Troubleshooting
Wallpaper not adhering to the wall.
Ensure the wall is properly prepared, clean, and dry. Use the correct type and amount of wallpaper paste. Press firmly and smooth out air bubbles during installation.
Visible seams or gaps between wallpaper strips.
Ensure the edges of the wallpaper are butted up closely without overlapping. Use a seam roller to flatten the seams. Check for proper pattern matching.
Air bubbles under the wallpaper.
