Add a second room and closets for a single order, whichever material you are laying.
How it works
Each room area plus closets, raised by your extra percentage, then divided by carton coverage.
Before you order
- Buy all cartons from the same lot so color runs true.
- Run boards toward the main light source or the longest view.
- Keep a spare carton for repairs.
Common questions
How much extra flooring should I buy?
About 10% for straight layouts, and 15% or more for diagonal or rooms with many cuts.
Do I include closets?
Yes, and the floor usually continues through them, so add them here.
