FloorsCalcChoose the right planning tool
All flooring calculators
Start with the material you plan to install. Each calculator uses the same room-area foundation, then adds the purchase details that matter for that flooring type.
General Flooring Calculator
Find combined room area, allowance, and whole packages.
Open calculator →CalculatorTile Calculator
Estimate whole tiles and boxes for rectangular surfaces.
Open calculator →CalculatorVinyl Plank Calculator
Plan vinyl plank quantities using product dimensions or box coverage.
Open calculator →CalculatorLaminate Flooring Calculator
Estimate laminate planks, required area, and cartons.
Open calculator →CalculatorHardwood Flooring Calculator
Plan hardwood area and whole cartons using actual product coverage.
Open calculator →CalculatorCarpet Calculator
Create a preliminary roll-width planning estimate.
Open calculator →Which calculator should I use?
General Flooring Calculator
Use it to combine one or more room areas, adjust the extra-material allowance, and optionally convert the result to whole packages using exact box coverage.
Tile Calculator
Use it when tile length and width matter and you want a whole-tile estimate plus optional box quantities for a floor, wall, or backsplash.
Vinyl Plank Calculator
Use it for vinyl plank piece and box estimates based on the selected plank dimensions and manufacturer-stated package coverage.
Laminate Flooring Calculator
Use it for laminate plank and carton planning, including the whole-package rounding needed for a locking-floor product.
Hardwood Flooring Calculator
Use it to turn measured area into whole hardwood cartons or bundles using the selected product’s coverage, including random-length products.
Carpet Calculator
Use it for a preliminary roll-width estimate. Unlike boxed flooring, carpet must be planned as full-width runs with seams and direction in mind.
What to measure before calculating
Sketch the project and record the length and width of every room, closet, alcove, and connecting area that will receive flooring. Divide L-shaped or irregular spaces into non-overlapping rectangles. For a material-specific estimate, also collect the tile, plank, or board dimensions; the exact box or carton coverage; and carpet roll width where applicable.
Product dimensions or package coverage?
Enter product dimensions when you need an estimated number of individual tiles or planks. For a box or carton purchase, use the coverage printed on the exact product packaging or current manufacturer specification. Package coverage accounts for the product’s actual contents and should not be guessed from a similar item.
Choose extra material for the project
Cuts, breakage, room shape, board or tile direction, pattern matching, and manufacturer rules affect material use differently. That is why the allowance remains editable and why one percentage is not correct for every project. Carpet is different again: room square footage alone cannot determine full-width runs, seams, pile direction, or pattern alignment.
Calculator results are planning estimates. Check measurements, packaging coverage, installation instructions, and final purchase quantities for the exact product before ordering.
