise so that the curl is no more than 5-10 mm. If the wallpaper is patterned, with such a small twist, it may be necessary to trim the edge of the second canvas to match the pattern.

Many people are wondering - how to protect the wallpaper on the outer corners? For these purposes, there are special decorative cornersthat are glued over the finish.

Wall decoration is an integral part of apartment renovation. Of the many options, perhaps the most famous and popular material for wall decoration is wallpaper. Huge selection of textures and patterns, affordable price and an excellent ability to radically refresh a room - these are the main advantages of this material, which have been captivating the owners of apartments and houses for more than a decade.

Another plus in favor of choosing wallpaper is the ability to independently perform simple work, getting savings and pleasure from the result. However, the surface of the walls is uneven and many are stopped by the question: how to glue wallpaper in the corners?

The glued canvases repeat the unevenness of the walls, hiding some of them. But at the corners it is different. Even non-woven wallpaper, which is easily stretched like a fabric, wrinkles at uneven corners when dried, folds and distortions appear. Later, they peel off in these places. To prevent this from happening, you should know how to glue them correctly.

Preparing wall corners

Save

Even if the walls are plastered along the lighthouses and high-quality plastered, this does not mean that everything is in order with the corners. Shallow grooves and grooves are unacceptable, they are putty. Ideally, when puttying and subsequent sanding, the inner corner is given a minimum rounding radius.

This will completely remove excess glue and air during pasting. When preparing the outer corner, it is imperative to use a perforated corner. This will help create straight lines and properly wallpaper it, protect against plaster collapse in case of light blows that occur, for example, when furniture drifts.

When applying the primer to the walls, a roller is used. Use a brush for thoroughly priming corners. Choose the order of the sheets and decide where to start. It may be more convenient to start at the edge of a window or doorway... Start by choosing a wall with a less noticeable angle, such as where the cabinet will stand.

Pick up a narrow strip of wallpaper cut from a roll to the width. Walk with her along the selected wall, trying the options for the location of the sheets. When choosing the option of how to properly glue the corners with wallpaper, strictly follow the rules:

• sheet joints in the corners are unacceptable;
• no matter how even the corner may seem, do not plan to paste over it with a solid sheet;
• instead of an overlap sticker, use an overlap sticker followed by a double cut.

Shifting the starting point, select the location of the first panel on the wall so that approximately the middle part of the next panel falls on the corner walls. Using a plumb line and a sharpened pencil, mark a vertical line on the wall. It is not necessary to draw a solid line, which can later become noticeable.

You can apply barely noticeable centimeter-long marks every 20-30 cm and draw a line not from the very junction, but, say, one centimeter to the left or to the right, so that later this line will close. Such an inconspicuous line will serve as a reliable reference point and will not show up later at the very junction, as it sometimes happens.

Gluing the first canvases

Recall the sequence of the sticker:

• Open the wallpaper with or without pattern selection (according to the instructions in the roll).
• Apply glue to walls, canvas, or to walls and canvas (according to the instructions).
• If the sheet is glued, fold it over to prevent the glue from drying out prematurely.
• Stick the canvas on the wall from the ceiling downward, guided by the vertical mark or with the extreme edge of the already glued canvas, aligning the pattern.
• Carefully remove the remaining air with a roller or brush, smoothing from the center to the edges.
• Using a wide spatula with a stationery knife, trim the top and bottom of the panel, smooth it again with a roller, if necessary, coat with glue and smooth again.

How to paste the wallpaper: inner corners

1. We cut out a strip from a single piece, 5 centimeters wide than the distance from the last piece to the corner (we measure it at the ceiling, in the middle and at the floor, take the largest one), the remaining piece will be glued after the first.
2. We coat with glue (according to the instructions for the wallpaper) and glue the prepared canvas, smoothing it with a roller or brush, first on the wall, then in the corner and after that the strip on the next wall, removing excess glue and air.
3. In places where the wallpaper wrinkles noticeably, we make horizontal cuts 5–10 cm apart.
4. Using a plumb line, draw a vertical line for sticking the remaining piece of canvas so that it is glued with an overlap of 2 cm on the previous canvas in its narrowest part.
5. We coat and glue the remaining canvas, aligning the smooth edge with the applied vertical line, smoothing out the remaining glue and air.
6. We are preparing a knife, for this, before each cut, we break off the tip of the knife according to the marks on the blade.
7. Using a knife and a wide spatula, we cut without tearing, in one step, both layers of the canvas so that the cut passes a centimeter from the edge of the second strip.
8. We remove the cut off excess, if necessary, bend the edges and add glue, roll it in with a roller.

