FAQs
Does an area-based count include every cutting loss?
The estimate follows the allowance entered. Complex layouts, borders, breakage, pattern alignment and site conditions can require a different quantity.
Which inputs do I need for Floor & Wall Tile Box Calculator (2x2 ft, 2x4 ft + 10% Wastage)?
Use Total Floor / Wall Area to Tile (sq.ft); Single Tile Length (Feet — e.g., 2 ft for 600mm, 4 ft for 1200mm); Single Tile Width (Feet); Cutting & Skirting Wastage Buffer (%), then complete the remaining fields for your scenario. The built-in examples show how those fields fit together.
What should I check before using this result?
