- The floor area is 208 sq ft; adding 10% for waste brings it to 228.8 sq ft.
- Dividing by the per-box coverage and rounding up gives 10 boxes, which actually covers 240 sq ft.
- Buy boxes from the same batch (dye lot) so colour and pattern match across the whole floor.
Next stepKeep one unopened box spare for future repairs, flooring lines are often discontinued.