After double trimming, an inconspicuous joint remains. If it didn't work the first time, remove the glued strips and repeat with great diligence. It will definitely work, and you will know how to properly glue the wallpaper in the corners.

Pasting the outer corners of the room is carried out in the same order and in compliance with the same rules: we carry out the markings so that there are no joints and do not try to paste over with a solid canvas. Save

Useful Tips specialists

• If you find an air bubble and it does not smooth out, pierce it, remove the air, pour a little glue with a syringe and smooth it with a roller.
• Sometimes, when trimming from above, from below or at the window and doorway, the wallpaper is chewed. Let them dry a little and repeat the cut. Perhaps the knife is dull and it is time to replace the blade.
• Avoid drafts in the room, this can lead to premature uneven drying and flaking of the sheets.
• Unplug and frame outlets and switches in the room ahead of time. You can put it back in place immediately after pasting.
• When gluing to problem areas, add 10% PVA glue to water while preparing the glue.
• If old wallpaper is difficult to remove, wet it with a primer using a paint roller. Remove immediately before the primer is dry.

In the article you can find the answer to the question of how to glue wallpaper in the corners. It is worth treating the finishing process with all responsibility, irregularities can be conspicuous, thereby spoiling the impression of a freshly made repair.

Step-by-step instructions for gluing inner corners

When finishing the main problem uneven walls and resulting folds in the wallpaper can become. It should also be borne in mind that with curved walls, the joints of the wallpaper can diverge.

How to glue the outer corner (outer)?

The protruding corner needs to be pasted over by analogy with the internal one, however there are small differences that must also be taken into account when working.

What if the corners are uneven?

Uneven walls are a common problem in older homes. Before you start gluing topcoat, it is desirable to spend preparatory work and put the surfaces in order. If the corners are visually even and do not require overhaul, it will be enough to walk with a hard cloth, removing small bumps and dust. If the irregularities are noticeable to the naked eye, then it is better to do a little work before you start gluing the wallpaper.

Features of gluing meter wallpaper

Wide canvases are convenient because they allow you to finish with fewer seams on the surface. It is more difficult to glue them, but the result is worth it.

How to join in corners?

It would seem that such a trifle as gluing corners in a room can completely ruin the whole work if done incorrectly. And if there is also a pattern on the wallpaper that needs to be customized, then you should approach the finishing responsibly.

How do I fit the drawing in the corners?

It is important that the drawing is continuous and even around the entire perimeter of the room. To do this, you need to correctly combine the pattern, and cut off the excess.

1. The strips are also overlapped. Leave an allowance for both walls.
2. With a plastic spatula, the wallpaper is pressed against the corner.
3. After gluing the second sheet, the wallpaper is cut according to the pattern. This method refers to wallpaper with a small pattern. A large pattern may require trimming at the edges.

Before gluing, you must first prepare the material for work by spreading the covering on the floor and studying the drawing. Segments are cut off after pattern matching.

Features of cutting wallpaper in the corners

In order to get a perfectly even seam in the corner, you need to properly trim the excess.

1. After the wallpaper is glued to the wall, an even metal ruler is applied, it can also be a spatula or a rule. To make the cutting line even, you can use a level.
2. With a sharp clerical knife, cut off the excess along the edge of the ruler, after which the top layer of wallpaper will come off.
3. Gently pry on and remove the bottom layer of wallpaper, remove in the same way.
4. The canvases are coated with glue and pressed tightly to the corner. As a result, the coating adheres tightly to each other.

It is not so difficult to glue wallpaper in the corners, however, special care and accuracy is required. Today there is a finishing method that allows you to do work without joints at all, namely liquid wallpaper. They are applied in an even layer and do not require such difficulties as fitting the pattern, width, precision in rounded areas and other nuances.

