How tile is calculated
Estimate tile count from floor area and individual tile dimensions, with an adjustable cutting and breakage allowance. The calculation rounds up to whole tiles and excludes grout spacing, pattern cuts, spare stock, and carton pack sizes unless you account for them in the allowance. A 100 ft² floor covered by 1 ft² tiles with 10% extra requires 110 tiles. The calculation validates each input and keeps its stated units explicit. Yes, a suitable reserve helps cover cuts, breakage, and future repairs. This is an estimate for the stated assumptions; confirm measurements and any applicable professional or local standards before relying on it.
