How it works
The formula behind this calculator.

tiles = area / (tileLength × tileWidth); +10% for waste

area
Total area to cover
tileSize
Length and width of one tile

Smaller tiles mean more grout lines and more labor. Order extra for cuts and breakage, more for diagonal patterns.

Example: 10 m² with 30×30 cm tiles → 10 / 0.09 = 111 tiles; +10% = 122

Ref: Tile Council of North America guidelines

Tips
  • 💡 Tile quantity = area + 10% waste. For diagonal patterns, 15%.
  • 💡 Smaller tiles mean more grout lines and more work but allow for more complex shapes.
