Before starting your project, it's important to calculate how much material you'll need. Here's how to do it:

1. Estimate the area to be covered, in square feet.
2. After measuring in feet, add about 5% to cover losses.
3. Multiply the result by the price per square foot of the product of your choice; add the cost of installation if applicable.
4. Check how the cork you want to install is sold. Often, these products can only be purchased in full cartons.
5. Have your calculations checked by an expert before ordering. This first step only serves to establish the budget for the work.
