Carpet Calculators

Carpet Calculator

Estimate Your Carpet Materials

Carpet is sold by the square yard but estimated from room dimensions in square feet. The Carpet Calculator converts your room measurements to square yards, linear feet of roll, pad area, and an optional cost estimate. It accounts for roll width (12 or 15 feet) and waste factor — two variables that significantly affect how much material you actually need to buy.

Carpet typically goes in bedrooms and living areas, while tile covers bathrooms and kitchens. The Paint Calculator estimates wall paint for the same rooms. And if you're doing a full renovation, drywall and insulation may be part of the same project.
