Wood or vinyl planks and floor tiles, and how many boxes to buy.
- Step 1 · How big is the room?
- Step 2 · Add a photo (optional)
- Step 3 · Choose your floor
- Step 4 · See it in your room
- Step 5 · What you’ll need
See new wood planks or floor tiles in your room, and find out how many boxes to buy, with spare for cuts.
Step 1 · How big is the room?
- The room from above, to scale. Drag the orange dot to resize it.
- Add a Sofa, Bed or Table to check the layout. Fitted pieces under More, like kitchen cabinets or a wardrobe, are left out of the floor area.
Step 2 · Add a photo (optional)
Take one photo of the room showing the floor, then drag the four orange dots onto the points where the floor meets the walls. Or use the sample room.
Step 3 · Choose your floor
- Wood or vinyl planks, or Tiles.
- Color, then size.
- One box covers: the area printed on the box. Change it to match yours; this number decides how many boxes you buy.
- Add underlayment: the foam layer under the floor. Not needed if the planks have a pad attached.
Step 4 · See it in your room
- Drag across the photo.
Step 5 · What you’ll need
The area is the room's floor plus 10% spare for cuts and mistakes, divided by the box coverage and rounded up. Tap the floor line to change the spare to 5% (simple rooms, straight lay) or 15% (lots of corners, or a diagonal pattern).
