A defined wallpaper installation job

This fictional project is located in Leicester . Install selected wallpaper over 24.2 sq m of suitable prepared wall in two rooms. Include wall review, light preparation, 29 sq m material allowance, layout, hanging labour, edge detailing and clean-up. Existing wallpaper removal and major wall repair excluded. The written scope is the boundary of the example: a customer should be able to match each planned task to a line in the document, and see where a product choice or hidden condition still needs checking.

Read every amount in pounds

The table reproduces the fixture sent to the app exporter. Each amount is its quantity multiplied by the shown unit rate, rounded to pence. The largest line is Wallpaper material allowance at £1,123.75 ; that is a part of the total, not a standard price for work of this kind. Check the unit, quantity and scope together before comparing lines with a real supplier or subcontractor quote.

Wallpaper installation in Leicester — GBP, fictional inputs Work item | Quantity | Unit rate | Amount |

Wall review and layout | 1 lump sum | £144.00 | £144.00 |

Wallpaper material allowance | 29 sq m | £38.75 | £1,123.75 |

The PDF's 0% tax input and zero markup are example settings; determine the correct inputs for your own work.

What this example assumes

The 29 sq m material allowance is illustrative. Recalculate actual rolls for the chosen paper, match and usable lengths before purchasing.

Work outside the example: No existing wallpaper removal, major plaster repair, furniture moving, wall painting or specialty mural alignment.

The quantity basis matters. Where a product allowance differs from an installation quantity, the difference reflects this fictional layout or purchase plan and must be checked against the selected product. Existing conditions, safe access and any necessary approvals remain project decisions. Agree how changed measurements or discoveries will be recorded and priced before extra work begins.

No. Roll size, drop length and pattern repeat affect purchase quantity. Recalculate for the selected product.

Is old wallpaper removal included?

Only if listed. This example assumes suitable prepared walls.
