How many rolls do I need?

To figure out the number of rolls of wallpaper you will require, simply follow the below steps.

• Measure the distance around the room (include walls with doors and windows)
• Measure the height of the walls from the skirtings
• Use the below roll reckoner to work out how many rolls you need for the room

Important note - the measurements below are based on a standard roll of 0.5 metre wide x 10 metres long. Check the measurements on the paper you have chosen, and adjust the roll count accordingly.

If the wallpaper you have chosen has a pattern match, you will need to take that into account when using the charts below.
