How much flooring do I need?

Calculate the room's area (width × length), add 10% for straight-lay or 15% for diagonal/herringbone patterns, then divide by the coverage printed on the flooring box. Always round up to full boxes and keep a spare for future repairs.

Frequently asked questions

How much extra flooring should I buy?

Add 10% for standard layouts and 15–20% for diagonal or herringbone patterns. Keep at least one plank spare for future repairs.