Wall-papering is an affordable modern interior decoration tool. Depending on the material used, you can hide some flaws and defects in the walls. Renovators know that the wrong technology for applying wallpaper and haste lead to disastrous consequences, a waste of time and effort.

Before proceeding, read the instructions for applying wallpaper to the walls.

Where to start from?

Correctly glued wallpaper will look perfect in the interior of the house. For work you will need:

• wallpaper;
• wallpaper glue;
• ruler;
• roulette;
• utensils for diluting glue;
• pencil;
• roller and brush ( different sizes);
• soft dry cloth or wallpaper brush (to remove air bubbles);
• sharp clerical knife;
• stepladder or chair.

Many recommend starting work from the door, and someone from the window. In reality, the opposite is true. Previously, canvases were produced with a special edge for overlap. Therefore, I had to start gluing from the far wall with a window. Now they make different kinds wallpaper, which is preferable to glue back to back.

In no case should you begin to glue the material from the corner.Be sure to level the walls and prime. Pasting wallpaper on uneven walls is not only difficult, but in some cases impossible.

For those who prefer to overlap, the first roll should be glued from the window. If you are not confident in your abilities, it is better to start from the doorway.

The main thing is to glue the first roll, then push off from it.

Sticking rules

The industry produces a variety of types and types of wallpaper. There are colored wallpapers - non-woven. The advantage is that they can be painted in any color. An economical way of interior decoration, because the costs are only for the paint.

The wallpapering technique requires sequential steps:

• preparation of walls;
• temporary removal of skirting boards (if possible);
• dilution of glue according to the instructions on the package;
• lubrication of the canvas (sometimes the wall needs lubrication);
• applying a roll to the wall from top to bottom;
• removal of air bubbles and folds.

Sticking rules simple wallpaper (53 cm wide) differs from meter (1 meter wide). At first glance, it seems that meter-long materials are much harder to glue.

It turns out that this is quite simple if you are good at gluing ordinary wallpaper.

There are a number of benefits that will change your mind:

• less effort and time;
• cheaper than standard wallpaper;
• creating a seamless effect;
• high quality (made in Belgium, Italy, France);
• creating an interior for every taste.

Before buying wallpaper, be sure to calculate the expense. For this, the formula from geometry is used: (wall + adjacent wall) x 2. And remember that the length of one canvas on the wall is taken with a margin of 5 cm. Always take a spare roll so that there are no shortcomings when you paste over door frames and ledges. Be sure to study the length of the canvas itself on the roll in the instructions.

A prerequisite according to safety measures is the de-energization of an apartment or house. After disconnecting, remove the top panels of sockets and switches. Starting gluing, it is necessary to clean the room from dirt and dust.

Tear off old wallpaper coverings with ordinary warm water. Wet the coatings with water using a sprayer and wait 20 minutes, after which the wallpaper will easily move away from the walls. Remove the paper with a knife or spatula. Vinyl canvases are easier to peel off with perforation.

Getting rid of the paint is much more difficult. To do this, use a grinder or drill with a special attachment, but it is better to use chemical solutions for removing paint and varnish products.

With the wet method of removing old coatings, less dust is generated and the plaster does not flake off. After removing the old coating, it is necessary to remove and repair weak spots (cracks, potholes, bulges).

Be sure to level the walls and prime. Pasting wallpaper on uneven surfaces is not only difficult, but in some cases it is impossible to carry out. A particular difficulty for beginners in this business is the issue of pasting the outer and inner corners.

Inner corner

Action technology:

1. Applying glue to the canvas or, if necessary, to the wall. Lubricate the wall joint thoroughly, as this is the most laborious part in the corner.
2. The canvas is glued in such a way that it fits 4-5 cm onto the adjacent wall.
3. Knowing the width of the material, stick the next wallpaper (2-4 cm) on top of the previous one.
4. Cut off the protruding parts, and glue the upper material in place.

If there are sockets or switches in the corner, it is necessary to cut a round hole (smaller than the size of the switches) from the canvas at this place.

The presence of rounded corners contributes to the formation of air voids. Be sure to make an incision in this area and glue the material tightly. More glue is applied to this area.

