Our calculator helps you find the area of a home, building, construction area, and garden in square feet, square meters.When measuring odd-shaped rooms, which might be U-shaped rooms or rooms with nooks, you will also need to separate the room into individual shapes in order to calculate the room\u2019s total floor space. In the example below, there is a trapezoid area next to the dining table. To calculate the floor space, first find the area of the main living space, which is 18.68 feet by 15 feet, or 280 square feet. To calculate the area of the trapezoid, we'll need to know the lengths and the height of the trapezoid. In this case, the lengths are 11.43 feet and 6.11 feet, while the height is 2.66 feet. In this case, the lengths are 11.43 feet and 6.11 feet, while the height is 2.66 feet. Entering this into the square footage calculator above, we\u2019re able to find that the area of the trapezoid is 23 square feet. Adding this to the main living space, the total square footage of the kitchen, living, and dining area is 303 square feet.

Our square foot calculator helps you find the area of a home, building, construction area, and garden in square feet, square meters, and square yards. You can find the cost of the area using the cost per square foot for landscaping projects or other projects that require building materials. To calculate the square footage of an area, you first need to find the required dimensions for the appropriate shape. For example, for a rectangular room in need of new flooring, you would need to multiply the length and width. If the shape of your room is irregular, then it would be best to divide the area into smaller shapes and add up the individual areas.
How to Use This Calculator
To use this square foot calculator, you will first need to select the shape of the area that you are trying to calculate. This might be a room in your house or a section of your garden that you are measuring. For more complex shapes, such as irregular areas, you will need to split it up into separate shapes, calculate the area of each shape, and then add them up.
To calculate the square footage of a rectangular or square room, you will need to know the length and width of the room. This calculator also gives you the option to calculate the area of an L-shaped space, or to calculate the area as a border. For example, you might select the option to calculate it as a border if you're measuring the square footage of a garden around your house. The inner part will be your home, which means that the calculator will then find the area outside of the home needed for landscaping.
With this calculator, you can also find the total area of circles, triangles, trapezoids, quadrilaterals, and sectors. You also have the option to enter a price per square foot, which will calculate the total cost of the area.
Example of an Irregular Area Calculation
Let\u2019s assume the area you want to calculate looks like this:
If you have the different heights of each section, the total length of the area, and the smaller bottom length, the total area can be split up into 3 shapes. First, the rectangle\u2019s area would be S2 * S3.
Next, we can find the triangle\u2019s area using the length of the rectangle because it is also the triangle\u2019s base, so the area of the triangle would be S3 * S1 / 2. Lastly, the area of the trapezoid can be found with the formula (S5 + S3) / 2 * S4. Splitting up the area into individual shapes is an easy way to find the total area of any given odd shape as long as you have the appropriate measurements.
How to Convert Square Footage to Yards/Meters
To convert between units for a given area, you can use these conversion factors:
Square Feet \u2192 Square Yards: Divide ft2 by 9
Square Feet \u2192 Square Meters: Multiply ft2 by .092903
Square Yards \u2192 Square Feet: Multiply yd2 by 9
Square Yards \u2192 Square Meters: Multiple yd2 by .836217
Square Meters \u2192 Square Feet: Multiply m2 by 10.763915
Square Meters \u2192 Square Yards: Multiply m2 by 1.19599
Converting between units2 is similar to converting between regular units. The only difference is the conversion between units2 is the conversion between units done twice. For example, to convert from feet to yards, you would divide ft by 3, but to convert from square feet to square yards, you would divide by 3 and then divide by 3 again. This is the same as dividing by 32 or 9.

