Planning estimate only. Check product specifications, site conditions and local codes before ordering or building.

Flooring quantity formula

Room area = length × width. Required area = room area × (1 + waste percentage). Packs = required area ÷ pack coverage, rounded up.

Planning notes

Use the exact coverage printed on the flooring pack. Irregular rooms can be split into rectangles and added together; patterned installations often need more waste.

  • Check the exact pack coverage printed by the manufacturer.
  • Patterned layouts may need a larger waste allowance.
