(Old plastered walls are un even, wavy, not in level in the corners, has bellies or valleys and mostly likely will have uneven seems)
None of the prices below include removal of old wallpaper, wall preparation plastering-patching, nor do they include the price of wallcovering material. In situations where old paper must be removed, we need to examine to see if it was professionally installed. Previous installations by professionals are usually easier to remove since pros generally use good wallpaper primers before installation.

Hallways and Stairways come in many varieties. Two story stairways require scaffolding. Extra labor is involved for set up/knock down of the scaffolding as well as the extra labor of installing wallcoverings in a high place
Certain fixtures in houses increase labor charges. Items like old-fashioned curved archways, large crown moldings, or fixtures that can't be loosened or removed require more time to cut around. Designer papers or British pulp papers may require that walls first be wallpapered with blankstock and that can increase the cost of the job substantially since the room must be wallpapered twice. Other designer papers require hand trimming which also substantially increases the cost of the job. Walls that are very rough and cracked will likely need skim coating and other remedial work which also results in an extra charge.
