This tool calculates the amount of paint you need based on the dimensions of your walls.
How to Use the Paint Calculator:
To calculate how much paint you need, simply fill in the form with the following parameters:
- Length of the wall: Enter the length of the wall in meters.
- Width of the wall: Enter the width of the wall in meters.

Explanation of Calculations:
The calculator works based on the formula:
Total Paint Required (liters) = Total Surface Area / Paint Coverage * Number of Coats
Where:
- Total Surface Area = (2*(Length*Height + Width*Height)) – Area of Doors – Area of Windows
- Area of one Door = 1.9 square meters
- Area of one Window = 1.5 square meters
Limitations:
Please note that this calculator makes a few simple assumptions:
- The area of one door is taken as 1.9 square meters.
- The area of one window is taken as 1.5 square meters.
- Surfaces such as ceilings, trims, and other details are not included in this calculation.
- Curved or irregularly shaped walls are not considered.
