The figures above assume 2 finish coats at the calculator’s default coverage (120 sq ft per litre for interior walls and ceilings, 100 sq ft per litre for exterior walls) and one primer coat. Enamel for wood and metal, putty, sealer and painter labour are additional, and your quote is confirmed on your own measurements.
How the quote is built
For each room use gross wall area = 2 × (length + width) × height, then deduct doors and windows (width × height × quantity). Add length × width for each ceiling, and measure the exposed front, side, rear and boundary walls separately for the exterior. Marla describes the plot, not the surface, so a 5 Marla plot can carry very different amounts of paint depending on the storey count and how much of the plot is built on.
How much paint for a 5 Marla houseA quotation that names only a finish paint is not a quotation. Interior walls and ceilings need an interior emulsion, exposed exterior walls need an exterior coating over an exterior primer, doors, windows, grills and gates need synthetic enamel over an undercoat, and any repaired or porous surface needs putty or filler first. Because Triangle Paints manufactures the whole range in one factory, we can quote the complete preparation-and-finish system rather than a single product.
What each product is forMultiply the paintable area by the number of finish coats, then divide by the product's coverage in square feet per litre per coat. That gives litres of finish paint. Primer is calculated separately from the wall area only, and putty from the wall area as well. Enamel is measured on the actual doors, windows and metalwork rather than estimated from the house size.
Open the paint calculatorPainter labour is quoted separately from paint material, normally per square foot of paintable area, and it moves with city, wall height, access, surface condition and scope. The calculator on this site starts from an editable Rs 20 per sq ft planning rate for comparison only. When you send your requirement through, our Rawalpindi team confirms the current material rate, the pack sizes in stock, the delivery charge and the applicable warranty terms for your project.
How we price a projectWhat moves the price
A paint quote is not a fixed price per room. It is a function of the area, the system, the preparation and the labour. These are the levers, and knowing which one is moving is what lets you compare two quotations fairly.
| Factor | What it changes |
|---|---|
| Paintable area | The single biggest driver. Every litre, every pack and every hour of labour scales with the area that actually gets painted. |
| Storey count | A double-storey house on the same plot has more interior wall and ceiling area and often more exterior wall, so it needs more paint — but not exactly double. |
| Interior, exterior or both | Exterior coatings cover less area per litre than interior emulsions, and exposed walls are usually specified with a primer as well. |
| Number of coats | Two finish coats is the usual specification. New plaster, a strong colour change or a badly damaged surface may need a primer plus two or three coats. |
| Surface condition | New or porous plaster, damp patches, cracks and uneven areas need putty, filler or a sealer before the primer, and preparation labour is charged separately. |
| Colour change | Going from a dark colour to a light one, or the other way round, needs more coats than repainting in the same colour. |
| Doors, windows and metalwork | Enamel for doors, windows, grills, railings and gates is measured separately and quoted on the actual items rather than on the house size. |
| Wall height and access | Higher walls, stairwells and hard-to-reach elevations take longer and are priced accordingly in the labour line. |
| City and delivery | Delivery is free across Rawalpindi and Islamabad. For other cities in Pakistan the charge depends on distance and order size. |
| Painter arranged or not | You can buy the materials only, or have the work carried out as well. Labour is quoted separately from material either way. |
Why the rate is lower
Triangle Paints makes its own paint in Rawat, Rawalpindi. That is why a Triangle Paints quotation comes in below a dealer price for the same system — not because the product is thinner and not because the standard of making is lower.
You are quoting one manufacturer rather than a dealer margin on top of a manufacturer. On a whole house that is the difference between a material total and a much larger one, and it is the single biggest reason our quotations come in lower.
Preparation, primer, finish coat and enamel all come from the same factory, so the specification holds together. You are not mixing a primer that will not take with a finish coat from somewhere else and hoping it works.
Delivery is free anywhere in Rawalpindi and Islamabad, which means a painter on site can get materials the same day. Nationwide delivery across Pakistan is arranged by distance and order size.
We are careful with the word guarantee. The applicable warranty terms for your product and system are confirmed with you in writing as part of the quotation, rather than promised on a web page. Ask us for them and we will send them.

Fill in the form above with your requirement and press Send on WhatsApp. The form opens WhatsApp with your details, project type, house size and notes already written out, so you only have to press send. You can also message us directly on WhatsApp, call the Rawalpindi team, or visit our authorized retail point in Rawalpindi. Our team replies with the suitable product system, the quantity, the current rate, pack sizes, delivery and the applicable warranty terms.
