Martin and anyone else getting their floor done: I own a flooring company in Colorado. Here's a suggestion. Measure your floor first. Chances are you will NOT get to correct SF for installation, there are cuts and waste. Straight laid floor will be 5 - 7 percent. Patterned will be 10 - 15 percent for waste and cuts. By measuring your own floor and getting a couple of estimates you should at least have a good SF estimate. Verify your measured floor vs. what you paid for. Product ALWAYS has SF or SY on the labels. Rare though it does happen, they can be wrong. But these labels, cuts, & measurements are computer driven to the hundreth's or thousandth's. Protect yourself and use some common sense people.
