Use BharatUtility's free Tile Calculator to estimate how many tiles and boxes you need for flooring, bathroom walls, or kitchen backsplashes. Input room area, tile size, and wastage percentage.
Room Area (sq ft) = Length × Width | Single Tile Area (sq ft) = (Length in inches × Width in inches) / 144 | Total Tiles = (Room Area / Tile Area) × (1 + Wastage % / 100)
ext{Tile Area} = rac{L_{in} imes W_{in}}{144}, quad ext{Total Tiles} = rac{ ext{Room Area}}{ ext{Tile Area}} imes (1 + W%)Room: 10 ft × 12 ft (120 sq ft) | Tile Size: 2 ft × 2 ft (24x24 inches) | 10% Wastage Allowance
Calculating tile quantity for room flooring or bathroom wall cladding requires measuring room floor/wall area, calculating single tile area in square feet, and applying a cutting wastage allowance.
Floor Area (sq ft) = Room Length (ft) × Room Width (ft)
Adding 10% cutting wastage is essential to cover corner trims, diagonal cuts, doorway fits, and accidental tile breakage during installation.
For a 10x12 ft room (120 sq ft) using 2x2 ft tiles with 10% wastage:
1. Net Tiles = 120 / 4 = 30 tiles
2. With 10% Wastage = 33 tiles
3. Total Boxes (4 tiles per box) = 9 Boxes
Divide total room floor area (sq ft) by the area of one tile (sq ft), then multiply by 1.10 to include 10% wastage.
Tiles must be cut to fit edges and corners. 10% wastage covers cutting losses and breakage.
In India, standard 2x2 ft (600x600 mm) vitrified tile boxes contain 4 tiles (16 sq ft per box).
A 10x10 ft room (100 sq ft) needs 25 tiles net, or 28 tiles (7 boxes) including 10% wastage.
Yes, calculate total bathroom wall area (wall perimeter × height minus doors/windows) and enter wall tile dimensions.
Skirting tiles run along the bottom perimeter of walls. Add 5% to 10% extra tile area for skirting.
