Measuring Guide

This guide will help you determine the amount of flooring you need to complete your project and how to measure your space.

Please note: We don’t offer a fitting service, but as more and more people now order their flooring online, it is quite easy to find a local fitter in your area. If you are reasonably competent at DIY, then you may consider fitting yourself, using the numerous online guides for reference.

•  It is important to measure the room end to end including any space into the doorway. For example where the door way area has the room flooring connect with the other room flooring, you should measure right into the connecting point. We recommend measuring a bit over the area.

•  Measure the length and width of your room at the longest and widest points, as mentioned remember to measure into doorways, into cupboard spaces, alcoves etc.

•  Add 10cm on to the length and width, allowing for waste, seams and additional material that may be needed to complete fitting.

• Calculate the price of your vinyl by selecting the correct width options on our price calculator.

 

The diagram below shows an example room which is 5m and 3.6m at its longest and widest points.

A. Always allow for waste by adding 10cm on to the width and length measurements, this would make the total measurements 5.10m x 3.10m.

B. Most of our vinyl flooring is available in 2,3 and 4m widths, you would need to order 5.10m in length and 4m in width.

C. Simply input "5.10" into the length field and select "4m" from the drop down menu then click 'Add to Basket'.

•  Double check every measurement for complete accuracy.

•  Please note: any patterns, stripes or wood effects run along the length of the roll
