About the Tile Calculator
This estimator compares a rectangular surface area with one tile face area and rounds the result to whole tiles.
Estimation formula
Tile count is surface area divided by tile face area, rounded upward. The waste allowance is applied to surface area before calculating the second count.
Example
A 12 m² area using 0.6 m × 0.6 m tiles needs 34 whole tiles, or 37 after a 10% area allowance.
Notes
The estimate does not model layout direction, grout spacing, edge cuts, patterns, breakage conditions or differently shaped rooms.
