How To Measure A Room To Order Sheet Vinyl Flooring Materials
Use 12 feet for WIDTH
126"
10 feet, 6 inches
The installer
will handle
cutouts like
this portion.
When measuring, ignore
odd shaped areas like this.
Just take the WIDEST and
the LONGEST measurements
of the room, as indicated.
Plan well and you can usually avoid seams.
Keep in mind that sheet vinyl is sold in standard
12 foot wide rolls and accommodates usual lengths.
If wider than 12 feet each way, a seam is required.
Remember to always
round up to the next
full square yard.
If a seam is required,
matching the pattern
can be tricky, and will
require extra material.
Sheet vinyl is sold by the square yard.
Width x Length = Square Feet
Divide Square Feet by 9 = Square Yards
In this case, 12 (standard roll width) x 14.75 = 177 Square Feet
177 ÷ 9 = 19.67 rounded up to 20 Square Yards
Use 14.75 feet for LENGTH
No seam is needed because the standard roll is
12 feet wide by whatever length you need
14 feet, 6 inches PLUS add 3 inches to cover areas such as through a doorway = 14.75 feet
174"
