50 calculators availableType in your project dimensions - length, width, height, pitch, or whatever the job requires. Every calculator supports both metric (metres) and imperial (feet and inches) units. Switch between them at any point without losing your figures. For irregular areas, use multiple rows and the calculator totals everything up.
Metric and imperial supportedResults update live as you type - no button to press. You get the net material quantity plus a recommended waste allowance baked in, so you are covered for cuts, breakages, and the inevitable off-cuts. Costs are calculated in your chosen currency, switchable from the navigation bar at any time.
