Wallpaper hanging


Recommended Posts

Can anyone recommend someone to hang wallpaper? I need someone with a lot of experience and meticulous approach due to the room layout. I've contacted a couple of people previously recommended here but they have either refused to come out to give me a rough estimate (I'm just supposed to agree to a day rate without knowing vaguely how many days it will take!) or just failed to communicate.


Recommendations only please - I'm not looking for self recommendations.

Anyone who is 'touting' for business could easily get someone else to 'Recomend' them..


From your original post..

So either way you have no idea if they are reliable.


If the people PM'ing you give a contact number and an address then why not give them a go.

Ask to see any other work they have completed.

Indeed Foxy, but if the recommendation comes from an established forum member it is easier to verify and I always independently verify.


"Why not give them a go?"

Because I prefer not to, thanks. One of the people spamming me is someone with a dubious history - If I didn't already know this independently, and took your advice, I would be putting myself at risk. I appreciate that your advice is well-intentioned, but I've considered my approach here and taken it for a specific reason.

    • WoW Sue, all guns blazing. 
    • So you don't feel safe in London, but you don't want to live elsewhere? What do you do, barricade yourself in your home and never venture out? I have my eyes (sic)  open. Yes there is crime in London. That doesn't make London "lawless".
    • Well good for you, I don't feel safe. And saying why don't I go and live somewhere else is crass.  Yes London is lawless, open your eys and see the reality. 
    • Also, as discussed on another thread, that particular  assailant was possibly (we don't know)  mentally ill. Whereas I'm guessing most crimes locally are   committed for money, (ie things that can be sold, or in hopes of insurance money), food (if someone is really desperate, or to sell) or just pure mischief (like the recent goings on on Peckham Rye). I'm a 76 year old woman, and I feel safe on the streets, and I frequently go to Central London. If you seriously don't feel safe living here, why on earth don't you go and live somewhere else?! It's absolute nonsense to say London is lawless, and it's absolute nonsense to say the police stand by and do nothing. There will always be crime. It used to be cutpurses and highwaymen. And organised gangs of thieves. And people like Jack the Ripper.
