Here is how to properly measure and calculate total square footage of the space. 1  Split the room into separate areas. 2  Measure each area of the room separately (area 1, area 2, area 3). 3  Calculate the square footage of the each space by multiplying length by width. 4  Room: Length (ft) x Width (ft) = Square Footage.
2. Multiply the total square footage by the waste factor. Use a waste factor of 5 to 7 percent for perfectly square rooms, 10 percent for standard rectangular rooms, and 15 percent for a room with multiple angles, or if youâre planning a diagonally patterned floor. Round up decimal points to the nearest whole number.
