Paint Calculator
How much paint your room needs, in gallons and liters
Walls (length x height, ft)
Doors and windows to subtract
Honest note: 350 sq ft per gallon is a typical one-coat figure for smooth walls. Rough, porous or unpainted drywall drinks more paint, so check your paint can and lower this number if your surface is thirsty.

About this tool
IconVault's Paint Calculator estimates how much paint a room needs from real measurements. Add each wall's width and height, subtract doors and windows as openings, choose your number of coats and your paint's coverage per gallon, and it computes the paintable area plus the gallons and liters required, including a rounded-up buy quantity so you do not run short mid-wall.
It is free, needs no signup, and runs fully in your browser. The honest caveat: this is an estimate, not a guarantee. Real coverage varies with paint brand, color change, surface texture and application method, so buy a little extra and check the coverage figure printed on your paint can.
