A simple tear in the house wallpaper can be re-glued and it will be almost inconspicuous. The same can be done for visible seams for the house wallpaper sections that have lifted themselves from the wall. It is very easy to repair. Just moisten the loose paper by using a damp sponge. Next, lift the house wallpaper from the wall and spread a thin layer of adhesive to its back. Then press it back to the wall. You need to roll the area with the help of a seam roller. Do remember to sponge off any extra adhesive. This way, your house wallpaper will be mended and will look brand new again.

In case of other imperfections like air bubbles, cut a small X mark on the spot. Now peel back the rips in order to remove the rubble if any. Next, apply a thin layer of vinyl adhesive on the flaps. Now press this paper back to the wall and roll them flat. In case the air bubble in your house wallpaper contains only air, you can fill a glue-injecting syringe with a little amount of diluted ready-mix adhesive. Now make a small slit on the air bubble by using a razor knife and squirt your adhesive through this slit. Roll its surface flat. Do not forget to wipe off any excess adhesive from the house wallpaper.

You will find big rips and tears in the kids wallpaper, bathroom wallpaper, as well as the kitchen wallpaper and borders. You need to patch these with wallpaper bearing the same pattern. This is where you will need extra rolls.

Use a utility knife to cut a piece from the spare wallpaper. Ensure that it is larger than the damaged area. Now place this over the torn area but try to match the pattern of the wallpaper. Now hold the extra wallpaper in place with the help of blue safety tapes. Trace the edges of the spare house wallpaper with the help of a razor and cut the damaged house wallpaper in the process. Now remove the spare house wallpaper. Next, moisten the damaged area with water in order to loosen the adhesive. Remove the damaged area and you may use a putty knife for those vestiges which you can’t lift with your finger. Before putting the new piece of house wallpaper clean the wall well. Apply primer in case you are down to a raw wall.
