This is why its so important to measure and set out your mat before you go cutting it up, eg..a ten sqm mat will give you 20 linear metres of mat, this should all be marked out on the floor before you even get it out of the box..

We're not in the arms here ya know.
I don't measure out the mat before hand but I do always measure the floor area and check mat size and work it from there.

Simple space then yeah, did one the other week though..32sqm of ufh, through three areas round an L shape dining room and round an island, 3 mats 2x 10m and a 12, you try laying that without marking it all out first

Easiest way is to shove the excess under the kick panel

loose wire kits are much easier for completed area's

I think that as this thread wasn't started by one of the regular professionals, we should really stay on topic, don't you.

 

[Time's Ran Out]

I wonder if it should've been in the DIY forum.