Outer corner

The outer corner is especially noticeable in the apartment, so it needs strict accuracy.

There are 2 types of gluing outside corners depending on the unevenness of the corner:

1. If the angle is even, the canvas is glued in such a way that it protrudes 3-4 cm on the adjacent side. Next is the gluing process using standard technology.
2. Uneven walls. In this situation, the projection of the canvas on the adjacent wall increases (4-5 cm).

It is necessary to measure the width of the panel and step back another 5 mm. Thus, the gluing will be overlapped.

A cut is made in the middle of the overlap. Move aside the top of the wallpaper to remove the protruding parts of the canvas. After removal, glue the top sheet in place.

On the convex surfaces of the wall, cuts are made, and the material is tightly pressed against the wall. These methods are intended for overlapping applications (for wide wallpapers). The designs of this wallpaper are designed to hide imperfections and protrusions.

These options will not work for standard paper canvases. In this case, the first option with butt gluing is used.

If the walls are uneven

Perfectly flat walls are rare. Small errors in the unevenness of the walls are acceptable, but with large deviations and noticeable curved surfaces, it is impossible to hide this when gluing wallpaper. On the contrary, the appearance of the interior of the room is distorted.

In that case, if there are cracks, they must be repaired cement mortar ... For minor cracks use gypsum plaster... Also, gluing the wallpaper beautifully and efficiently will not work. The appearance will not match the expected results. In such cases, preparatory work is necessarily carried out. Putty will be an assistant in this.

Application rules:

• clean the surface from dirt and dust;
• tear off the old cover (if any);
• apply antibacterial impregnation;
• prime the wall;
• apply 1 layer of starting putty;
• apply a masking net over the putty (to prevent cracks);
• apply a second layer of putty;
• grease with two layers of finishing putty (thickness 2-4 mm);
• after complete drying, wash with a primer;
• remove all roughness and uneven surfaces with sandpaper.

How to stick patterned models?

Wallpapering corners is a tricky job in itself, especially for a beginner.

Plain colored wallpaper is a great way out. But you can only bring liveliness to the interior with the help of a drawing. Also, in some cases, such models can cover up irregularities. Do not forget that the canvas is glued with an overlap, otherwise the drawing will add an awkward look to the interior, and all the flaws will be visible.

You can use the pattern selection method, not forgetting that the canvases are glued with an overlap, and they must be cut off. The drawing should be of medium size and go strictly along a plumb line. Pictures that are large or too small add a distorted effect.

Compilation different colors canvases can be achieved dividing the room into zones without resorting to additional costs (arches, partitions). It is important that the colors are in harmony with each other.

Uneven walls and corners are found not only in old buildings, but also in modern new buildings. It is because of such a defect that problems arise with interior decoration. To avoid sad consequences, you should follow the rules:

• In order for the wallpaper to hold better at the outer corners, it is necessary to press it against the wall as tightly as possible. Glue the wallpaper from top to bottom, gradually lowering to the floor, thereby avoiding the appearance of folds.
• If glue gets on the face of the material, remove it immediately with a soft cloth. The front sides of some types of canvas deteriorate from wallpaper glue.
• If an air bubble is found, it is necessary to pierce it. Use a syringe to inject glue and smooth.
• The inner corners of the room are the most problematic, it is in these places that peeling, swelling, rupture occurs. For effective and reliable pasting of corners, add PVA glue (10%) to water when preparing the glue. Knead the glue until smooth so that there are no lumps.

• Make sure there are no drafts. They prevent complete and uniform drying, after which the material peels off. It is allowed to ventilate the room only after the wallpaper has completely dried. This happens within 2-3 days.
• In order to better cover areas with windows and wooden openings, the canvas must be taken with a margin and allowed to dry completely. Only after that, carefully cut off the excess material with a clerical knife.
• The unevenness of the wall is not always noticeable. Only when pasting the inner and outer corners will flaws and incorrect convergence be visible. To avoid these shortcomings, immediately before work, be sure to check the curvature of the walls with the help of a building level and a plumb line.
• In the presence of thermal heating, use a thin, narrow brush to lubricate the glue.

