21 calculators

- Mulch CalculatorCalculate how much mulch you need in cubic yards and 2 cubic foot bags to cover a garden bed at your chosen depth.
- Roofing CalculatorEstimate roof area, roofing squares, and the number of shingle bundles needed from the building footprint and roof pitch.
- Tile CalculatorWork out how many tiles and boxes you need for a floor or wall, including grout lines, a waste allowance for your layout, and the total cost.
- Paint CalculatorWork out how much paint a room needs from its dimensions, number of coats, doors, and windows — with the ceiling, primer, and total cost included.
- Stair CalculatorCalculate riser height, tread depth, stringer length, and total run from your floor-to-floor rise — with code compliance checked as you go.
- Roof Pitch CalculatorConvert roof pitch between rise-per-12, degrees, and percentage grade, and get the rafter length, slope factor, and true roof area.
- Brick CalculatorEstimate how many bricks a wall needs from its dimensions, the brick size, and the mortar joint, with a wastage allowance and bricks-per-square-metre figure.
- Fence CalculatorEstimate the posts, rails, and pickets a fence needs from its length, post spacing, and picket width, with concrete bags for setting the posts.
