About RenoGauge

RenoGauge is a free, growing set of home renovation and home improvement cost calculators. Each tool answers one practical question a homeowner asks before a project: how much paint a room needs, what new flooring will cost, how much concrete to order for a slab.

What we believe

Most renovation calculators are slow, cluttered, or hide the simple math behind a wall of ads and signup prompts. RenoGauge does the opposite. Every tool is one page, loads fast, and shows the formula and a worked example so you can see exactly how the number was reached and check it yourself.

How the estimates work

All math runs in your browser. Nothing you type is sent to a server or stored. Each tool preloads a current US average for material and labor prices and lets you replace it with your own local quote. Figures are for planning and budgeting, not a contractor quote.

How it stays free

RenoGauge is supported by display advertising on the tool pages. The tools themselves are free, with no account and no paywall. See our privacy policy for how advertising and analytics are handled, and our disclaimer for the limits of these estimates.
