About CalcMyHome

CalcMyHome is a small, free website for people doing a home project or planning a move. The idea is simple: most home projects fail at the buying stage — too little paint, too few boxes of flooring, not enough concrete — and the fix is a few minutes of honest arithmetic before you go to the store.

Every calculator on this site does the same job: take your measurements, apply a standard formula, add a realistic waste allowance, and turn the answer into a shopping list you can print. Where a number depends on the product or the place — paint coverage, material prices, moving rates — we show it as an editable estimate and say so, rather than pretending to know your local price.

What we cover

• Paint — walls, ceiling, trim and primer, in gallons and litres.
• Flooring and tile — laminate, vinyl plank and tile, room by room.
• Concrete and decking — slabs, bags, boards, joists and screws.
• Moving — DIY vs professional costs as a range, plus boxes and a packing checklist.

What we are not

We are not a contractor, a mover, or a building-code authority. Our results are planning estimates. For structural work, electrical or plumbing work, lead paint, or anything covered by local building codes, please get a qualified professional. See our Terms for the full disclaimer.
