Tile & Flooring Quantity

“How many boxes for this floor?”

How many tiles and how many boxes — and then the bit no shop will tell you: how wide the cut tiles along each wall are going to be. Start in the wrong place and you finish on a two-centimetre sliver that looks wrong forever.

  • Add a rectangle per part of the room, take away the island and the shower tray
  • The grout gap counted in — a 600 mm tile really takes up 603 mm of floor
  • Straight, brick, diagonal or herringbone, each with its own waste allowance
  • Works out the edge cuts and warns you when to set out from the centre instead
  • Boxes, cost, and how many spares you'll have left for the day one cracks

How it works

Three steps, then you're done

Measure the room

One rectangle per part. Anything you're not tiling comes off.

Say what tile

Size, grout gap and how you're laying them.

Read what to order

Plus what the cuts at the edges will look like.

Nothing you type ever leaves your computer. There is no account, no login and no server. Switch your wi-fi off and it still works — that's not a promise about our policy, it's just how the tool is built.

Questions

Do I need to install anything?

No. Each tool is a single file. Double-click it and it opens in Chrome, Edge, Safari or Firefox — whichever you already have. No account, no password, no software.

Does anything get uploaded?

No. Your numbers and files never leave your computer — the tools have no way to send them and no internet connection is needed to run them. You can switch your wi-fi off and they still work.

I'm not good with computers. Is this too hard?

The first thing every tool does is walk you through it in five short screens with pictures. Then there's a button that fills it with example numbers so you can watch it work before touching anything.

Will it work on my phone?

Yes. Email yourself the file and open the attachment, or drop the files in iCloud Drive, Dropbox or Google Drive and open them from there — then they're on every device you own.
