💡 Bhai Ki Advice (Paint Contractor Ka Khel): Ghar paint karwate waqt contractors aksar material mein dandi maarte hain. Wo aapse mehange ‘Washable/Royale’ paint ka paisa lenge, par base (Putty aur Primer) ekdum sasta laga denge. Yaad rakhna—bina achhe primer aur putty ke mehanga paint bhi 1 saal mein papdi (peeling) ban kar gir jayega! Is tool se aap exactly calculate kar sakte ho ki kitne litre paint aur primer lagega. Best strategy ye hai ki Material khud khareedo aur contractor ko sirf ‘Labour Rate’ (per sq ft) par kaam do!

How to Calculate Your Painting Budget
Use our tool to get a highly accurate estimate of your painting requirements:
- Enter Your Carpet Area: The ‘Paintable Area’ is much larger than your floor area. As a rule of thumb, the paintable wall and ceiling area is approximately 3.5 to 4 times your home’s carpet area. Our tool calculates this automatically.
- Select Fresh Painting vs. Repainting:
- Fresh Painting: Requires 2 coats of Wall Putty, 1 coat of Primer, and 2-3 coats of Paint.
- Repainting: Usually requires minor putty touch-ups, 1 coat of Primer (optional if same color), and 1-2 coats of Paint.
- Choose Interior or Exterior: Exterior walls require weather-proof and dust-proof paints (like Apex or Ultima), which have different coverage areas compared to interior luxury emulsions (like Royale).
- Check Material Quantities: The output will give you precise quantities: Liters of Paint, Liters of Primer, and Kg of Putty needed for your specific dimensions.
