How the tile area calculator works

Pieces per m² = 1 ÷ (Tile Length × Width in m)

Instead of working from a supplier's ballpark figure, this calculator derives your tile area requirement from Pieces per m² = 1 ÷ (Tile Length × Width in m) using the exact floor area and tile format you provide. The arithmetic stays transparent: each result links back to the displayed formula, so you can audit any number. For instance: A 12 m² patio in 45 × 45: 12 × 4.94 = 59.3 - buy 65 with 10% waste. Keep in mind: Odd-shaped rooms: split into rectangles, tile each, sum the pieces. Quantities are rounded conservatively so offcuts, spillage and delivery shortages never stop work mid-job.
