How many m3 do you get approximately from a 25kg bag of self-leveling compound?
I'm trying to figure out how many bags of smoothing compound I might need but having a hard time finding information on how many m3 one bag provides.
I will need approximately 0.31m3 of smoothing compound as the room is 15.5m2 and an average of 20mm elevation of the floor is needed.
Does anyone know roughly how many bags that might be, who has a bit better insight?

You should check the specific self-leveling compound you're going to use, they usually specify something like 1.7kg per/m2 and mm..Grillen said:

I will need approximately 0.31m3 of self-leveling compound since the room is 15.5m2 and the average required height increase of the floor is 20mm.

Once you've chosen a brand, it should be stated on the bag. But maybe 10-15 liters per bag.Grillen said:

Does anyone have an idea of how many bags it might take from those who know a bit better?
Why not read the specification on the packaging. It definitely states how to calculate this.Grillen said:

Get 40 bags, expect to mix at least 30.Grillen said:

Does anyone know roughly how many bags it might be for someone with a bit more insight?
