Frequently asked questions

How are flooring boxes calculated?

Divide total square footage including waste by sq ft per box, then round up to the next whole number.

What if my last box is only partly used?

That is normal. The leftover is your waste allowance plus partial-box remainder. Keep extra planks for future repairs.

Can I enter price per box?

Yes. Optional price per box gives an estimated total and shows roughly how much of your spend goes to waste material.
