Tile Calculator: How Many Tiles Do I Need?

Whether you are tiling a bathroom, kitchen, or entire floor, knowing how many tiles you need prevents costly shortages or wasteful overbuying. The FRELUX Tile Calculator takes your surface dimensions, tile size, and waste factor to calculate the exact number of tiles, boxes, adhesive, and grout.

The formula: (surface area x waste factor) divided by area per tile equals number of tiles needed. For box calculations, divide the total tiles by the number of tiles per box. Always add 10 to 15 percent extra for cuts, breakages, and future repairs.
