How this tool works
Net room area plus waste is divided by individual tile area, then rounded up to complete tiles and boxes.
Limits to know
Tile and box counts round up from rectangular areas. Diagonal layouts, pattern repeats, cuts, breakage, trim pieces, grout joints, batch matching, and manufacturer carton coverage can require a larger order.
