TIP, TRICKS & INFO

Tile Calculator

Use this table to find out how many tiles you'll need for your project. First measure the area to be tiled, then use the chart below to calculate how many tiles you need.

Remember to take into account any tiles which will need to be cut to fit the wall, the "rule of thumb" is to round up the quantity indicated in the chart by 10%.

It is probably best to draw up a quick plan if you intend to use a large number of decorative tiles mixed with plain tiles and then calculate the areas separately.
