Tile Calculator
Estimate tile count and boxes for a rectangular area with deductions and a cutting allowance.
This area estimate excludes grout spacing. Diagonal patterns, corners and cuts may need a larger allowance. Use whole tiles per box.
How the calculation works
Tile count = net area × (1 + waste percentage) ÷ tile area, rounded up. Boxes = tile count ÷ tiles per box, rounded up.
