How to Use the Baseboard Calculator

Ready to find out how much baseboard you need? It’s simple! Just follow these steps and get an accurate estimate in no time:

1. Choose Your Unit of Measurement

Decide whether you want to use feet/inches (Imperial) or meters/centimeters (Metric). This will affect how the calculator displays your room measurements and the final result.

2. Select Your Room Type

• Rectangular Room: If your room is a simple rectangle, just enter the length and width.
• Irregular Room: For rooms with odd shapes, input the total perimeter (the length of all walls).

3. Enter Room Dimensions

• For rectangular rooms, enter the room's length and width.
• For irregular rooms, enter the total perimeter around the room.

4. Account for Doors, Windows, and Other Features

If there are areas (like doors or windows) that won't need baseboards, simply enter their width and how many of them there are. The calculator will subtract these areas from your total baseboard requirement, ensuring you don’t overestimate.

5. Select Your Baseboard Material

Choose the material you plan to use (wood, MDF, aluminum, etc.). This affects the quantity of material needed, as different materials have different dimensions and pricing.

6. Hit “Calculate”

Once you’ve entered all your data, hit Calculate and let the tool do the work! You’ll get:

• The total length of baseboard you need
• The material quantity (with waste factored in)
• An estimated cost for your baseboard purchase
