Laminate Flooring Installation Waste Calculation Regulations

In today's era, industrial laminate flooring is increasingly becoming the preference for many families and construction projects in Vietnam. Choosing laminate flooring not only brings high aesthetics but also offers reasonable prices and many outstanding advantages compared to other products such as ceramic tiles or red bricks. However, to ensure peace of mind and satisfaction for customers, selecting laminate flooring must be based on specific and clear factors. Therefore, Thien Ha – has issued regulations and methods for calculating laminate flooring waste as follows.

DESIGN FACTORS:

1. SEND DESIGN TO THIEN HA:

For customers who already have a design for their project, sending the design information or sample to Thien Ha is an important step. Our team of specialists will estimate the waste cost based on factors such as flooring installation location, corners, curves, angles, and other factors affecting the cost.

2. Standardize the Ratio:

After determining the area and special locations, Thien Ha and the customer will agree on the waste ratio. This will help us estimate the cost and inform the customer specifically about the waste ratio. If the waste area is less than 3%, the waste cost will not be charged to the customer.

LAMINATE FLOORING INSTALLATION PATTERNS:

Thien Ha offers a range of laminate flooring installation patterns, starting from the simplest traditional patterns to more complex ones.

1. Traditional Installation Using the ½ Pattern (Running Bond Style):

The 1/2 pattern involves dividing a flooring plank into two equal parts, creating a unique and attractive installation style. The installation process begins at the starting position, where the original full plank is installed first. Then, the process continues with the 1/2 plank, creating an impressive running bond effect.

Advantages:

• Unique and prominent style.
• Low installation cost, does not require high-level technical staff.
• Easy to coordinate colors with interior design.

2. Traditional Installation Using the 1/2/3 Pattern (Running Bond Style):

The traditional 1/2/3 pattern expands the idea of the 1/2 pattern by dividing the flooring plank into three equal parts. The installation process continues in a running bond style, creating a unique pattern with variation and creativity.

Advantages:

• Enhanced uniqueness and creativity for spatial aesthetics.
• Waste cost is reduced to 4% of the total order and flooring area.

3. Traditional Installation Using the 1/2/3/4 Pattern (Running Bond Style):

The 1/2/3/4 pattern is the next expansion of the traditional installation series, with the flooring plank divided into four equal parts. The waste ratio is typically ≥ 3%.

Advantages:

• Variety and flexibility in creating unique spaces.
• Waste cost is agreed upon after discussion with Thien Ha.

4. Herringbone Pattern:

In the herringbone laminate flooring installation pattern, the planks are laid at a cross angle to each other. This installation style has two types: single herringbone and double herringbone. When customers choose the herringbone pattern for flooring, the aesthetic appeal for your home or project is significantly enhanced, but it requires more time and installation cost. With this flooring pattern, the waste cost will be quite high compared to other installation styles. This pattern increases aesthetics but also increases cost and installation time. High waste cost, greater than or equal to 15% of the total order and flooring area.
