How to Calculate Tile
What is Tile?
A tile calculator determines how many tiles are needed to cover a floor or wall based on tile size, room dimensions, and desired pattern. Always buy 10–15% extra for cuts and breakage. Large tiles (24×24 inches) require more cuts near walls but fewer grout lines; small tiles need more grout.
