1. Can I put wallpaper behind my washer and dryer?
Yes. Wallpapering the wall behind your machines creates a stunning focal point. We recommend installing the wallpaper before moving the machines into place. Ensure there is a small gap (about 1-2 inches) between the machines and the wall to allow heat to vent; this protects the adhesive on our Peel and Stick Canvas.
2. Is Peel and Stick Canvas heat resistant?
Our Peel and Stick Canvas is designed to withstand standard residential temperature fluctuations. However, it should not be applied directly to surfaces that get extremely hot (like the immediate back of an old dryer unit). As long as it is on the wall with standard ventilation, the radiant heat from a dryer cycle will not damage the finish.
3. What is the best wallpaper trend for laundry rooms in 2026?
The "Scullery" aesthetic is trending. This involves using faux texture wallpapers like our moisture-resistant Faux Grasscloth, brick, or shiplap to give the room a historic, built-in feel. Also popular are "whimsical" prints - since the laundry room is a private space, many homeowners experiment with fun patterns like lemons, birds, or retro geometrics.
4. How do I clean the wallpaper if detergent spills on it?
Our wallpapers are durable and maintenance-friendly. For Peel and Stick Canvas, simply dab the area gently with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid abrasive scrubbers or bleach-based cleaners, as these can damage the textured finish.
5. Can I use this wallpaper in a garage laundry station?
If the garage is climate-controlled (insulated), yes. If your garage experiences freezing temperatures in winter or extreme heat in summer, we recommend our Traditional Wallpaper (paste-the-wall) for the strongest long-term bond, as extreme temperature swings can sometimes affect self-adhesive backings.
