How do I use the tile calculator?

Select floor or wall tile type, enter your room length and width, choose your unit (sq.ft or sq.m), type the tile size from the box label (in mm), enter tiles per box, adjust wastage if needed, and click Calculate.

What units does the calculator support?

The calculator supports both square feet (sq.ft) and square meters (sq.m) for room area. Tile size should always be entered in millimeters (mm) as shown on the tile box.

Do I need to enter the exact tile size?

Yes, look at the tile box label for the exact dimensions in mm (e.g., 600 x 1200 mm). Enter the width and height exactly as shown for accurate results.

What is the difference between floor and wall tiles?

Floor tiles are thicker and more durable, designed to withstand foot traffic and weight. Wall tiles are lighter, often thinner, and primarily designed for vertical surfaces like kitchen and bathroom walls.

What are standard tile sizes?

Common floor tile sizes: 600x600 mm, 600x1200 mm, 800x800 mm. Common wall tile sizes: 300x600 mm, 400x800 mm, 600x1200 mm. Always check your tile box for the exact size.

How do I measure my room for tiling?

Measure the length and width of the room in feet or meters. For irregularly shaped rooms, divide the area into rectangles, calculate each separately, and add them together.

Why should I add wastage?

Tiles can break during cutting, transportation, or installation. Adding 10-15% extra ensures you have enough tiles to complete the project and match replacements for future repairs.

How many tiles do I need per box?

Check the tile box label â€” it always shows the number of tiles inside. Enter this number so the calculator can tell you how many boxes to buy.

Should I buy extra tiles?

Yes, always buy 10-15% extra tiles. This covers breakage during installation and ensures you have matching tiles for future repairs. Keep the batch number noted.

Does tile pattern affect the number of tiles needed?

Yes, patterns like diagonal, herringbone, or Versailles require more tiles than a standard grid layout. Add 15-20% extra wastage for patterned installations.
