How it’s calculated

  • Waste covers cuts, offcuts and mistakes: about 10% for planks and carpet, 15% for tile and 20% for tile laid on a diagonal.
  • Boxes are the area with waste divided by what one box covers, rounded up to whole boxes.
  • The cost is the area of those whole boxes times the price per square foot or metre.
