Yeah you definitely should estimate 10%-15% more than needed. Based on the cuts you will need to make, there will be times there will be pieces you can not use.
We had estimated 10% more for materials when we had our laminate flooring put in our basement and had maybe 10 pieces left over from the last box which was pretty good. -----Original Message----- From: Ray Champagne [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, January 03, 2007 10:54 AM To: CF-Community Subject: RE: Baseboards... door and window trim..

They happen a lot, according to two friends that have attempted this themselves. :) > -----Original Message----- > From: George Mason [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Wednesday, January 03, 2007 10:40 AM > To: CF-Community > Subject: Baseboards... door and window trim.. > > We are just about finished with our kitchen remodeling.
