Plan your installation so that any irregularities in the ending wall will be hidden by appliances or furniture. Plan your installation so that the flooring helps emphasize the focal point of the room. Check your measurements before you begin to make sure the planks along your ending wall won't be too narrow. Dry fit the first three rows of planks. This will help keep the rest of the floor square.
