How the calculation works

  • Floor area is the sum of your rooms (length × width), converted to m² and sq ft.
  • We add a wastage allowance for cutting: 7% for straight planks, 12% diagonal, 18% herringbone (range 15–20%), 15% chevron, plus 2% for rooms under 60 sq ft.
  • Boxes are rounded up to whole boxes; herringbone A and B planks are ordered in equal numbers.
  • Skirting is your room perimeter minus 0.9 m per doorway, plus 5% for cuts, in 2.4 m lengths.
  • Where a product has a published price, we show the material cost range excluding and including GST. Installation is quoted separately.

This is an estimate. We confirm quantities after a site measurement.
