Laminate flooring formula

Room area = length × width. Required laminate = room area plus waste. Packs = required area ÷ pack coverage, rounded up.

Planning notes

This page is specifically for laminate flooring. Use the pack coverage printed by the manufacturer and increase waste for diagonal layouts, many cuts or complex room shapes.

  • Use the coverage printed on your laminate pack.
  • Simple straight layouts often use about 10% waste; complex patterns may need more.
