Free Tools Online For Do It Yourselfers to Help You Out

[Ray Brockette]

Hey All You Do It Yourselfers!

I know that there are quite a few of you out there that do all or most of the rehab on your properties yourselves.

Well I stumbled across two sites that I thought were pretty informative the first one 

Concrete Calculator is pretty cool just enter the width and length and how thick and it will tell how many yards or premix you will need.

But this one, Drywall Calculator is just the absolute best it is powered by Georgia-Pacific and what makes it so great are a few things. 

first of all you enter the room dimensions (and round up to the next foot) and you can include the ceiling if you want and not only will it calculate:

How many sheets of drywall you will need. 

It will also tell you 

How many rolls of drywall tape it will take to do the job.

How many pounds of drywall screws or nails and their size.

How many pails of Joint Compound you will need to finish the project.

and all the tools you will need as well.

Bonus- there is a free downloadable PDF as well with all kinds formula tables as to help make things easier. 

Enjoy
