Floor Layout: Floor Covering Software
This Javascript application enables you to easily layout your floor and calculate you total yards or square feet. This is a slimmed down version of the same software that many professional estimators use. Please remember, this is only a tool and should not be substituted for a professional's measurements.Note: After you have completed your floor layout, print this page off to keep a record of it. You may also press the "Print Screen" button on your keyboard to keep a digital copy. To do this, center the Floor Layout application and then press "Print Screen". This records a digital image of the screen you're currently viewing. In order to save that image, open Microsoft Paint, click on EDIT, and then click on Paste. Remember to save the image after you've pasted it to a place that you will remember.
Extra Note: If the above doesn't work, there's not much we can do. We are professional floor covering installers, not javascript programmers. We wish we could do both, but that would be impractical.
