How ft² to m² works
Convert square feet to square metres instantly. 1 ft² = 0.09290304 m², with a live result and a quick reference table. Everything happens inside this page: the tool reads your input, runs the calculation or conversion locally, and hands the result back to you. Nothing is transmitted, because there is no backend to transmit it to.
That design choice is deliberate. Most free tool sites upload your files to a server, process them there, and quietly keep a copy. Toolcin cannot do that — the site is a set of static files. If your connection dropped the moment the page finished loading, every tool would still work.
Area units square the factor
One foot is 0.3048 metres, so one square foot is 0.3048² = 0.09290304 square metres. That is the factor used here, and it is exact because the foot is defined exactly.
The common mistake is converting area with the length factor. Multiplying square feet by 0.3048 instead of 0.0929 gives a result more than three times too large — on a 1,000 ft² flat that is the difference between 93 m² and 305 m².
Property sizes at a glance
Listings switch between the two units constantly, and the round numbers in one system are awkward in the other.
| Square feet | Square metres |
|---|---|
| 500 ft² | 46.45 m² |
| 1,000 ft² | 92.90 m² |
| 1,500 ft² | 139.35 m² |
| 2,000 ft² | 185.81 m² |
| 10,764 ft² | 1,000 m² |
What floor area excludes
Carpet area, built-up area and super built-up area are different measurements, and the same flat can be quoted three ways. The unit conversion is exact; the number you convert may already be inflated by a builder's definition.
When comparing two listings, check which definition each uses before converting. A 1,200 ft² super built-up flat is often smaller than a 1,000 ft² carpet-area one.

Questions
How many m² are in one ft²?
Exactly 0.09290304 m². The conversion multiplies by 0.09290304.
Can I convert the other way?
Yes — the reverse page m²-to-ft² covers it, or divide by 0.09290304 here.
Why not multiply by 0.3048?
That converts length, not area. The area factor is the square of the length factor.
Does it handle square yards?
Not on this page. Square yards are 9 square feet, so convert to square feet first.
