Why We Choose Traditional Wallpaper Over Peel-and-Stick for Long-Lasting Beauty

At Carlson Paint and Paper, we’ve built our reputation on delivering professional wallpaper installation across Long Island, serving Nassau County and Suffolk County with precision, style, and care. When it comes to transforming a room, nothing compares to the beauty and durability of traditional wallpaper. While peel-and-stick wallpaper has grown in popularity for quick DIY projects, we believe that for a truly flawless and lasting finish, professionally installed, high-quality wallpaper is the way to go.

The Carlson Paint and Paper Difference

With over 15 years of experience in both residential and commercial wallpaper installation, we know that your walls deserve more than a temporary solution. Our team prepares each surface meticulously—smoothing imperfections, applying the proper adhesive, and ensuring perfect pattern alignment. Whether you choose classic wallpaper, vinyl wallcoverings, or fabric wallpaper, our professional installation guarantees a seamless look that elevates the entire space.

Why We Choose Traditional Wallpaper Instead of Peel-and-Stick

1. Superior Durability - Peel-and-stick wallpaper may look good at first, but it’s not built to last. Over time, it can peel at the edges, bubble, or fade—especially in high-humidity areas like kitchens or bathrooms. Traditional wallpaper, when installed by experts, can maintain its beauty for 10–15 years or more.

2. Flawless Finish - Professional wallpaper installation eliminates common DIY issues like misaligned patterns, air bubbles, or uneven seams. Our skilled team ensures crisp edges, smooth surfaces, and a polished appearance that peel-and-stick just can’t match.

3. Better Material Options - Traditional wallpaper comes in a wider variety of textures, patterns, and finishes, including luxurious silk, embossed designs, and high-performance vinyl. Peel-and-stick options are typically limited in style and lack the depth and quality of real wallpaper.

4. Custom Fit for Any Space - Peel-and-stick wallpaper can struggle with tricky wall shapes, uneven surfaces, or large-scale designs. With traditional wallpaper, we can custom-cut and expertly fit around corners, moldings, and architectural features for a perfect fit every time.

5. Long-Term Value - While peel-and-stick may seem cheaper upfront, it often needs replacing much sooner—costing you more in the long run. Our professional wallpaper installation ensures a long-lasting investment in your home’s style and value.
