Changing a room without building anything
A printed wall graphic changes the character of a space in a day, without construction, without a landlord application and reversibly at the end of a lease. For the cost of redecorating one room you can brand a whole floor.
The variable that decides whether it looks good in two years is the film and the surface it goes onto, not the print. Matt laminated vinyl on a sound, cured, smooth wall will last as long as you want it. The same graphic on fresh paint or a textured surface will lift within months.
Before you order
Surface preparation causes almost every wall graphic failure we are called to fix. Newly painted walls need to cure fully, typically two to four weeks. Textured, anti graffiti and some wipe clean paints will not hold vinyl at all. We test the surface at survey rather than assuming.
What we need to quote
- Wall dimensions and photographs
- Wall finish and when it was last painted
- Whether the graphic needs to be removable
- Artwork, or a brief if you want us to design it

Common questions
How long do wall graphics last?
Indefinitely on a sound, cured, smooth wall with matt laminated vinyl. On fresh paint or a textured surface they will lift within months, which is why surface preparation is most of the job.
How long must new paint cure before applying graphics?
Typically two to four weeks. Applying vinyl to paint that has not fully cured is the most common cause of failure we are called back to fix.
Will wall graphics damage the paintwork?
Not on sound, cured paintwork. Removable low tack adhesive is available for short leases and temporary installations.
Got a wall to transform?
Send photographs and dimensions. We will confirm whether the surface will take vinyl and what it costs.
