Frequently Asked Questions

Measure your room's perimeter and height. Divide the wall height by the roll length to determine drops per roll. Divide the total number of drops needed by drops per roll. Account for pattern repeat waste by adding the pattern repeat to each drop length.
Single rolls (21" × 16.5 ft) cover about 29 sq ft. Double rolls (21" × 33 ft) are twice the length at about 58 sq ft. European rolls (20.5" × 33 ft) are slightly narrower. Double rolls are the most common and economical for most projects.
Pattern repeat adds waste because each strip must align with the next. A larger pattern repeat means more waste. For example, a 24-inch pattern repeat can add up to 25% waste. This calculator adjusts the effective roll length based on your pattern repeat size.
Yes, subtract the area of doors (21 sq ft each) and windows (15 sq ft each) from the total wall area. This calculator automatically subtracts these openings, but it also adds a small waste buffer to ensure you have enough wallpaper for matching patterns and trimming.
Wallpaper costs vary widely from $20 to $200+ per roll depending on the brand, material, and design. Standard vinyl or paper wallpapers typically cost $30–$60 per double roll. Designer or textured wallpapers can cost significantly more.
