• Attach your Sheet so people see your sizes and the math.
• Your town is enough. Never your address; check photos for house numbers and plates.
• Is it safe? A safety question here goes to pros verified in flooring, unless you pick another trade. Only they can call it safe or unsafe.

14′ × 12′ floor: 168 sq ft is 10 boxes (20 sq ft each), with a ¾″ gap at the walls and the underlayment and fasteners counted.

What people get wrong:

• Skipping the moisture check. Boards laid wetter or drier than the subfloor cup, gap or buckle within a season.
• No expansion gap. Wood moves with the seasons.
• Boards from one box at a time. Color and length bunch up in patches.
