Wallpaper Calculator lets you estimate wallpaper rolls in seconds: enter your wall area, coverage per roll and waste % for the number of rolls, all worked out locally in your browser.

Technical notes
Wallpaper Calculator divides the wall area by the coverage per roll and applies the waste % you enter.
Includes the waste % you enter; confirm coverage rates and material sizes with your supplier before ordering.
All arithmetic runs in your browser using double-precision floating point, so extreme inputs may show tiny rounding differences.
Worked example
A wall 4 m × 2.4 m is 9.6 m². A standard roll covers ~5 m² usable, so you need 2 rolls (allow for pattern repeat).
FAQ
How are wallpaper rolls estimated?
The wall area is divided by the coverage of one roll, with any waste percentage added, then rounded up.
Does the Wallpaper Calculator keep my entries private?
Yes. The Wallpaper Calculator runs in your browser, so nothing you enter is uploaded or saved.
Should I add extra for a pattern repeat?
Yes. A patterned paper wastes more at each strip, so add a waste percentage to be safe.
What if my rolls list a different coverage?
Enter the exact coverage from the label so the roll count matches your wallpaper.
