Yes. Whether your wallcovering comes from Gracie Studio, a boutique design house, or elsewhere, we're happy to install materials you've already sourced.

We're based in Charleston, South Carolina, but we travel nationwide for the right projects — from intimate residential rooms to large-scale commercial installations.

Yes! We offer free estimates for projects within 20 miles of the Charleston peninsula. For locations 20 miles or more outside that radius, a $100 estimate fee applies.

Reach out through our inquiry form or email us directly with details about your space and materials. We'll follow up to schedule a walkthrough or review photos and provide a detailed estimate.

Yes — this is some of our favorite work. Historic homes bring unique challenges like out-of-plumb walls and uneven surfaces, and we have extensive experience delivering flawless results in exactly these conditions.

Pricing varies by project. Because no two jobs are alike — in size, materials, or complexity — we provide custom quotes rather than a set price list. This ensures you only pay for exactly what your project requires.

It depends on the scope, material, and condition of the walls. A single accent wall might take a day, while a full home or commercial project can take several weeks. We'll give you a clear timeline as part of your estimate.

We do not install peel and stick products. These materials are designed for DIY application and are not part of the professional installation services we offer. If you're unsure whether your project qualifies, feel free to reach out and we'll be happy to help point you in the right direction.

Our schedule fills up quickly, especially for larger or specialty installations. We recommend reaching out as soon as your materials are selected or ordered, even if your timeline is a few months out. We offer two scheduling options to fit your needs: clients with a specific timeline in mind can be placed on a projected schedule, while those with more flexibility can be added to our next-available queue. Depending on your situation, we can have your installation completed as soon as the next day — or plan ahead as far as needed.
