Formula

Net wall area = wall width × wall height − openings. Roll coverage = roll width × roll length. Rolls = net area ÷ roll coverage × (1 + waste%), rounded up.

Net wall area = wall width × wall height − openings. Roll coverage = roll width × roll length. Rolls = net area ÷ roll coverage × (1 + waste%), rounded up.

How it works

1

Enter the combined wall width and wall height.

2

Subtract large doors and windows if desired.

3

Enter the actual roll dimensions and your pattern/cutting allowance.

Important notes

Area-based estimates can undercount patterned wallpaper because strip layout and pattern repeats create additional waste. For complex patterns, use a larger allowance or a strip-based estimate.
