Enter your room size and the pack coverage on the flooring box — we'll work out how many packs, underlay rolls and skirting length you need.
Wastage default 10 % (straight lay). Add 15 % for diagonal, 20 % for herringbone. Skirting = room perimeter, order 1–2 extra 2.4 m lengths.
Add 8–10 % for straight lay, 12–15 % for diagonal, 15–20 % for herringbone or rooms with many cut-outs. Keep at least one full pack for later repairs.
Yes for laminate (2–3 mm foam or fibreboard) and for click-vinyl over uneven subfloors. Do not double up if the plank already has an attached IXPE pad — it voids the warranty.
8–10 mm for laminate and engineered wood on runs up to 8 m, 12–15 mm above that. Skirting or scotia hides it. Skip the gap and the floor buckles on the first humid week.
Run planks parallel to the longest wall or perpendicular to the main light source — both make the room look larger and hide seams.
Estimates only. Check the paint tin / adhesive bag for the exact coverage of your product.
