If you are thinking about changing a wall with a mural, the first question is always the same: how much will it cost? The short answer is that the price of a custom wallpaper mural depends on two things: the square footage of your wall and the material you choose. Here is how it is calculated, with real examples, so you know the price before you start.
The price per square meter
At Tailor Murals, the price does not change based on the design: a marble mural costs the same as a floral or landscape one. The only thing that changes the price per m² is the material:
| Material | Price per m² | How to apply |
|---|---|---|
| Paste-the-wall paper | €47 | Apply glue to the wall and place the strip |
| Pre-pasted | €53 | Comes with adhesive: activated with water |
| Self-adhesive | €57 | No glue or water: peel and stick |
The smallest mural that can be ordered is one square meter, and with the paste-the-wall paper, it costs €47.
How to calculate the price for your wall
The calculation is simple: width × height of the wall, in meters, multiplied by the price of the material.
- Measure the width and height of the wall you want to cover, from corner to corner and from floor to ceiling (or wherever you want the mural to end).
- Multiply width by height to get the square meters.
- Multiply by the price of the material you prefer.
Three examples
| Wall | Surface | Paste-the-wall (€47/m²) | Pre-pasted (€53/m²) | Self-adhesive (€57/m²) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2 × 1.5 m (headboard) | 3 m² | €141 | €159 | €171 |
| 3 × 2.5 m (living room wall) | 7.5 m² | €352.50 | €397.50 | €427.50 |
| 4 × 2.5 m (large wall) | 10 m² | €470 | €530 | €570 |
On each mural's product page, the calculator does this math for you: enter the width and height of your wall, choose the material, and see the total before paying.
Which material is right for me?
- Paste-the-wall paper (€47/m²): the most economical. It is usually chosen by those who have wallpapered before, or by those who have an installer. It requires non-woven wallpaper paste, a roller, and a spatula.
- Pre-pasted (€53/m²): a middle ground. You don't need glue: just water and a sponge.
- Self-adhesive (€57/m²): the most convenient for installing on your own, because it doesn't need glue or water. You only need a measuring tape, level, utility knife, and a spatula.
If you are hesitating between them, think about who is going to install it and how much effort you want to put in, rather than the price difference: for a 7.5 m² wall, the difference between the cheapest and the most convenient is €75.
What else to keep in mind
- Shipping: is free. The mural arrives rolled in a rigid tube, within 3 to 5 business days from order confirmation.
- Installation: the mural price does not include an installer. If you are going to hire one, do not schedule them until the mural has arrived and you have inspected it. If you prefer to do it yourself, you have the step-by-step mural installation guide.
- The wall: all three materials are designed for smooth or lightly textured walls. If your wall has a heavy popcorn texture, exposed brick, or rough plaster, it is best to prepare it beforehand. The materials are semi-opaque, so the color underneath may show through on a dark wall.
Try it before you decide: samples
A mural is a big purchase, and the color on screen is not always what you see on your wall in your light. That is why there is the physical sample pack: they arrive printed on the same paper, so you can see them in your home before ordering the whole wall. It is especially useful if your wall is not white.
