This tool helps you quickly estimate the cost of installing a polished concrete floor based on your specific requirements.
How the Polished Concrete Floor Cost Calculator Works:
Enter the dimensions of the area for the polished concrete floor, including the length, width, and thickness of the floor. These measurements should be in meters and centimeters respectively. Then, input the cost per square meter for the polished concrete. If there are any additional surcharges, add them in the respective field in dollars. Upon pressing the “Calculate” button, the total cost will be displayed in the “Total Cost” field.
How to Use the Calculator:
- Enter the length of the room in meters in the “Length” field.
- Enter the width of the room in meters in the “Width” field.
- Enter the thickness of the polished concrete in centimeters in the “Thickness” field.
- Enter the cost per square meter for polished concrete in the “Cost per square meter” field.
- If there is any additional surcharge, enter the amount in the “Additional surcharge” field.
- Click the “Calculate” button to get the total cost.
How the Total Cost is Calculated:
The total cost is calculated based on the area of the floor and the cost per square meter. The formula used is:
Total Cost = (Length × Width × Cost per Square Meter) + Surcharge
Limitations:
- The calculator does not account for irregularly shaped rooms.
- Prices can vary; the costs calculated are estimates.
