How do I determine the amount of flooring I need for my space?

Determining the right amount of flooring for your space is a crucial step in any home improvement project. At Flooring King, we've got you covered with a simple guide to help you calculate the exact amount you need: Measure Your Space: Begin by measuring the length and width of the room. For irregularly shaped rooms, divide them into smaller, more manageable sections. Add Extra for Wastage: It's wise to account for wastage during installation. Depending on the complexity of your layout, add an extra 5-10% to your total square footage to accommodate cuts and unforeseen adjustments. Consider Pattern Matching: If your chosen flooring has a pattern or needs to be matched, consult with our experts at Flooring King to determine the extra amount required for a seamless look. Factor in Room Shape: Different room shapes may result in varying amounts of wastage. Take into consideration any alcoves, closets, or irregular corners that may affect your calculations. Consult with Flooring Experts: Our team at Flooring King is always ready to assist you. Feel free to reach out for personalised advice on your specific project, ensuring you get the right amount of flooring for your unique space.

Vanguard Emperor Shadow is a dark grey twist pile carpet built to take real life. The colour sits deep and neutral, suiting any scheme from traditional to contemporary. Bleach cleanable means you can tackle mess head on without fear, and the stain-resistant finish buys you time to blot and treat spills before they set in.

Soft underfoot, the 10mm pile gives comfort without sacrificing durability. The twist construction holds its shape through daily wear, and the polypropylene material won’t easily crush or flatten. At 2060g/m2 pile weight and 12mm total thickness, it’s built for homes that don’t tiptoe.
