How our estimates work (quick)
Our calculators convert your measurements into practical purchase quantities (gallons, bags, boxes, cubic yards/meters) and then help you round and buffer safely.
- Use finished dimensions (installed area), not rough framing.
- Add a small waste/buffer when cuts, breakage, or compaction are expected.
- Prefer product labels and supplier specs when you have them.
See Methodology and Editorial policy for how we source assumptions and keep content up to date.
