    Lads I want to wallpaper one wall in the bedroom. The wall is 13ft long and 8ft high. The wallpaper I'm after is 10m long and 52cm wide. I've calculated that I need 3 rolls. Is that right? Also, the wall is painted (vinyl matt)...please tell me it doesn't need to be stripped prior to hanging the paper.

    Well the 13ft by 8 ft is roughly the same as 4m by 2.5 meters. That's an area of 10 meters squared.

    The rolls you are buying are 10m by 0.52m. So one roll covers an area of 5.2 meters squared. So allowing for wastage, 3 rolls should be lots.
