Measuring Service

If you are having issues measuring your wall we offer a measuring service. This service is provided by our installation team for a fee of AED100. 

You can purchase this service here.

This fee includes:

  • A full wall measurement. Our team will measure the widest and highest points (in cm) of any walls or surfaces that you intend to cover with a Stories For Walls wallpaper product.

  • An obstruction assessment. Our team will note down any major obstructions such as recesses, lowered ceilings, bulk heads, windows or door positions (and their dimensions), which may affect the aesthetics of a mural. Some features we may advise you to remove, (i.e. light fixtures, shelving etc), whilst other elements like windows or doors obviously cannot be removed, by noting their positions in the wall. We do not measure window sills, light switches or power point positions unless specifically requested to do so in writing to our sales team.

  • A wall type assessment. If your intended surface for your wallpaper is not drywall/gypsum, our team will make note of the surface type. Please note some materials like MDF, tiles or glossy surfaces may not work for our wallpaper adhesives. Please advise our sales team in writing if you intend the wallpaper to be stuck onto any surfaces other than drywall/gypsum.
  • Up to three free samples. You may request up to three samples for the team to bring along to the site vsit. You can add the designs in the comments box when you check out, or you can WhatsApp us and send us the links of the three designs you wish to see, and we will add those samples to your order for the team to bring to the site visit.

Our measuring team will take a photo of your wall to share with the design team to ensure any obstructions of the wall are taken into consideration before final artwork is sent to print. 

This fee does not include:

  • any wall preparation, treatment, sanding or painting etc.
  • any removal of old wallpapers or stickers
  • assessing your wall finish for imperfections
  • assessing whether your wall has been painted with paints that have stain resistant ingredients like teflon or latex which may affect our self adhesive products
  • determining exactly what type of paint is currently on your wall

The measuring team will send your measurements to our team to prepare for your quotation. Once our sales team has these measurements, we will send your quotation showing the sqm size of each wall and your project.

Knowledge of wall imperfections, the type of paint currently on your wall and your wall's preparation requirements before installation, is the full responsibility of the customer. Please hire a painter/decorator for advice on wall imperfections.
