How we calculate skirting board
We calculate the perimeter, subtract door openings, add waste and divide by the length of each piece. The final quantity is rounded up.
perimeter β doors β add waste β divide by piece length
Not every offcut is reusable
Corner orientation and joint positions limit reuse, so mathematical leftover is not always usable material.
Remember accessories
Include end caps, joints, corners or adhesive if your system needs them; they are not included in this cost estimate.
