How to Stagger Flooring Panels
- The Goal is to not repeat or line up offset lines for at least every 3-4 rows.
- Try to avoid having boards that are shorter than 12" or 17" in your pattern.
- The rule of thumb is that if it's a 48" product, use the 12" rule on the offset.
- For 72" products up to 8 feet, use the 17" offset rule
