Imagine this: the flooring is almost installed, but you suddenly run out of material. Or the opposite—you're left with extra unopened boxes. A miscalculation costs time, stress, and money.
Our calculator was created to prevent that. Get a reliable purchasing estimate in just 30 seconds.
How does it work? It's simpler than you think.
Calculating for complex room shapes or non-standard layouts can be confusing. Our tool handles all the math for you.
- Enter the room dimensions—length and width.
- Choose from 9 laying patterns, from "straight plank" to "chevron".
- Specify the dimensions of your boards.
- Get your results: the number of boards, total area with waste, and skirting footage. For greater accuracy, you can subtract door openings from the skirting calculation.
What does the calculator account for?
- Smart, Not Average Waste: For "straight plank", "herringbone", or "chevron" patterns, we apply specific calculation logic, not a single, generic coefficient. This provides a result that is much closer to real-world usage.
- Adhesive Consumption: The calculator automatically estimates the required amount of adhesive (e.g., MS-polymer) at a rate of ~1.5 kg per m².
- Skirting with Door Adjustments: The linear meterage is calculated. The width of door openings can be subtracted.
- Complex Geometry: Check the corresponding box if the room has niches, protrusions, or convectors—additional waste will be factored in.
- Estimated Cost: Enter the price per m² and per linear meter of skirting to see an immediate budget overview.
Important: The results are estimates for planning purposes. For final measurements and complete confidence, we recommend consulting with a professional.
