FAQ
What is the "waste rate"?
It's an extra margin to account for tiles lost to edge cuts and breakage. 5โ15% is a common rule of thumb.
Does this account for grout line width?
No, this tool calculates based purely on the tile's own size and doesn't account for grout width. For a more precise count, calculate using a size that includes the grout line.
Does this work for non-square rooms?
Yes, for a rectangular room the calculation is based on width ร depth. For irregularly shaped rooms, it's best to split the area into sections and calculate each separately.
