๐ข๐ CUSTOMER TIPS: HOW TO MEASURE YOUR ROOM FOR NEW FLOORING! ๐๐ค๐
๐๐ค GOLDEN RULE: MEASURE TWICE, ORDER ONCE! ๐
Thinking about getting new flooring but not sure how much you need? ๐ค
Getting your measurements right can save you money, time and a whole lot of hassle! ๐
๐ Measure the length
๐ Measure the width
๐ช Donโt forget doorways, alcoves & awkward areas
๐งฎ Work out your total square metres
โ Allow a little extra for cuts & wastage
And donโt worry if your room isnโt a perfect rectangle โ thatโs where a simple sketch can make all the difference! โ๏ธ
๐ Not sure what measurements you need?
Send Findlay Flooring a few measurements, some photos or even a quick sketch and weโll be happy to point you in the right direction.
๐ Whether itโs carpet, vinyl, LVT or laminate, getting the quantities right from the start makes everything a lot easier.
โ ๏ธ PLEASE MEASURE IN METRIC, NOT IMPERIAL! ๐
We need your measurements in metres (m) and square metres (mยฒ) โ not feet and inches!
No converting 12 foot 6 into 3.81 metres in your head, please. Save yourself the headache and get that tape measure speaking metric! ๐คฃ
