What is included
Wallpaper fixing for homes, offices and shops, with walls prepared, patterns matched and seams closed by our own decorators. Wallpaper fails in Dubai when it is hung on dusty, unprimed or damp walls, or when the AC is off for the summer and humidity lifts the seams. We check the wall for moisture, repair and prime it, then hang the paper with the adhesive its manufacturer specifies.
- Paper type identified and a hidden test patch done first
- Dry methods first: a soft brush and a dry cleaning sponge
- Barely damp microfibre with a mild detergent on washable vinyl
- Silk, grasscloth and flock kept to dry cleaning methods only
How we carry out wallpaper stain and mark removal
Most marks on wallpaper sit near light switches, along corridors and at the height of a child's hand. Whether they come off depends on the paper. Washable vinyl has a plastic face that tolerates a damp cloth. Paper backed wallcoverings, silk and grasscloth do not: water leaves a tide mark, loosens the fibres or stains the weave. So the supervisor identifies the paper and tries the method in a hidden spot, often behind a door or a sofa, before going near the mark.
Work starts dry. A soft brush lifts dust, and a dry cleaning sponge takes off many fingerprints and pencil marks without any moisture at all. On vinyl, a microfibre cloth barely damp with a mild detergent comes next, dabbing from the outside of the mark inwards so it does not spread, then blotting dry. Strong solvents and melamine sponges are avoided because they can strip the print. Silk, grasscloth and flock are dry cleaned only, and some stains on them will stay.
How it works
The same method on every job, so the result does not depend on who is on shift.
- Survey, colour and written scope. We measure, test the existing coating and agree colours, sheen and the number of coats. The written quotation names the paint system and the scope.
- Protection. Furniture is moved and wrapped, floors are covered edge to edge, and switches, handles and light fittings are masked or removed.
- Surface preparation. Walls are washed, flaking paint is scraped back, cracks are opened and filled, and everything is sanded flat. Damp or salt affected areas are treated before any paint goes on.
- Primer and finish coats. A sealer or primer suited to the substrate is followed by two finish coats. Wet film thickness is checked on every coat.
- Snagging and handover. We inspect in daylight with you, touch up, clean down and hand over a paint schedule listing brand, colour codes and batch numbers for future touch ups.

Wallpaper Stain and Mark Removal in Al Thanyah First: what we plan for
This part of Al Barsha is made up of apartment and office towers, with access arranged through building management. In an apartment building we submit the work permit, book the service lift and bring compact equipment that fits it.
Older villas often have many layers of paint and patched plaster, so preparation takes longer than the painting. We strip loose coatings, fill and sand flat before priming. Road facing exterior walls are degreased before any paint is applied.
Villas are on open streets. Towers in Barsha Heights and Al Barsha 1 need a work permit and a service lift booking, which we arrange.

Questions about wallpaper stain and mark removal in Al Thanyah First
What does wallpaper stain and mark removal include?
Fingerprints, scuffs, splashes and light stains on washable vinyl wallpaper, removed after a test patch, working dry first and then barely damp. Silk and grasscloth stay dry. The work includes paper type identified and a hidden test patch done first; dry methods first: a soft brush and a dry cleaning sponge; barely damp microfibre with a mild detergent on washable vinyl.
Can water stains on grasscloth be removed?
Rarely. Water moves the natural dyes and the size in grasscloth and leaves a ring that more water only spreads. We can dry clean the surface around it, but a marked panel is usually better replaced, which our wallpaper team can quote.
How do I know if my wallpaper is washable?
The label on the original roll shows it, if you still have one. Otherwise our supervisor checks the face and tests a hidden spot with a barely damp cloth. Vinyl stays unchanged, while paper backed and natural coverings darken or soften.
How much does wallpaper stain and mark removal cost in Al Thanyah First, Dubai?
We do not publish prices, because no two jobs are the same. The main factors: wall and ceiling area and ceiling height; condition of the surface and how much repair is needed. Book a site visit: a supervisor from The MELLS looks at the work and you receive a written quotation with a defined scope before anything begins.
Who provides wallpaper stain and mark removal in Al Thanyah First, Dubai?

How long does wallpaper stain and mark removal take?
Typically 2 to 4 hours for a feature wall and 1 to 2 days for several rooms. The time for your property is confirmed with the quotation.
Can old wallpaper be removed without damaging the wall?
In most cases. We soften the adhesive with steam or a stripping solution and lift the paper in sections. Where the wall was never primed, some skim can come away with it, and we make that good before the next finish.
Do you offer wallpaper fixing in Al Thanyah First, Dubai?
Yes. Our decorators hang wallpaper in villas, apartments, offices and shops across Dubai. Book a site visit and we measure the walls and check their condition first.
Can wallpaper go over a painted wall?
Yes, if the paint is sound, clean and matt. Glossy or flaking paint is sanded or stripped and the wall is primed, because paper only holds as well as the surface beneath it.
Do you arrange the building permit in Al Thanyah First, Dubai?
Yes. Most buildings ask contractors for a work permit, trade licence, insurance and staff IDs, and a service lift booking. We submit all of it for you.
Do you clean offices in Barsha Heights?
Yes. We run daily and weekly office cleaning contracts in Barsha Heights, scheduled before or after working hours.
