How do I calculate how much paint I need?
Measure the wall area (perimeter 鑴?height), subtract doors and windows (20 sq ft per door, 15 sq ft per window), then divide by paint coverage (typically 350 sq ft per gallon). Multiply by the number of coats. Our Paint Calculator handles all of this automatically.
How much extra flooring should I order for waste?
