Thinking of revamping your space with wallpaper but asking yourself, "How much wallpaper do I need?" You’re definitely not alone—and don’t worry, it’s easier than you think. Determining the right amount of wallpaper to order doesn’t have to be a puzzle. In fact, with a few quick measurements or our easy-to-use wallpaper calculator, you’ll be set in no time.
This guide walks you through everything you need to know to confidently calculate the amount of wallpaper required for your project—whether you're a calculator lover or a fan of figuring things out manually.
Meet the Wallpaper Calculator: Your Easiest Option
Say hello to the tool that takes the guesswork out of wallpapering: our wallpaper calculator. Found on every product page, it's your one-stop solution for figuring out exactly how many double rolls to order.
Here’s How It Works:
-
Grab your measuring tape and record the width of your wall in inches.
-
Plug that number into the calculator.
-
Choose your preferred wallpaper height from the dropdown.
-
Voilà! It instantly gives you the recommended number of double rolls.
It’s fast, reliable, and so user-friendly that anyone can do it—no math degree required.
Quick Tip: The calculator takes care of all the tricky stuff like panel sizing, pattern repeats, and buffer space, ensuring you get an accurate result every time.
Want to Calculate It Yourself? No Problem!
If you'd rather crunch the numbers manually or just want to double-check, here's a simple breakdown to help you determine how much wallpaper you’ll need.
Manual Estimation Steps:
-
Measure the total wall width in inches.
-
Add 6 inches for bleed to account for any minor errors or trimming.
-
Divide the new total by:
-
23 for peel and stick or pre-pasted wallpaper
-
21 for textured wallpaper
The number you get is the count of wallpaper panels needed. Since a double roll contains two panels, divide by 2 to determine the number of double rolls.
Example:
Your wall measures 132 inches wide.
-
132 + 6 = 138 inches
-
138 ÷ 23 = 6 panels
-
6 panels ÷ 2 = 3 double rolls
Easy peasy.
Bonus Idea: Got an extra panel? Use it for a mini project like lining drawers or backing a bookshelf to tie your space together!
