The pattern should run straight through every join.
Wallpapering is the job reviewers mention most. Most of the skill is in the joins: drops hung plumb, the pattern matched at every seam, and clean cuts at the ceiling, skirting and stairs.
Straight match
The pattern sits level across every join. Each drop is cut so the next one lines up exactly beside it.
Half-drop match
Every other drop starts half a repeat lower, so the motifs step diagonally across the wall. It usually takes more paper.
Free match
Nothing to line up, so less waste, but every stripe has to hang dead plumb. Any lean shows straight away.
Paper the stairwell, before Justin does.
Halls, stairs and landings have the longest drops in the house and the most joins on show. Pick the walls, a paper and the woodwork, watch it go up, and send Justin the job to quote.
Tap a wall on the drawing, or pick a paper and it goes up the stairs.

Papering first. Painting too.
Wallpaper first, because that is what most people ask Justin for. Painting, ceilings and woodwork too, from one wall to the whole house.

Before you call
Will Justin come and look before quoting?
Yes. Reviewers describe Justin coming out to quote, pricing the whole job from start to finish (including any remedial work) and advising which paint and products suit it.
Who will be working in my house?
Justin does the work himself, and on many jobs his assistant Abby works with him. Reviewers describe them both as friendly, polite and respectful of the house.
Can you hang two different papers in one job?
Yes. One reviewer had the living room and dining room walls papered in two different papers in a single visit. Tell Justin which walls get which paper when he comes to quote.
I've already bought my paper. Is that OK?
Mention it when you call. It helps to check every roll has the same batch number and to keep the label, which shows the pattern match and repeat. Justin can tell you whether you have enough.
How soon can you start?
It depends on the diary. Reviewers describe starting from about a week to a few weeks after the quote. Call or text to ask about your dates.
Do you tidy up?
Reviewers say everything was tidied away every night on a two-week job, and that the room was cleaned and cleared at the end.