How to Find the Square Footage of a Quadrilateral
It is much easier to find the area of a quadrilateral with 2 angles, so the method shown below is recommended.
This method is called \u201cBretschneider's Formula\u201d.
If you only have access to one angle (Angle A), you can calculate the other angle and then use the above formula to find the total area.
How to Measure the Square Footage of a House
To find the square footage of a house, you will first need to have a way to measure the size of each room in your house. Traditional metal tape measures can be used, but laser measuring devices are more commonly used by professional home appraisers. A laser measure is easy to use, can measure far distances without needing help, and they are also more accurate than tape measures. Plus, laser tape measures aren\u2019t significantly more expensive compared to traditional tape measures either.
When trying to figure out how to calculate the square feet of a house, the calculations will vary depending on how complex the house is. For example, if your house is a single rectangular room, then you can easily calculate the square footage by multiplying its length by its width in feet. For homes with more complicated floor plans, you will need to break up the homes into easily measurable spaces.
Example: Measuring the Square Footage of a Condominium
When calculating the square footage of a condo, you'll include all livable and enclosed spaces, such as the kitchen, living areas, bathrooms, bedrooms, closets, and hallways. The size of your balcony or terrace is not included in the square footage of a condo, since it doesn\u2019t count as a living space.
For example, let\u2019s measure a 2-bedroom condo with the following floor plan.
Depending on your location, square footage of a condo or apartment might include everything inside your condo unit, including up to the exterior walls. With this calculation, you can simply multiply 25 feet by 26.63 feet, which gives a total of 665 square feet.
To exclude walls, you can also measure the size of rooms individually in order to get the total livable square footage of the condo.
With these individual room spaces:
Dining/Living Room: 27.50 feet x 12.32 feet + 5.95 feet x 3.27 feet = 358 square feet
The total livable square footage of this condo is around 662 square feet, which is slightly less than the 665 square feet when including the exterior walls.
Example: Measuring the Square Footage of a Condominium with a Hallway
Hallways can take up a lot of valuable living space, and this can be a particularly larger issue in more expensive cities. Hallways are often included in the square footage of apartments and condos. Let\u2019s take a look at the example below to find out how to calculate the square footage of a condo with an interior hallway.
Living/Dining Room: (10.07 feet x 19.44 feet) + (3.59 feet x 7.89 feet) = 224 square feet
Hallway: 16.43 feet x 2.76 feet = 45 square feet
Total Square Footage: 673 square feet
The total square footage of this 2-bedroom condo is 673 square feet, of which 45 square feet is from the hallway. Considering that the price per square foot of condos can be as high as $1,792 in Manhattan or $1,126 in San Francisco, hallway space can be seen as underutilized space in expensive areas. Based on the average price per square foot in Manhattan, this hallway in the floor plan above would cost over $80,000!
Calculating the Floor Space of an L-Shaped Room
Did you know that you can use the square footage calculator on this page to find the floor space of an L-shaped room? For example, let\u2019s take a look at this L-shaped living room.
To use this calculator to calculate the square footage of this room, you will first enter the size of the room as if it was a full rectangle: 15 feet by 22.83 feet. Then, you will enter the secondary width and secondary length, which is the width and length of the smaller rectangle that needs to be taken out to form the room\u2019s L-shape. This space is 9.03 feet by 8.96 feet.
Using the calculator, the square footage of this living room is 261.54 square feet. To calculate this manually:
(22.83 x 15) - (9.03 x 8.96) = 261.54 square feet
You can also break the area down into two rectangles, and then add it up to get the total -shaped area (13.74 x 15) + (9.03 x 5.91).
This same calculation can be used to measure the square feet of a room with closets by separating the room into separate zones. After measuring the size of the main room, you\u2019ll then add the area of the closet to the total.
Measuring the Floor Space of an Odd-Shaped Room
When measuring odd-shaped rooms, which might be U-shaped rooms or rooms with nooks, you will also need to separate the room into individual shapes in order to calculate the room\u2019s total floor space. In the example below, there is a trapezoid area next to the dining table.
To calculate the floor space, first find the area of the main living space, which is 18.68 feet by 15 feet, or 280 square feet. To calculate the area of the trapezoid, we'll need to know the lengths and the height of the trapezoid. In this case, the lengths are 11.43 feet and 6.11 feet, while the height is 2.66 feet.
Entering this into the square footage calculator above, we\u2019re able to find that the area of the trapezoid is 23 square feet. Adding this to the main living space, the total square footage of the kitchen, living, and dining area is 303 square feet.
Measuring the Floor Space of a Semicircular Room
Semicircular rooms, or U-shaped living rooms, will require you to know just the diameter of the room or space. Sometimes you are only able to measure the radius of the circle, such as for semicircular areas that jut out or extend beyond the main living area. In this case, you'll multiply the width, which is also the radius, by two. This will give you the diameter. After entering the diameter into the calculator above, you will need to divide the square footage result in half by two. That's because the calculator finds the total area of a circular room. For a semicircular room, you'll divide it in half to get the total area.
Measuring the Square Footage of a Two-Storey Home
When measuring a home with more than one floor, you can\u2019t simply measure the first floor and then multiply by the number of floors in the home. That\u2019s because the other floors might have less space than the first. For homes with more than one floor, you will need to include the stairs in the square footage calculation. If your attic is finished, then the liveable space in a finished attic will also be included in the home\u2019s square footage. However, not all areas of the country consider basements to be included in square footage, even if the basement is finished.
What to Include When Measuring the Square Footage of a House
The exact rooms and spaces that can be counted towards square footage of livable space will vary depending on your local market. Generally, these spaces are included when measuring the square footage of a house:
Kitchen
Living rooms
Bedrooms
Bathrooms
Closets
Hallways
Stairs
The following spaces may or may not be included in a home\u2019s listed square footage depending on your area and whether the space is finished:
Attic
Basement
Four season patios and enclosed sunrooms
These spaces are not included when measuring the square footage of a house:
Garage
Balcony, terrace, or patio
Front porch
Backyard
Sheds
How Much Flooring do I Need?
Knowing the square footage of the space is needed when you want to buy and install new flooring in your home. As a general rule of thumb, you will want to buy 10% to 15% more flooring than the square feet needed in order to account for wasted cuts or for any mistakes when installing. For example, if you are purchasing flooring for an entire 1,500 square foot home, you\u2019ll want to purchase 1,650 square feet of flooring. This acts as a buffer and will help your project go smoothly.

