Calculators in this workflow

Estimate flooring, tile, underlayment, grout, waste, boxes, and purchase coverage without hiding allowances.

Recommended workflow

Measure once, estimate in project order

  1. Measure each room or section and subtract only areas that will not receive material.
  2. Choose an explicit layout allowance based on cuts, pattern, direction, breakage, and spare material.
  3. Use coverage printed on the exact box, roll, bag, or product data sheet.

Planning method

Turn measurements into purchase decisions

Required installed coverage and rounded purchase coverage are different. Keep product lots, returns, and future repair stock in the buying decision.

  • Keep assumptions with the estimate.
  • Separate required material from rounded packages.
  • Recheck current product instructions and local requirements.

Measure before estimating
