General Questions

At Wall Snobs, we decided to sell wallpaper as panels instead of double rolls for a multitude of reasons. First of all, we have reduced the amount of waste not only in the production process. We also are limiting the waste for our customers. You no longer have to worry about that pesky vertical repeat that makes you waste 12ft on every double roll.

Another reason for producing panels is the scale of patterns. We are able to produce large scale repeats. Some of our patterns even have a horizontal repeat of 150"!

Pattern repeat can be broken down into two areas. The vertical repeat and horizontal repeat.

Vertical Repeat: The vertical repeat is how often the pattern is repeated vertically. You will commonly see 12.5", 25" and 50".

Horizontal Repeat: The horizontal repeat is the main repeat that we care about. This is where our panels really excel! A lot of our patterns repeat at 12.5" or 25". A 12.5" repeat means that the pattern will repeat twice on each panel. Where a 25" repeat, will only be once.

Large horizontal repeats are a little different. If a pattern has a 50" repeat, we will send you a panel "A" and a panel "B". Which would be installed in that order. A 75" pattern would be "A,B,C".

The majority of our wallpaper is 25". We also print on natural material that is 34" wide untrimmed. Lastly, we offer naturals that are 36" wide.

25" Wide: Matte, Premium Matte, Cabretta, Lustrous

34" Wide: Paper weave & Grasscloth weave

36" Wide: Cork & Wood veneer

*For contract jobs and custom orders, we can product up to 52" wide panels.

Installation

We utilize an overlap on our wallpaper to facilitate as seamless of an installation as possible. When an installer is skilled in double cutting overlap. The two panels will be cut together causing a clean seam.

Double cutting is an installation process that uses an overlap on the wallpaper to perfectly match up the pattern. A skilled installer will overlap the panel by 1". Then cut through both sheets of wallpaper.
