The majority of floor manufacturers as well as fitters recommend a
minimum of 5% wastage when ordering a wood floor, this will hopefully
allow for those small mistakes and complicated cuts. Sometimes on
occasions there are small pieces that cannot be used anywhere without
spoiling the look of the floor.