Price per Square Feet for Materials 2021
Knowing the square footage of a room or a house is just the first step for many homeowners and home buyers, but it remains important for many things related to your home. You\u2019ll need to know your home\u2019s square footage if you\u2019re looking to list your home for sale. You\u2019ll also need to know the square footage of rooms that you want to replace flooring for or spaces that you want to paint. You might even need to know the square footage outside of your home if you\u2019re looking to install pavers or to build a deck.
For homeowners looking to renovate, calculating the square foot of an area is important, and so you\u2019ll want to make sure that it is accurate. Once you know the square footage of the project, it\u2019s time to learn more about the cost of the materials that you might be dealing with.
Concrete Price per Square Foot
According to Forbes, the average cost of concrete is $6 per square foot. If the area of a garage is 576 square feet, at $6 per square foot, a 24x24 concrete garage slab would cost about $3,456 for materials alone. You can estimate the cost of concrete for your square footage by using a concrete calculator.

If you've ever tried to lay out flooring, arrange furniture or had an argument about who gets the bigger bedroom, you already understand the importance of knowing the size of a room. In the U.S., most flooring, furniture and other materials are measured in feet, so it makes sense to calculate the size of a room in square feet. However, if you're looking at furniture or flooring materials \u2013 or a potential roommate from anywhere else in the world \u2013 you need to calculate the size of the room in square meters instead.
TL;DR (Too Long; Didn't Read)
To calculate a rectangular room's area in square meters, multiply its length in meters by its width in meters. If the room is an odd shape, break the shape down into individual rectangles, calculate the area in square meters for each rectangle, and then add the areas of all the rectangles for the room's total area in square meters.
Measure Length and Width
To calculate the area of a room, you need to know its length and width. Since you want the result in square meters, both measurements should be taken in meters. Most measuring tapes have metric measurements along one side, so just make sure you read the right side of the tape and always write down the measurements to cut down on mistakes and to keep from having to remeasure if you forget.
Converting Meters to Feet
If you've already measured the room in feet, you don't have to remeasure. Instead, grab a calculator and make the conversion to meters by dividing the number of feet in each measurement by 3.2808. If your room measures 13 feet long on one side, after the conversion, you have
13 \u00f7 3.2808 = 3.96 \\text{ meters}
Calculating the Area of a Room
Now that you know the room's length and width in meters, you calculate its area using the formula
When you multiply one measurement in meters by another measurement in meters, the result should always be labeled as square meters to avoid confusion. You can also write square meters as meters2 or m2, which is read as meters squared.
Measuring Odd-Shaped Rooms
The formula works if your room is a square or rectangle shape, but sometimes rooms are L-shaped, or maybe you want to measure the free floor space around the furniture that's already in the room. In that case, the easiest method is to break the room's shape into individual rectangles. Calculate the area of each rectangle in square meters and then add the areas to get the total area of the room in square meters. If you have an L-shaped room that you broke down into two rectangles \u2013 one measuring 2 meters by 5 meters and the other measuring 5 meters by 4 meters \u2013 the area of the first rectangle is

