Flooring Cost Calculator
Estimate net/buy area, piece count, boxes, and material / install / underlay costs from room size, layout waste and plank specs.
How to use
- Enter room length & width; deduct non-floor areas if any
- Pick a layout (straight / diagonal / herringbone / parquet) or set waste %
- Enter plank size, pcs per box, and optional unit prices
Formulas
- Net area = L × W − deduct
- Buy area = net × (1 + waste%)
- Pieces = ceil(buy area ÷ plank area); boxes = ceil(pieces ÷ pcs/box)
Typical waste: straight 3–5%, diagonal ~8%, herringbone ~10%. Buy from the same dye lot; calculations run locally in your browser.
