A pattern repeat measurement is the point in a fabrics’ pattern at which that same point in that pattern is repeated.

A half drop repeat means that the pattern starts to repeat half way down the fabrics length. This allows for more variation across the design. Depending on your required length, you will have to stagger how you attach the fabric to ensure that the pattern matches.

Many fabrics will have a rub test or a Martindale Test. This process involves the fabric being mechanically rubbed until the point at which it begins to break.

As a rough guide, typically a fabric with over 30,000 rubs will be suitable for contract use. However, as this is not always the case, you can use the ‘Fabric Usage’ filter to find fabrics that are suitable.

If you have any doubts, please contact us and we can advise you further.

Have a look at our helpful guide to measuring for curtains or if you would prefer for us to make the calculations for you, please don’t hesitate to contact us.

On our website, you can filter by ‘Fabric Usage’ to make sure that you are selecting fabrics that are suitable for upholstery.

If you have any questions or are unsure about a particular fabric, please contact us and we can advise you. 

We recommend that all our curtains should be dry cleaned to ensure that they maintain their fabric condition and finish.

There are some classic designs that are printed over and over again, so it is possible that the fabric is still around. If you can send us a photo of the item, our knowledgeable team will try to identify the design. If unfortunately, we find that the fabric is discontinued, we will always offer you some alternative suggestions.

Yes, we do. It is impossible to show every design from the extensive ranges that we supply, so instead we choose a selection. However, if you do see something you like, please contact us for more information.

A pattern repeat measurement is the point in a wallpapers pattern at which that same point in that pattern is repeated.

A half drop repeat means that the pattern starts to repeat half way down the wallpaper drop. Depending on the length of your wall, you will have to stagger how you hang the wallpaper to ensure that the pattern matches.

Step by Step

1) Measure the width of your wall
2) Divide this figure by the width of your wallpaper. This number is the number of drops (strips) of wallpaper you need. Remember, you may have to round the number up.
3) Multiply the number of drops by the height of your wall. This will be the number of meters you will need excluding the pattern repeat.

If your wallpaper has a pattern repeat
4) Multiply your wallpaper pattern repeat number by the number of drops you need minus one
5) Add this figure to the meters needed without the pattern repeat number. This is the final number of meters you will need covering your wall.

Example:

• Wallpaper roll is 52cms wide.
• It has a 42cms pattern repeat
• Wallpaper roll is 10 meters in length
• Wall width is 450cms,
• Wall height is 230cms

1) 450 cms (wall width) / 52 (wallpaper width) = 8.65
2) 8.65 = 9 drops (rounded up)
3) 9 (number of drops) x 230 (wall height) = 2070 cms

If you have a pattern repeat
4) 42 cms (pattern repeat) x 8 (number of drops -1) = 336cms
5) 336 + 2070 = 2406cms (24.06mtrs)
6) As there is 10 metres in a roll you will need to purchase 3 rolls.

We would strongly advise you to use ready mixed paste to achieve a superior finish and we can not be take any responsibility should the wallpaper overstretch, become difficult to handle or discolour. Shop our wallpaper paste range.

Our quantity guide recommends

• 2.5kg tub will cover approx 25 meters of wallpaper
• 5kg tub will cover approx 5 rolls
• 10kg tub will cover approx 10 rolls

The most important thing to consider is the condition of your walls. The better the condition, the more options you have.

If your walls are damaged, we strongly advised that you have them repaired before you decorate. Slight damage to plaster can be covered up by lining paper and then wallpapering on top.

Your decorator should be able to advise you if you are unsure.

Unfortunately we don't sell crayons but we recommend you to buy any good quality insoluble crayon from a stationers or art supplier.

Yes, we do. It is impossible to show every design from the extensive ranges that we supply, so instead we choose a selection. However, if you do see something you like, please contact us for more information.

Yes, wall panels can be sized to order. If you contact us with your measurements, we can email you an image of how it will look on your wall.

Wall panels are the same as wallpaper and are made of non woven paper. They are applied using a ready mixed wallpaper paste which will have to be bought separately unless stated otherwise.

See our handy guide on how to hang your wall panels here.

The panel comes on a roll like wallpaper. It has markings which show the different sections for easy guided application.

Once you have placed an order a member of staff will be in contact to check that you are happy with the specifications. Next, they will send out samples of fabric, wood and/or stud detailing to you to check that you are happy to go ahead with the build.

Please note: fabrics viewed on the website may vary in colour from that seen on your monitor, therefore we recommend you see a sample before ordering.

We will ensure that the fabric pattern always matches up; however the pattern repeats may vary from the ones shown on our 3D model designs.

Mixing and matching is a creative and fun way to express your personal style at home. There is beauty and harmony in blending and balancing a wealth of varying elements like patterns, colours and texture.

Firstly, think of your colour scheme. A good rule is to start with a plain fabric in that colour and complement it with a stripe or a check. You can add a plain velvet in a statement colour for a bit of flare or a luxury trimming to inject some texture and interest into your room.

Our schemes builder is a fantastic way of playing around with mixing and matching different colours and patterns.

Decorating a child’s bedrooms can be so much fun as you can introduce colours, patterns and details to match your child’s personality. It is also important to think about your child's current interests and needs so you can opt for furniture that has longevity and will also be practical.
