Mural Wallpaper Hung in Coconut Creek Homes

The short answer

We install printed wall murals in Coconut Creek homes, working from measurements taken before you order. Each panel is hung in sequence from a plumb line and aligned across the seams so the image reads as one continuous picture.

Coconut Creek has a reputation for green space, butterflies and tree-lined streets, and plenty of residents want some of that outdoor feeling on an inside wall. A printed mural is the easiest way to get it: a lush jungle, a soft forest, a wash of watercolor sky or a detailed map spread edge to edge across one surface. We travel roughly five miles west from Pompano Beach to install murals in 33066 and 33073, in single-family homes, villas, townhouses and condos. A mural asks for more precision than ordinary wallpaper, so this page walks through how we handle it.

Why murals need a different approach

With repeating wallpaper, an installer can lose an inch here or there and the pattern still lines up. A mural is one picture divided into panels, so every panel has exactly one correct position. If the first panel goes up a quarter inch off vertical, the error grows across the wall and the image starts to tilt. If the panels are hung out of sequence, the scene breaks apart.

That is why we treat mural work as layout work first. The hanging itself is only the final step of a careful plan.

What we need before you buy

Mural companies print to the dimensions you give them, so accurate numbers save money and frustration. We come out, measure the wall at several points, and tell you how much extra to add on each edge. We also mark where windows, doors or outlets fall and where the main subject should sit.

Many Coconut Creek living rooms have a TV wall or a long sofa wall, and you may want a key element such as a tree trunk, a horizon line or a flock of birds positioned where it will not disappear behind furniture. We can mock that up with tape so you can see it before ordering.

Paper, nonwoven or vinyl

Nonwoven murals are the most common choice for bedrooms and living areas: paste goes on the wall, panels slide into place and later strip off whole. Vinyl or coated murals tolerate splashes and scuffs, which makes them better for kids' playrooms and powder rooms. Peel-and-stick murals are appealing for renters, but in Broward County's humid months their adhesive can lose grip on porous builder paint. When a mural is meant to stay for years, paste-applied material tends to be more dependable.

Prepping the wall for a large image

Murals magnify flaws. Broad areas of sky or water show every bump and ridge under a ceiling light or window glare. We fill holes, flatten texture, sand patched areas and apply a primer that evens out the wall color and helps paste adhere. Newly painted walls need curing time before we hang, so let us know if you have painted recently.

Exterior walls in concrete-block homes can sometimes feel cool and damp in the summer because the block holds moisture. We check for that and, if needed, choose a breathable substrate or recommend letting the wall dry out first.

On the day

We roll the panels out on a clean floor and check their order against the diagram from the printer. A laser level sets the starting edge. Each panel is placed against the previous one, with the image aligned at the seam, and smoothed carefully to push out air without stretching the material. Inside corners get a split and slight overlap so the picture continues; outlets and switches get neat cutouts. Finally, we trim the bleed at the ceiling and baseboard and look at the wall with you from across the room.

Ideas and service area

Popular choices here include botanical canopies, butterfly and bird studies, soft beach scenes and abstract color fields. A mural can also make a narrow hallway feel wider or give a home office a backdrop for video calls. We hang murals in Coconut Creek, Margate, Deerfield Beach, Parkland, North Lauderdale and Lighthouse Point.

  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.

    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 install a mural I ordered myself?

Yes. If possible, share the product listing before you order so we can confirm the dimensions and material suit the wall.

What happens if the mural arrives too small?

If it falls short of the wall, there is no good fix. That is why we measure first and recommend ordering with extra bleed.

How long does a mural take to install?

A single wall is usually completed within a day, including prep. Larger or multi-wall murals need more time.

Can a mural go around a corner?

Yes. We split the panel at the corner and overlap slightly so the image continues without a visible gap.

Will a mural survive Florida humidity?

Paste-applied murals on primed walls in air-conditioned rooms hold up well. Avoid shower areas and walls that stay damp.

Can the mural be removed later?

Most nonwoven murals hung over primer strip off in panels when you are ready for a change.
