How the calculation works

Required area = floor area × (1 + waste/100). Packs = required area/coverage per pack, rounded up.

Inputs

  • Floor area, m²
  • Coverage per pack, m²
  • Waste, %
  • Price per pack

Calculation details

For a 20 m² room, 10% waste, and 2.2 m² per pack, you need 10 packs. Cost is calculated for whole packs.

Use the total floor area and actual pack coverage from its label. Waste depends on laying direction, room shape, and whether offcuts can be reused.
