How much paint do I need?
Paint coverage varies by product and surface, but many interior paints cover around 350 to 400 square feet per gallon. This calculator estimates your wall area, subtracts approximate space for doors and windows, and multiplies the remaining area by the number of coats.
Typical assumptions
This calculator assumes an average door area of 21 square feet and an average window area of 15 square feet. For the most accurate result, always check the coverage listed on your paint container.
