Tile quantity estimate

Tile Calculator

Estimate whole tiles and boxes for a rectangular surface using actual tile dimensions and an editable allowance.

Enter surface and tile dimensions

Enter measurements and select Calculate.

Tile quantity method

Surface area is divided by one tile’s area, then multiplied by 1 + the entered allowance and rounded up to whole tiles. Boxes are rounded up from the entered tiles-per-box value.

Installation boundaries

This estimate does not optimize layout, patterns, grout joints, edge cuts, breakage, box dye lots, substrate, or installation requirements. Verify actual tile and box coverage.

Worked example

A 12 ft by 10 ft surface using 12-inch square tiles requires 120 tiles before allowance and whole-box rounding.

Estimate boundaries

Results use only your entered measurements and assumptions. No supplier, product, price, contractor, building-code, or geolocation API is contacted.
