Wall Preparation

Wall Cladding Panels

Wall Preparation

Prepare the installation surface correctly to achieve secure adhesion, clean panel alignment and a professional long-lasting finish.

Why preparation matters

The final result starts with the wall beneath

Even high-quality wall panels depend on a properly prepared installation surface. Dust, grease, moisture, loose material and significant unevenness may reduce adhesion or remain visible after installation.

Inspect the entire wall before measuring and applying adhesive. Correcting problems at this stage helps avoid installation delays and unnecessary material waste.

Four essential steps

Prepare the wall methodically

Complete these checks before cutting panels or opening the adhesive.

01

Clean the Surface

Remove dust, grease, soap residue and loose particles using suitable cleaning methods.

02

Repair Imperfections

Fill cracks, holes and damaged areas and allow repair materials to dry completely.

03

Ensure the Wall is Dry

Repair active moisture, leaks and structural dampness before installation.

04

Check Flatness

Correct significant bumps, hollows and uneven areas that could affect alignment.

Use a straight edge or spirit level to inspect the wall.
Before installation

Wall preparation checklist

Begin installation only after confirming that the complete surface is ready.

  • The wall is clean and free from contamination
  • The surface is completely dry
  • Cracks, holes and damaged areas are repaired
  • Loose paint, plaster and tiles are removed
  • The wall is stable and sufficiently flat
  • Openings and electrical points are measured
  • The correct adhesive has been selected
Common mistakes

Avoid problems before installation begins

Small preparation errors can affect adhesion, alignment and the final appearance of the panels.

Installing on a dusty wall Dust prevents the adhesive from bonding correctly.
Ignoring moisture Active dampness and leaks must be repaired first.
Leaving major unevenness Irregular walls may affect alignment and visible joints.
Using unsuitable adhesive Select adhesive for PVC panels and the specific surface.
