Wallpaper Installation in El Portal, FL

Wallpaper hanging and careful removal for older, character-filled homes in the Village of El Portal, about 18.7 miles from our Fort Lauderdale base.

Repaired wallpaper seam blending seamlessly into the wall.

El Portal is a small residential village in Miami-Dade County, surrounded by Miami Shores and Miami, with leafy streets and many older homes. It is about 18.7 miles south of our Fort Lauderdale base. The village has a strong neighborhood feel, and homeowners here often want updates that respect the style and age of their houses.

Older homes often have a few surprises behind the walls: several layers of paint, old paper hidden under paint, patched plaster, or walls that are not quite square. RoyalWall Interiors takes a careful approach, starting with a close look and a small test before any removal or hanging.


Wallpaper Hanging in El Portal Homes

Character homes and wallpaper go well together, whether you prefer a vintage look or something modern.

Vintage-Inspired Patterns

Botanicals, stripes, and small repeating prints suit many older homes. They also hide minor wall irregularities better than solid or very smooth papers.

Modern Patterns in Older Rooms

A bold geometric or mural can look striking against original trim and windows. The contrast looks sharpest when the wall prep is precise. Large-scale modern prints and smooth metallic papers show every ridge and patch, so we spend extra time leveling the wall in those rooms. Built-ins, deep window sills, and older door casings also call for careful trimming, and we take our time at each one.


Careful Removal on Older Walls

When old paper has been painted over, removal takes patience. We score the surface, apply a softening solution, and work in small sections to protect the plaster or drywall underneath. Cracks and low spots are filled and sanded, then the wall is sealed and primed. The aim is a sound, smooth surface that will hold new paper or paint without bubbling.

Before You Call

Let us know roughly how old the house is, what is on the walls now, and which rooms you want to change. Photos of cracks, peeling seams, or bubbling paint help us plan. If you have a style in mind, share a few examples so we can suggest papers that suit the house.


El Portal FAQ

Can you tell if there is paper under paint?

Usually. Seam lines and bubbling are common signs, and a small test confirms it.

Do vintage patterns hide wall flaws?

Busy, small-scale prints are more forgiving than smooth solids.

Can you paper below a chair rail only?

Yes. It is a classic look for dining rooms and halls.

What if my walls are not square?

We hang from a true plumb line and place pattern shifts where they are least visible.

Is removal on plaster different from drywall?

Plaster tolerates soaking better but can hide cracks, which we repair.

Can wallpaper go in an older bathroom?

Yes, with vinyl paper and good ventilation.
