The amount he will need is given by the whole area less the area of the windows and doors....

 

The whole area  = the area of the long rectangle at the bottom plus the area of the rectangle at the top left  =  (18 * 60)  + (29 * 17) = 1573 sq ft.

 

The area of the windows and doors =  2( 5 *3) + (2 * 15)  + (8 *4)  = 92 sq ft

 

So....the amount will be    =     [1573 - 92] sq ft =  1481 sq ft
