Calculating the Square Footage of Your Project

To help determine the amount of tile for your needs, below is an easy to use tool for calculating the square footage of an area. To start, please provide the area measurements.

 

Estimating Tile Quantities

When measuring for floor tile the rule is:

Length x Width + Waste = Amount Needed

Waste Factor will vary based upon tile size, layout, configuration of room, patterns, etc. Typical waste factor is about 5-10%. Add 10% for tile being installed diagonally or for a room with lots of jogs and corners. These installations will require more cuts and thus more waste.
