Rooms & storage
Plan paint quantities before opening a tin
Build a paint ledger that separates walls, ceilings and primer, checks coverage assumptions, and turns measured areas into sensible unopened tin quantities.
The planning bench
Turn room measurements, coat count and manufacturer coverage into litres and whole tins.
Check measurements and units before ordering. Round up only where whole packs or tins are required. Keep your supplier’s specifications and your own actual usage records.
