The product is exclusive to this particular chain or flooring stores so cant source it elsewhere. We are in a regional area so I called a metro store and they told me they also have high freight costs on small orders so would be no use trying that avenue either. Just waiting to hear back from the store and hoping they will compromise on the price or I will be calling Fair Trading. Re: Mismeasured flooring quote 4Jun 25, 2018 12:14 pm The problem you face could be a tricky one. When the flooring was originally laid, if the people laying the floor weren't told that so many boxes of planks was for another area, they could have been a flippant with wastage and a lot of cut ones could have been thrown away. I know that when our tiles were laid, we thought that there would be a lot left over, but I think I counted 5. A whole box was thrown in the bin as it much have been dropped and then there are nearly whole ones in the bin as wastage.f Re: Mismeasured flooring quote 5Jun 29, 2018 9:33 pm The installer definitely knew there was meant to be enough left for the kitchen. Anyway we have had a win... after a few phone calls with staff who were full of their well used excuses I went in to see the manager. Face to face, I told him it was simple, we had an agreed install and supply and price and they had not met their end of the agreement. He agreed with me and we are getting the additional planks free of charge. Glad we got the right outcome but makes me so mad that they try and pull this s#%t on people. Will not be doing business with them again. Re: Mismeasured flooring quote 6Jun 29, 2018 9:34 pm The installer definitely knew there was meant to be enough left for the kitchen.
