Highland Beach Wallpaper Hanging and Removal

The short answer

Yes, we install and remove wallpaper in Highland Beach condos and homes, about 9 miles north of Pompano Beach. We plan around association rules, ocean humidity and the smooth concrete or drywall surfaces common in coastal buildings.

Highland Beach is a narrow coastal town in Palm Beach County, about 9 miles north of where we keep our materials in Pompano Beach. A large share of residents live in condominium buildings, which shapes almost everything about how a wallpaper job runs here, from the day we can start to the way we carry rolls through the lobby. We have put this page together around the questions condo owners ask us most.

Does My Association Need to Approve the Work?

Interior wallpaper usually does not need design approval, but most buildings still require notice before any contractor arrives. Common requirements include contractor paperwork on file with management, work limited to weekday hours and elevator pads hung before materials go up. Ask your manager for the building's contractor packet, or give us their contact and we will request it.

Once we know the rules, we plan the day to fit them. That might mean bringing everything up in one trip, finishing paste work by a set hour, or carrying old paper out in sealed bags rather than leaving it in a shared trash room.

Concrete Walls, Drywall and What Sits Between

Coastal condo units often combine poured concrete walls on the exterior side with drywall partitions inside. Concrete can be uneven and may hold dampness, while drywall in a unit that has been repainted several times may have a slick, glossy surface that paste will not grip. We sand or degloss shiny paint, fill pits and seams, and apply a wallcovering primer suited to the surface. On concrete walls we check moisture before anything goes on.

Getting the base right is where a lot of our time goes, and it is time well spent. A clean, sealed, flat wall lets seams close tightly and makes the paper far easier to remove when you are ready for a change.

We also pay attention to outlet covers, baseboards and window returns. Removing plates, cutting neatly around switches and wrapping paper into a window recess without a visible gap are small details, yet they decide whether a room looks professionally finished or merely covered.

  • Deglossing slick enamel or semi-gloss paint
  • Patching anchor holes left by art, TVs and shelves
  • Skim coating textured or uneven sections
  • Moisture checks on the ocean-facing side

Choosing Paper for an Ocean-View Unit

Balconies, sliding glass doors and long walls of windows bring in light and, when doors open, warm salty air. A bedroom wall that gets afternoon sun is a poor spot for a delicate natural fiber, while a hallway or interior powder room can carry almost anything. Kitchens and baths in a condo benefit from vinyl wallcovering or a peel and stick product designed for humid rooms. Murals and ceiling papers work well in dining areas where the ceiling height lets the pattern breathe.

Remember that this part of Florida stays humid for most of the year, especially from May through October. If you leave the unit empty, keep the AC set to a steady temperature rather than switching it off, since a warm, closed apartment can lift seams within days.

Seasonal Owners and Storm Months

Some Highland Beach owners live here only part of the year. We can work with a building manager or a trusted neighbor to arrange access while you are elsewhere, and we send photos when the work is finished. Because the Atlantic hurricane season runs June 1 through November 30, buildings sometimes restrict contractor access when a storm is approaching, so we keep a little flexibility in late-summer and early-fall bookings.

A practical tip for part-time residents: if you plan to be away during the wettest months, leave the unit's thermostat on a moderate setting and ask the manager to check it now and then. Freshly papered walls in a sealed apartment are sensitive to any spike in humidity, and a tripped breaker or a failed condenser can go unnoticed for weeks. A quick look during a routine walk-through can catch a problem before seams lift.

What to expect

How a visit goes

  1. Clear scope before work begins

    After measuring and checking the walls, we explain what prep is needed, how many rolls to order and how long the job should take.

  2. Patterns that line up

    We plan seam placement around windows, doors and corners so repeats stay aligned from one strip to the next across the whole room.

  3. Respect for your home

    Drop cloths go down first, paste is wiped off trim as we go, and we leave the room ready to use at the end of each day.

FAQ

Common questions

Don’t see your question? Call (561) 823-3201 and we’ll talk it through.

Can you work in my condo while I am out of state?

Yes, as long as the building allows it and someone can provide access. We share finished photos so you can see the result right away.

Will you handle the paperwork the building asks for?

We can send the documents management usually requests and follow the building's posted work hours and elevator rules.

Can wallpaper go directly on a concrete wall?

It can after the wall is checked for moisture, smoothed and primed. Skipping preparation on concrete often leads to lifting seams.

What kind of wallpaper suits a condo bathroom?

Vinyl wallcovering or a humidity-rated peel and stick product. Both resist steam better than uncoated paper.

Should I turn off the AC when I leave after the install?

No. Keep it running at a steady setting so the adhesive cures evenly and humidity stays down.

Do you install in condo lobbies or hallways?

Yes. We install commercial-grade wallcoverings in shared spaces and can work with the board on scheduling.
