The service

What is not part of accent wall installation
Knowing where the line is keeps the visit on track and keeps you safe. When a job belongs to a specialist, NorTech tells you before you book.
- Any job where labor and materials together reach $1,000 or more. A licensed contractor handles anything past that line, flagged by NorTech before booking.
- Moving or adding outlets, switches or lighting inside the wall. That is a licensed electrician.
- Opening the wall, building out a niche or changing framing, which is carpentry or licensed construction.
- Removing old wallpaper in poor condition. Wallpaper removal is its own service with its own prep.
- Sanding old wall paint in a pre-1978 home before telling your pro. Old paint may contain lead, so testing comes first.
- Painting the rest of the room or the ceiling, unless you book interior painting alongside.

Before you book accent wall installation
Quick things that save a trip. Tick them off as you go; none of it is required to book.
Pick the wall and photograph it
Take a straight-on photo of the wall with its outlets, vents and windows, and a photo of the room. The pro can then judge layout, cuts and prep.
Choose the finish before you book
Decide whether you want paint, wallpaper or wood, and bring a sample. Different finishes need different prep, so the choice changes the quote.
Order extra material
Wallpaper needs extra for pattern matching and mistakes, and boards need extra for cuts. Buy from the same batch so color and pattern stay consistent.
Test the color on the wall
Paint a large swatch on the wall and look at it morning, noon and evening. Dark colors read differently from the chip, especially next to white trim.
Clear the wall and floor
Take down art and mirrors, remove outlet covers if you like, and move furniture out of the way. A clear wall gets straighter lines.
Check the home age
In a home built before 1978, tell your pro before sanding. Testing for lead is easier before the prep than after.
Say where in San Bruno you are
Add your neighborhood, for example Belle Air, Crestmoor, and Rollingwood, or your ZIP code to your notes. Pros choose the neighborhoods they cover, and it tells them how far they have to travel.
