Wallpaper Installation Cost in Atlanta (2026 Pricing)

Wallpaper is making a strong comeback in Atlanta homes, from bold accent walls to full-room installations. Professional installation ensures a smooth, bubble-free result that lasts for years.

Installation Cost by Material

Standard pre-pasted paper costs $3-$5 per square foot to install. Non-woven and vinyl wallpapers run $4-$6 per square foot. Grasscloth and specialty materials cost $5-$8 per square foot due to the delicate handling required. Peel-and-stick installation is the most affordable at $2-$4 per square foot, though it works best on smooth, well-prepared walls.

Removal Costs

Removing existing wallpaper costs $1-$3 per square foot. Strippable papers are the easiest (and cheapest) to remove. Older papers that were applied with permanent adhesive take more time and may require scoring, steaming, and wall repair afterward. Many Atlanta homes built in the 1980s and 1990s have multiple layers of wallpaper that increase removal costs.

Accent Wall vs Full Room

A single accent wall (roughly 50-80 square feet) typically costs $200-$600 for installation plus material. A full bedroom runs $800-$2,000. A large living room or dining room can reach $1,500-$3,500. OVO Painting provides per-room quotes so you know the exact cost before committing.
