About

Wallpaper... it’s why we’re here. Wallpaper is all I do, and what I do best. I was born and raised in Manchester, England. At the age of 17 I took an apprenticeship that developed my love of interiors and decorating. This apprenticeship led to a career of 30+ years in the wall covering and decorating industry. Throughout my career I have amassed a wealth of knowledge in my field and I am constantly honing my craft and refining my technique. After a move across the pond, I am now offering my services to the state of Minnesota and the upper midwest specializing in wallpaper hanging. Let me help transform your old room into your dream room.

I only have good things to say about our experience working with Gary. He helped us problem solve and order wallpaper for our space and was able to install it very quickly. Gary managed to give the giant, empty bathroom at the office some much needed character.

Scheduling response time and communication was excellent. Completed project has a completely professional finished look. I wanted to be sure the wallpaper was installed with forethought about the pattern matching and other key elements so that the result was clean and that is what I got. It looks really nice.

Gary is a master of his craft! He responded very quickly to my initial inquiry, fabulous communication! The wallpaper I picked out had a pattern that was hard to work with, it was no challenge for Gary! The wallpaper looks amazing and Gary was fantastic to work with.
