How it is calculated
- Each tile takes its own size plus one joint: (length + joint) × (width + joint).
- Tiles = area ÷ space per tile, plus the margin, rounded up.
- If you give the number per box, we round to whole boxes. Cost = area bought × price per m².
Example
20 m² of 60 × 60 cm tiles, 3 mm joints, 10 % margin, boxes of 4: 55.0 exact tiles, 16 boxes so 64 tiles (9 spare), 23.04 m² bought, cost 576 at 25 per m².
Good to know
- For diagonal or patterned layouts, plan 15 % margin or more.
- Keep a few tiles from the same batch for repairs.
- Adhesive and grout are not counted.

- Geometry; usual margins of 5 to 15 % depending on the layout
