Estimates you can take to the store

Every MaterialSizer calculator ends in a materials schedule, not just a number. Quantities include a stated waste allowance and are rounded to the units the store actually sells, so “2.35 gallons” becomes two gallons and two quarts. Each schedule points to the next thing the project needs, from primer to painter’s tape.

Formulas, assumptions and worked examples are printed on every page, and every formula is checked by automated tests against its worked example. How we calculate.
