Frequently Asked Questions
Should I include closets in my flooring square footage?
Yes. Include closets, small hallways, pantry areas, and any connected spaces receiving the same flooring.
Do I round room measurements up or down?
For planning material, round up to the nearest practical measurement. A small measurement error can create a shortage.
Is square footage the same as boxes of flooring?
No. Square footage is the area needed. Box count depends on the product coverage per carton and the waste percentage.
