What is Paintable Wallpaper?

Paintable wallpaper is exactly what it says it is, wallpaper that you can paint! So whether you have a particular colour in mind or would like to do a colour match with other fixtures and fittings, paintable wallpaper is the perfect solution. You can of course also keep it in the classic shade of white it comes in if you are going for a minimalistic aesthetic.

Benefits of Paintable Wallpaper

Paintable wallpaper (which can be referred to as paint-on wallpaper) has lots of practical and imaginative benefits. If your walls are suffering from imperfections, embossed paintable wallpaper can be a great solution. Not only will it disguise imperfections, it can mean you can avoid costly and skilled home improvements such as skimming.

Paintable wallpaper will work hard for your home. The materials used to make paintable wallpaper are durable such as vinyl which will suffer minor scuffs and scraps better than paint alone, with the option to touch up any little patches of damage or wear and tear.

These embossed, raised or textured patterns also offer a more interesting look which leaves you with walls primed for your perfect paint colour. Once painted you are not limited to one colour, as the wallpapers are made from high quality materials that can be painted more than once. This offers a flexible and cost-effective solution for your home interior.

Which Rooms Suit Paintable Wallpaper?

The simple answer is that paintable wallpaper can go in almost any room of your home but it is particularly beneficial for hallways and areas with high traffic such as living rooms. This is because the paintable wallpaper is made from hard wearing materials and textured finishes which help hide imperfections on your walls.