A lot of people who decided to make repairs in an apartment or house with my own hands, believe that high-quality wallpapering will not be difficult for them. Yes, to some extent, this finishing material is quite practical, but only on flat sections of the walls, which cannot be said about the corners. How to glue wallpaper in the corners? This is the question that people who start repairing without professional help face.

It is in the corners that gluing is a laborious process, which makes it difficult and calls into question the quick completion of the repair. So you should approach this issue with all seriousness and study with scrupulousness all the nuances of such an operation, because poor wallpapering in the corners can generally ruin the whole look.

How to glue wallpaper in corners

Wallpaper is and remains the most popular finishing material for any kind of premises, whether it be a room in an apartment, an office, or a beauty salon. The quality of wallpaper varies, and you can find it for absolutely every taste, color scale and cost.

Sometimes cheap nondescript wallpapers transform a room so much that they seem to be no worse than expensive ones, that is, now the range of wallpapers on the construction market is different, and there is a high-quality and at the same time cheap material - two in one.

Today, in order to glue wallpaper, you do not need to have professional skills, but you need to know the gluing system. The walls first need to be aligned around the perimeter, in the corners, and from here the problems begin for non-professionals.

Wallpapering in the corner

It is not recommended to glue a whole strip of material. If there are uneven corners, the strip folds down and does not converge with the other. We recommend leaving the ledge around the corner by 1.5 or 2 centimeters and then the strip will lie flat. Choosing with high density wallpaper, use a plumb line. Glue a piece of trimmed wallpaper with a small gap to the adjacent wall so that it is as vertical as possible.

If there are switches or sockets in the corners or in the vicinity of them, turn off the electricity supply and remove the covers before gluing and any construction work. Fully glue the material on the raised parts, and only then carefully cut, making small cuts.

When starting pasting the wall near the door, it is important to know that the strip of wallpaper must be cut vertically before the frame starts. Then it is attached along the edge of the wall. Cut off wallpaper overhangs.

Non-woven wallpaper - how to glue wallpaper in the corner

Preparing the walls

Wallpapering should be done according to the existing technology, observing the sequence of processes, as regards not only the corners, but in general the entire procedure for pasting walls with flakes.

List of the sequence of stages of finishing work for gluing wallpaper:

1. Clean the walls from oil paint;
2. If there is whitewash, then clean it;
3. Remove deep irregularities, especially in corners;
4. Carry out the preparatory work procedure. Surface priming.

It is better to prime the surface with professional products that are sold in containers of various prices, but can also be primed with diluted glue, but is not particularly welcome. A special roller or a wide brush will help you to prime the surface. Due to the fact that in the corners the pasting is especially difficult, there is such a nuisance as the displacement of the picture. On the walls, the geometry of the drawing has been preserved, but in the corners everything has gone and now spoils the general background. Therefore, the most responsible approach is to inspect the corners, if there are irregularities, eliminate them if any.

Preparing walls for wallpapering

Wall corner alignment stage

After you have pasted over all the smooth surfaces of the walls, you have to go to the corners. Now inspect, and noticing irregularities, proceed to sanding - having carefully putty. After the putty has completely dried, it is necessary to sand the entire surface with sandpaper to achieve an ideal smooth surface so that the wallpaper does not come off in the future.

Now the corners also need to be primed. If you do not have the skill of filling, then there is a way out, just buy the same type of wallpaper, or with a simple pattern that does not require further docking (paper). So part of the question of how to glue wallpaper in the corners can be considered disclosed.

Corner glue application step

After leveling the surfaces in the corners, we proceed to applying glue, it must be distributed with all care along the height of the walls, and in the corners most conscientiously, because in these places the wallpaper most often peels off. Using a roller, distribute the glue along the entire length and with a brush in hard-to-reach places.

Applying glue to wallpaper and walls

How to glue wallpaper in corners

Finally we got to the important part of the corner gluing issue. The pros of this case recommend sticking a piece of canvas in the corners, even if the whole piece is perfectly straight. This can be explained by the fact that there is a high probability of distortions in the corners, and the subsequent sheet does not fit at all, and after drying, folds can be found. Professionals of room decoration advise to cut wallpaper canvases so that the side goes 50 mm to the next wall. Below is a drawing of wallpapering in the outer and inner corners.

