We know
that working out how much flooring you need can be a
pain so below is a quick guide to working out exactly
how much flooring you require.
We suggest
you allow an additional 5% for wastage
(when you use the calculator this is automatically added
for you).
STANDARD ROOM
1.
Find the two widest areas (a,b)
2. Multiply the two sizes
3. 4.35 x 5.25 = 22.83m2
4. Total metres required 22.83
L
Shaped Room
1.
Divide room into two rectangular sections
2. Take the four sizes and multiply as below
3. 2.33 x 5.25 = 12.23m2 and 1.75 x 4.25 =
7.43m2
4. Add the two sizes together
5. 12.23 + 7.43 = 19.76m2
6. Total metres required 19.76
3 Way Room/Hallway
1. Divide room into three rectangular sections
2. Take all sizes and multiply them
as below...
3. 1.10 x 1.75 = 1.925m2
1.10 x 1.75 = 1.925m2
5.00 x 1.00 = 5.00m2
4. Add the three sizes together
5. 1.925 + 1.925 + 5.00 = 8.85
6. Total metres required 8.85m2
