Tile Calculator — Free Online Calculator

Calculates the number of tiles and quantity of material needed for flooring or walls.

What is it?

The tile calculator works out how many tiles you need to cover a given area, adding a user-defined waste percentage to account for cuts and breakage.

Formula

Net area = room area − excluded areas Tiles needed (gross) = ceil(Net area / Tile area × (1 + waste%)) Boxes = ceil(Tiles needed / Tiles per box)

Example

Floor 12 m², tile 60×60 cm (0.36 m²), 12% waste. Gross tiles = ceil(12 / 0.36 × 1.12) = ceil(37.33) = 38 tiles.
