How it works

The area to cover is divided by the coverage of a single tile, then increased by your waste percentage to allow for cuts, breakages and future repairs.

Frequently asked questions

How much waste should I allow?

10% is normal for straight layouts; use 15% for diagonal or herringbone patterns.

Should I round up?

Always. Tiles are sold in boxes and dye lots vary between batches, so buy the full extra box.
