What this calculator does not include

Supply + install per m² covers the bulk of a flooring quote but rarely all of it. Common line items to quote separately: underlay, sheet-vinyl coving, floor prep (self-levelling, ply, screed), skirting supply and install, old floor covering removal and disposal, and door adjustment for the new floor height.
