Construction
Flooring Box Calculator
Work out how many boxes of laminate, tile, or vinyl plank to buy. Enter room length and width, choose your install pattern to set the waste factor, add the coverage per box, and include extra boxes for attic stock so you never run short or mismatch a dye lot.
Construction
Tile Quantity Calculator
Estimate how many tiles you need for a floor or wall, including a built-in 10% allowance for cuts and breakage. Multiply the floor area by the inverse tile area, round up, then add 10%.
