How much do you need to wallpaper on the room? How to calculate

Previously, in Soviet times, many glued wallpapers themselves. This is today you can hire people who can do everything for you. Your task is to only provide them with money to buy materials and to pay for their work. But still there were still enthusiasts, which even with a shortage of time try to make repair with their own hands. And almost any repair, this is an update of wallpapers in the room or in the entire apartment apartment. It's not difficult to buy wallpaper today. There are a lot of them in stores, any, and cheap and expensive. Here everyone will expect from their capabilities. But, in order for the wallpaper not to overpay and not buy an extra roll (and sometimes a few), you need to be able to calculate (and exactly), how many wallpapers will be required to you on one or another room. Complete here, in principle, there is nothing. You just need to know certain numbers and own a little mathematics. With this problems, I suppose, most of us have no.

How to calculate how much wallpaper do you need?

So, remember mathematics, we make the necessary measurements and calculate the desired number of wallpaper. The main thing is to calculate correctly, because the wallpaper today makes different widths. It is not earlier when all rolls were the same and you always knew the exact width of the roll.

Let's start "dance" from the roll roll. Its width, it is 53 centimeters and another indicator - the length is also standard, that is, 10 meters. The second indicator you need to know necessarily is the height of your ceilings. Most of us live in apartments where the floor ceilings separate 2 and a half meters, that is, it is 2 meters of 50 centimeters. It is this height that we will take as basic for our calculations. Thus, these 10 meters of our standard roll is enough for us to cut 3 bands from it. This is if the drawing on your wallpaper will be quite large. If this drawing is small, then most likely you caulate and all 4 bands, which, of course, is even better. The same 4 bands can be calmly cut if the wallpaper is generally monophonic, without any drawing. Such strips do not need to be customized at all.

Next you will need to calculate what your room is around the perimeter. I remember school, and make the calculation, that is, just fold all the sides of your room. That amount you will see on the calculator as a result of this complex mathematical action, to share by 0.53. I think it is clear that this is the width of your roll of wallpaper in meters. That is the case, you will understand how many bands you will need to stick the whole of your room. The calculation continues further, and divide this figure for another 3. Numen 3 This is the number of bands that you can cut from the roll if the drawing you will be customized. That is a non-target number (in most likely it will be so), which you will succeed in dividing 3, you will need to be reinforced and only in the most side. It is this number that will indicate you the number of rolls, which you need to stick this room. If your simple wallpaper is simple and without a picture, you will not work fit, and, accordingly, instead of 3-ki you will share for 4.

Non-standard width of wallpaper. How to calculate here?

It is clear that not everyone uses wallpaper only a standard width, that is, it is 53 cm. Perhaps you liked the wallpaper completely different width. Well, for example, a little more than a meter, usually 1.06 m. The width of them, however, is usually the same, that is, the same 10 meters.

You need to count here again, that is, again the same perimeter of your room is divided into the width of the roll of wallpaper (we have 1.06), and then we divide again on the number of strips that can be chopped from the roll (that is, 3 or 4). Do not forget, again the figure is rounded, so as not to stay at the end of the adhesive of your room without missing a piece of wallpaper.

It is clear that in each room there is a door through which we enter this room and come in, and maybe not one if the room has a passage. In addition to the door, there are also windows (again there may be several). TU area that is above the door, above and under the window, is usually saved from those strips that remain. And such strips you will have necessarily. They can even be adjusted, for sure and it will work. If the wallpaper you buy without the need for their fit, that is, one-photon either with a small completely pattern, then they will be cut on your strips almost all (usually 4 strips from a whole roll). So, you may not stay remnants, and therefore it is possible that you will have to buy another roll for sticking to all these places. Everything in this case will be determined by the number of doors themselves and windows. But, always better when the wallpaper is a little longer than when you have to run to the store for an additional roll.

How to calculate? Simple example

You have to "refresh" the room, the length of the walls in which, and their width of 4 and 5 meters, that is, the perimeter of your room will be thus 18 meters. Ceilings you, like many, standard, that is, the same 2, 5 meters. You liked the standard wallpaper, on your width, that is, it is 0.53 m. So you take leaves and consider. You get this: 18m: 0.53m: 3 strips \u003d 11.32. These 11.32 are just rounded and go to the store for the 12th rolls. Now, I hope there will be no problems with the calculation of the number of wallpaper.
