Questions
Flooring Calculator FAQ
How much flooring waste is typical?
Simple rectangular layouts often plan 5 to 10 percent, while diagonal layouts and many cuts may need 10 to 15 percent or more.
Why are boxes rounded up?
Flooring is sold in complete boxes, so a fractional box must be purchased as the next whole box.
