FAQ
How do I measure an L-shaped room?+
Split the L into two rectangles, measure each separately, and add them as two rows. The calculator totals everything for you.
Should I subtract closets and cabinets?+
Closets — yes, if they're not getting flooring. Cabinets and islands — typically yes, but only if they sit on the subfloor (not on top of new flooring). When in doubt, measure room-to-wall and subtract the cabinet footprint as a separate negative row.
Does this account for waste?+
No — this is raw square footage. Apply your waste factor (10-20%) when you order material or use our waste factor calculator.