How to calculate square footage?
\n
Square footage is the measurement of an area. Area portrays the measurement of a two-dimensional space bordered by a set of lines. Square footage is most commonly calculated for the floorings of houses.
\n
To calculate square footage, it is important to recognize the shape of the plane for example, if it\u2019s a square, rectangle, or any other shape. The formula for square footage area used will be in accordance with the shape.
\n
For example, to calculate square footage of a room in square (2) or rectangle shape. Simply multiply the length and width of the area.
\n
To calculate square footage of an oddly shaped area, for example an L shaped area. Start by splitting the area into two separate sections making square or rectangle of both sections. Now, measure the area of both sections and add them together to get the total square footage.
\n
Following are a few examples of how square footage calculators calculate the area for different shapes:
\n
\n
1. Square \nArea (ft2) = Side Length x Side Length
\n
2. Rectangle \nArea (ft2) = Length x Width
\n
3. Triangle \nArea (ft2) = \u00bd \u00d7 Base \u00d7 Height \nOR \nArea (ft2) = \u00bc x \u221a [ (a+b+c) x (b+c-a) x (c+a-b) x (a+b-c) ] \nWhere a, b and c are sides of a triangle.
\n
4. Circle \nArea (ft2) = \u03c0 x (diameter/2)2 \nWhere \u03c0 = 3.14159265
\n
\n
Before calculating square footage make sure the measurements you have taken are in square feet (ft2). If your measurements are in another unit let\u2019s say inches or meters, you will need to convert those measurements in feet by utilizing the method below.
\n
Also checkout our conversion table below for more unit conversions.
\n
If you have measured the length or width other than feet. Do the following to convert them into feet.
\n
\n
\u2013 For inches (in to feet): divide the value by 12. Output will be in feet.
\n
\u2013 For yards (yds to feet): multiply the value by 3. Output will be in feet.
\n
\u2013 For meters (m to feet): multiply the value by 3.281. Output will be in feet.
\n
\u2013 For centimeters (cm to feet): multiply the value by 0.03281. Output will be in feet.
\n
\u2013 For millimeters (mm to feet): multiply the value by 0.00328084. Output will be in feet.

\n
Whenever you plan to buy new flooring, the first thing is to calculate the Square Footage of the room. It\u2019s quite easy to calculate Square Footage, first, you need to measure the square footage of all areas of the room, this includes nooks and crannies and then you need to add all measurements together.
\n
This planning takes time and lots of measurements so make sure to double-check your measurements before ordering your flooring.
\n
For the safe side, add 5-10% of the waste factor, it is to prevent errors, damages, and extra cuts. To calculate this you need to add a waste factor in square footage like you have 100sqft and you are assuming 5% as a waste factor then 100 \u00d7 0.05 = 5 means total sqft will be 100 + 5 = 105sqft.

How to Measure for Wallpapering?
\n
\n
\n
First, measure the width (feet) of the wall you plan to add wallpaper. Round the measurement up to the nearest foot. For example, if 14 feet, 9 inches wide, it will be around 15 feet. Then, measure the height (feet) of the wall you plan to add wallpaper. Round the measurement up to the nearest foot. Multiply the rounded width and the height of the wall. This will be your total square footage of the wall. Now measure the width and height of large areas that will not be going to be covered with wallpaper, such as double doors, and round these heights and width. Multiply the width and height of all these areas and sum them up together to get the total square footage of any large area. Subtract the square footage of any large areas from the total square footage of the wall. The result is the total square footage of wallpaper needed to cover the wall.
