Estimated Total (incl. VAT) (R)

Total Calculated Recommended Retail Price

Prices include VAT and exclude installation & finishing trims. Floor preparation is an estimate based on a 2–3 mm screed. Screed thickness, primer type and whether a moisture barrier is needed depend on your subfloor and must be confirmed by a FINfloor-approved professional. We recommend ticking “approved retailer to contact you” below.

Prices exclude installation, underlay, finishing trims, floor preparation, and delivery to outlying areas.

EXPLAINER

Why These Inputs Matter

Engineered hardwood flooring is sold in full boxes. Inputs like wastage and underlay ensure accurate purchasing without stalling installation or incurring double delivery fees.

Why Wastage % Changes the Price
Trimming planks along room borders produces offcuts. Adding 5%–15% wastage ensures full row completion.
Why Underlay Affects the Total
Underlay protects against subfloor moisture and noise transmission, giving an all-inclusive estimate.
Why m² is Standard
Box dimensions vary per design. Square meters standardizes accurate price comparison.
