How to use this calculator

  1. Measure the length and width of your area in feet (or meters).
  2. Choose the tile size you plan to use.
  3. Set your waste factor (10% is standard for straight layouts).
  4. The calculator instantly tells you how many tiles to buy.

Why include waste?

Tiles get cut, broken, or have small defects. Most pros recommend buying 10% extra for simple layouts and 15% for diagonal or complex patterns. Better to have extra than to run short mid-project.