Five things: the city you need delivery in, whether the work is interior, exterior or both, the size of the job (house size in Marla, or the measured paintable area), the condition of the surfaces, and when you want the work done. If you are unsure about the quantity, run it through the paint calculator first and send the result — a rough estimate is more useful to us than no estimate at all.
On the calculator's planning assumptions, a single-storey 5 Marla house is about 2,800 sq ft of interior walls, 1,000 sq ft of ceilings and 900 sq ft of exterior walls, which is roughly 81 litres of finish paint at two coats and about 28 litres of primer, plus putty, enamel for doors and windows, and painter labour quoted separately per square foot. A double-storey house on the same plot needs considerably more. Send us your requirement and we will confirm the exact quantity and current rate.
Two figures are usually quoted separately. Material is worked out from the paintable area, the number of coats and the product's coverage in square feet per litre per coat. Labour is a separate charge per square foot of paintable area. For comparison only, the calculator starts from an editable Rs 20 per sq ft planning rate, because real rates vary with city, wall height, surface condition and scope. Enter your own rate to match the quotes you are seeing in Rawalpindi or Islamabad.
The single-storey 10 Marla planning example is about 5,600 sq ft of interior walls, 2,000 sq ft of ceilings and 1,800 sq ft of exterior walls — roughly 163 litres of finish paint at two coats and about 57 litres of primer, with putty, enamel and labour added on top. A double-storey 10 Marla house needs significantly more wall and ceiling area, so the figure is much higher. Send us your requirement and we will price the exact job.
A 1 Kanal plot is 20 Marla. The single-storey planning example is about 11,200 sq ft of interior walls, 4,000 sq ft of ceilings and 3,600 sq ft of exterior walls — roughly 325 litres of finish paint at two coats plus about 114 litres of primer, before putty, enamel and labour. A double-storey house on the same plot needs more again. Use the 1 Kanal row in the table above to load the figures, then send them to us.
It can be either way, and we quote it separately from material so you can see both. Tell us in your requirement whether you want the paint only, or the paint plus the painting work carried out. Triangle Paints manufactures the paint rather than employing a painting crew, but where a project needs application labour we can arrange experienced local painters and painting contractors in Rawalpindi, Islamabad and nearby areas, and we confirm the scope and price before any work starts.
A confirmed quotation lists the product system for each surface (putty or filler where needed, primer, finish coat and enamel), the quantity in litres or kilograms with the suggested pack sizes, the material total, the delivery charge for your city, the painter labour if you want the work carried out, and the applicable warranty terms. Anything not included is stated, so there are no surprises on the day the work starts.
Most enquiries are answered the same working day when we have the measurements. If the requirement is unusual — a very large commercial project, a lot of preparation, or a special cabinet or masonry job — we may need to look at the details before pricing, and we will tell you when we expect to come back with a figure rather than leaving you waiting.
Delivery is free anywhere in Rawalpindi (Pindi) and Islamabad. For other cities across Pakistan we arrange nationwide delivery, and the charge depends on distance and order size — we confirm it before you order. Delivery to site is also free within the twin cities, which is what makes same-day material delivery possible for a painter on a job.
Yes. Choose one room or a portion of the home in the calculator, or simply describe it in your requirement — a bedroom, a lounge, a staircase, a shop front or one floor. Single-room jobs are quoted the same way as whole-house jobs: area, system, quantity, delivery and, if you want it, labour.
Yes. Shops, offices, schools and warehouses need a tougher finish on high-traffic walls and enamel on steel, grills and shutters, so the specification differs from a home. Send us the number of units or sites, the surfaces and the quantities and we will quote the material at project-tier rates with bundling for primers and emulsions.
Yes, and the price difference comes from the formulation rather than from a diluted product. The Express Economy range is our most economical line, the Pro range sits in the middle, and Super Emulsion and Supreme Smooth Emulsion are the smoother finishes. All of them are made under the same controlled manufacturing standard in our Rawat factory. Tell us your budget and the surface, and we will recommend the right range rather than the cheapest tin.
The applicable warranty terms are confirmed with you in writing as part of the quotation, for the product and the system you are using, and they depend on the surface, the system and the conditions the paint is applied in. We will set them out clearly before you order rather than leaving you to find out later.
Triangle Paints is manufactured in Rawat, Rawalpindi and sold through our authorized retail point in Rawalpindi and our factory point on Japan Road, Rawat. Every product has its own verified shade card, so you can confirm the colour matches the range you specified. Buy from us directly, from the retail point, or from a dealer, and you will receive the same factory-made product.
