Pam the Paperhanger
Your Colorado Springs Wallpaper Hanger

Hello, I am "Pam the Paperhanger", and I have been installing and removing wallpaper in Colorado Springs since 1983. The comment I hear most often from my customers is: "You make it look so EASY." My response? After 25 years of practicing my trade, it is indeed easy for me...

It is easy for me to do a very fine and very efficient wallpapering or removal job for you. My business motto is "Prompt, Skilled, Neat" because I respect my customer's time, investment, home, and trust. A full half of my work comes through repeat customers or their referrals.

The other half must have all seen the wallpapered '90 Toyota Tercel that I drove in town for 4 years! I enjoy my work, I enjoy my customers, and I've always enjoyed the warmth, beauty, and personality that wallpaper can add to any room or even an automobile :).

See the huge difference wallpaper makes?

We went from plain & white to pretty & warm with 10 single rolls = $250 for my labor.

I have thousands of happy customers in the Pikes Peak region and I also have my claim-to-fame experience of working with the ABC television show Extreme Makeover Home Edition.

In 2006 I was chosen as the official paperhanger to the Peyton, CO project. I worked with the producers, the builder, designers, and yes, even Ty Pennington, to create some fun bedrooms for the adopted teenagers of the Barrett family. My customers love to hear stories about that very interesting week!

I believe that doing it yourself is always worthwhile to try, but because there are so many tricks to this trade, hiring a professional for wallpaper installation and/or removal can bring a huge savings in your valuable time alone. Less struggling with scrapers & steamers, adhesives, or even your loved ones, can make the decision to hire me a real bonus.

Years ago I created a bumper sticker for my car that said : "SAVE YOUR MARRIAGE, HIRE A PAPERHANGER". So if you call me to take care of your next wallpaper project, you just might save not only your time/money, but your sanity and the peace in your home also!

Services

Now that I have introduced myself and my business, let me tell you in more detail about the services I provide.

• I am an expert in working with the residential type wallcoverings. These are 21" to 28" in width and usually (but not always) pre-pasted. I can install these anywhere, including your store or offices.
• I have great referrals for larger commercial jobs that use vinyl and fabric yard goods.
• I also specialize in murals (even the difficult-to-hang ones!) and papering ceilings.
• I have developed ways to remove wallpaper that are very efficient and cause no damage to the walls or mess in your room.
• Always FREE on-site ESTIMATES and measuring if I can't determine your needs over the phone.
• I provide all the necessary adhesives at no charge, and I bring the tools and ladders and table I will need. You provide the wallpaper.
• My pricing is based on the square footage of the wall space we are working with, for both hanging and removing. That is then translated into a "single rolls" amount.
• A note about single rolls vs. double rolls here: It is very confusing! In this industry, we most often refer to single rolls for measuring and pricing, but when you get your wallpaper it is in what we call a "double roll BOLT". This bolt is therefore equivalent to 2 single rolls.
