How it works
The calculator applies the waste percentage to the floor area, divides by the coverage per pack and rounds up to whole packs.
packs = ceil(area × (1 + waste %) ÷ pack coverage)Worked example
For a 180 ft² room, 10% waste and packs covering 20 ft² each, 10 packs are required.
Assumptions
- The pack coverage you enter is the manufacturer's stated coverage.
Limitations
- Layouts, plank dimensions, pattern direction and damaged material can change actual waste.
