Frequently Asked Questions
How do I calculate tiles per sq. ft.?
To calculate tiles needed per square foot, first determine the area of one tile in square feet. Then divide 1 by this value to get the number of tiles per square foot. For example, if a tile is 1 ft × 1 ft (1 sq. ft.), you would need 1 tile per square foot.
Should I add extra tiles for wastage?
Yes, it's recommended to add 10-15% extra tiles to account for cutting, breakage, and future repairs. For complex patterns or diagonal layouts, you might need to add up to 20% extra tiles.
How do I measure irregularly shaped rooms?
For irregularly shaped rooms, divide the space into regular shapes (rectangles, squares), calculate the area of each section separately, and then add them together to get the total area.
What's the difference between calculating for walls vs floors?
The calculation method is similar, but for walls you need to subtract the area of doors, windows, and other openings. Also, wall tiles might be smaller than floor tiles, affecting the quantity needed.
