Tile, adhesive & grout estimation

More than a calculator - a full project estimating & quoting platform

Build a complete, room-by-room estimate for an entire project - not just a tile count. Multiple rooms, real material quantities, and a ready-to-send quote, accurate enough to defend to a client. Free to use, no account required to get started.

What it does

Built on how tiling actually works, not a rough guess

Most calculators guess. Tell us your rooms and tile choices, and we work out the exact number of tiles, boxes, bags of adhesive, and kilograms of grout your project needs - floor and wall calculated separately, the way a real job actually works.

Floor and wall, calculated separately

They almost always use different tile sizes - most calculators blend them into one number. We don't.

Real box counts

A 600×600mm tile might ship 3 or 4 to a box depending on the manufacturer. We use real packaging data, not a flat "divide by 4."

Adhesive and grout, done properly

Coverage depends on tile size. Grout has an actual formula - joint width, joint depth, and tile size all matter.

A full estimate, not just a number

Build an entire multi-room project, add your own pricing, and get a ready-to-send quote - not just a single tile count for one room.

Common questions

What it is, who it's for, and how it helps

Tile Calc works out exactly how much tile, adhesive, and grout a tiling job needs - room by room, based on real dimensions, tile sizes, and layout choices. Instead of a rough guess, it calculates floor and wall separately, accounts for doors, windows, and fixtures, and gives you a complete, ready-to-use material breakdown in about two minutes.

Anyone who needs an accurate material estimate - contractors and architects quoting a job, homeowners planning their own renovation, and tile, grout, and adhesive businesses who want to offer this same calculator to their own customers, branded as their own. The same accurate calculation works for all three, just presented differently.

Quote faster with numbers you can defend - real box counts, adhesive and grout quantities, and a full breakdown for every room in a project, not a rough average. Manage multiple projects at once, apply GST or leave it off, add your own pricing, and export a clean PDF ready to send a client.

Put a fully branded version of this calculator on your own website - your logo, your colors, your domain. Customers get an accurate estimate before they ever place an order, meaning fewer mismatched batches and fewer disappointed returns. It also gives your dealer network one consistent, on-brand tool every dealer can point customers to.

Wastage is the extra tile you need beyond the bare minimum, to cover cuts, breakage, and pattern matching. It isn't a flat percentage here - it's worked out from your chosen layout and room size, since a diagonal or herringbone pattern wastes noticeably more at the edges than a straight grid, especially in a smaller room.

Skirting - the thin tile strip along the base of a wall - gets its own dedicated calculation, always shown as its own separate line rather than merged into your floor tile count, since it's genuinely a different material decision even when cut from the same tile. You choose the height and tile size yourself.

No, not to get an estimate. An account adds saved history, pricing, and a few other extras - see what a login unlocks on our help page.