Did you know: a nuisance for beginners in this business is the curvature of the gluing areas. Such a defect in the surface of the eyes cannot always be detected, therefore a list of tools will come to the rescue: a plumb line and the same building level. They measure the corners before gluing the wallpaper.

If there is quite a serious "blockage", then it is better to come to a method of "cutting" in these places. This method is used for dense wallpaper - vinyl.
According to this method, the material is passed 50 mm onto the adjacent wall around the corner, and the next sheet is glued with an overlap.
Subsequent step: in the middle of the corner is performed with a special construction knife under the level or ruler from top to bottom, a vertical cut through two layers of wallpaper.

The scheme of gluing wallpaper in the corners

Throughout the entire process, the iron ruler must fit snugly against the corner and be pressed tightly so that there is not the slightest movement. Otherwise, a shift along the cut canvas is ensured. Craftsmen recommend using a long metal ruler, a building level that has more weight and a wonderful press that interferes with movement.

We glue the wallpaper in the inner corners

In order to avoid the appearance of folds in the inner corners, these canvases should be divided into two parts before gluing the wallpaper. The first step is to glue the material to the corner of the room, then you need to accurately measure the distance from the last glued piece of wallpaper to the corner bend, and fold the docking 10-12 mm to the resulting figure. Next, one prepared part is glued to the wall with a cut edge at an adjacent corner. Adjust the edges as usual, whether it's top or bottom.
Now, using a brush or rag, press the wallpaper into inner corner rooms. If irregularities arise, such as warping of the material, then take a special knife and make cuts, while pressing the wallpaper into the wall. Then glue the next part with an overlap on the glued material, pressing it tightly against the wall with a brush. Finally, cut off the remnants at the bend with the same knife.

Tip: If your corner inner and middle parts have small bulges, and the bottom is filled up slightly inward, it is better to press the cut edges with an overlap. When pasting a room with dense (vinyl) wallpaper the best option - this is the use of glue with a transparent base at the joints; this glue is suitable for dense materials.

Methodology for pasting outside corners of a room

Gluing the outer corners of the room requires calculating the length of the wallpaper in advance, and so that the canvas is not enough, but it can bend around the convex part of the wall from 21 to 25 mm. When glueing dense quality wallpaper, know that by making light cuts for smooth styling of the strip.

How to glue wallpaper in the corners correctly

So, on dense wallpaper using an iron ruler and scissors, cut off excess strips of material, leaving a minimum of an edge, the visibility of which will not be visible under the next canvas. On top of everything, the next strip is glued with an overlap of 5-6 mm. If you chose a smooth wallpaper, then immediately iron it with a roller, and with a convex pattern, voluminous ones can be passed quite slightly with a rag.

Applying wallpaper with a pattern in the corners

The vertical pattern of the wallpaper makes it difficult to paste in the corners, because distortions are especially noticeable in these places. A pattern with a horizontal position is no exception, for example, after gluing it can be completely skewed. To avoid such incidents, it is necessary to make a small overlap on the neighboring wall and hide the joint at the top of the corner.

Tip: the difficulty of pasting corners with wallpaper is to comply with the rule - the edge fell flat along the plumb line, and the other should be cut along the edge of the corner.

A non-professional will not be able to glue the wallpaper and at the same time without the pattern shift without experience. The main thing is to make it less noticeable using the instructions provided above.

Renovation of an apartment, house or office takes a lot of time and effort, as well as money if you decide to seek help from hired workers. But thanks to the instructions given to you above and following them exactly, you will be able to proceed with self-finishingby taking the time and attention to study the wallpapering in the corners. Pay attention to the presence of defects, whether your walls are even, and carry out preparatory work to eliminate irregularities. In addition, batteries and pipes often pass in corners, interfering with the gluing process, making repairs a hassle.

If you approach this task responsibly, taking into account all the recommendations and rules, then you will expect quite a wonderful result, no worse than if the gluing was carried out by a professional team of craftsmen. By completing the finishing work with your own hands, you will significantly save money. Good luck and good completion of your home renovation!
