How It Works

• Add rooms, hallways, and stairs separately: Input precise dimensions for every space – living rooms, bedrooms, L-shaped family areas, narrow hallways, and multi-flight staircases. The calculator automatically handles transitions between straight runs and angled areas without complex manual adjustments.
• Choose carpet type and roll width for accurate seam planning: Select from broadloom (12', 13.5', 15'), berber, frieze, cut pile, or patterned carpet. HomeArize automatically calculates seam locations, minimizes waste through optimal roll layouts, and flags potential pattern mismatches before you order.
• Apply pattern match and waste factors automatically: Built-in logic applies 10-25% waste based on pattern complexity, room shape, and installation method. Directional patterns get higher allowances for proper alignment; simple solids use minimal waste for maximum efficiency.
• View total linear yards, sq ft, and material needs instantly: Get comprehensive output showing net coverage, seam count, total linear footage by roll width, number of rolls required, pattern waste summary, and optional cost breakdowns. Export results as PDF spec sheets for suppliers and customers.

HomeArize builds in installer know-how that generic tools miss – decades of field experience translated into intelligent algorithms that think like seasoned carpet layers, not mathematicians.

HomeArize Flooring Software Advantages

• Handles patterned carpet and complex layouts effortlessly: Automatic pattern repeat calculations prevent the costly "one more yard" surprises that destroy margins. Complex rooms with multiple doorways and obstacles get optimized material layouts that save 12-20% vs. manual estimating.
• Syncs with HomeArize inventory for real-time stock checks: See exact yardage available across dye lots and colors before committing to a layout. Prevents ordering materials that don't match existing installations or mix poorly with on-hand inventory.
• Exports results to proposals and job sheets: One-click integration sends complete carpet specs to customer proposals, work orders, and installation schedules. Includes cut lists, seam diagrams, and installation sequencing for crew briefings.
• Reduces over-ordering common in manual carpet math: Field-verified accuracy shows HomeArize users order 15-22% less material than spreadsheet estimators while eliminating shortages. Savings compound across every residential and commercial job.
• Stair and landing precision: Unlike flat-area calculators, HomeArize handles riser/tread calculations, landing waste, and nosing requirements with industry-standard multipliers that prevent material shortages during final installations.
• Multi-dye lot management: Flags potential color variation risks across large jobs and suggests optimal roll combinations for consistent appearance across entire installations.
