Floor Tile Calculator

Large-format floor tile needs a higher waste allowance — pattern match and breakage on big pieces add up. This preset uses 20% waste on a 13 by 15 ft room.

Square feet per box is editable because carton sizes differ by tile dimension. The assumptions block lists every figure used.

Controls below set room size, waste, and coverage.
