Formula, assumptions & limitations

Inputs used: Room length (ft); Room width (ft); Wall height (ft); Door area (sq ft); Window area (sq ft); Repeat/waste (%); Usable coverage per roll (sq ft); Price per roll ($).

Method: Room perimeter × height, less openings, plus the selected pattern-repeat and cutting allowance; rolls round up.

Use the manufacturer's usable coverage, not only nominal roll area. Pattern repeat, wall condition, paste, tools, delivery, labor, and tax are excluded.

How this tool works

Wall area is calculated from room perimeter × wall height with entered openings removed, then divided by usable roll coverage and rounded up.

Limits to know

Usable roll coverage—not nominal roll area—must reflect the product and pattern repeat. Wall condition, matching, trimming, openings, offcuts, batch matching, paste, and installer technique can change roll count.
