How to use the Decking Calculator:
Firstly work out your sq metre coverage by multiplying Width x Depth.

Eg. If your width is 6m and your depth is 3m
6(w) x 3(d) = 18sqm

Then find the closest sqm to what you require. (Highlighted on the left)

From this you can then decided whether you would like:

12 x 2.4m (Pack of five boards)
0% wastage.

10 x 3m (Pack of five boards)
.75 wastage.

8 x 3.6m (Pack of five boards)
0% wastage.

Please note: 3m reversible deckboards are slightly more expensive due to the design on the back.
