Browse Forums Flooring & Floor Covering 1 May 04, 2016 2:47 pm I am currently in the initial stages of a KDR. I have come across a very good deal on vinyl planks which I am planning on purchasing in preparation for the build. The build I am looking at is a 2 storey ~320m2 floor area, with all areas to use the vinyl planks except for the laundry and three bathrooms. How much wastage can be expected in installing the vinyl planks? For example, should I expect 20% wastage, or is it more 40% or even higher? Any ideas on this would be appreciated.

Thanks I just did my single storey and ordered 10% extra. I still have two unopened boxes. There was not a huge amount of wastage if you are careful when laying. I used Gerflor Creation Click vinyl floor planks. I think 10% is about the right amount of extra from my reading. It worked out well for me.
