Simple Tips For Getting the Best Out of Your Tiles

Use tiles to make a room feel bigger – if room space is quite small, it can make everything look stuff up. You can easily overcome this effect by choosing to lay your tiles diagonally rather than horizontally. This creates the illusion of a larger space. Optionally, you can use smaller tiles to do this as they tend to make a room feel bigger. Smaller tiles, however, often take more time to install.

How to Calculate the Number of Tiles Needed For Your Floor

Step 1: Measure the length and width of your room.

The first step involves taking measurements of the length and width of each room you’ll be tiling. Then multiply the length of each room by the width to get the square footage.

 

Step 2: Add up the square footage

Once you multiply the length by the width of each room, add the figures together. This will give the total square footage for all the rooms.

 

Step 3: Divide the total footage by the size of tile

Tiles come in different square footage sizes. For instance, there’s the 12 by 12 ceramic tiles. If you’re going for this type of tile then divide the total square footage by 12. The number you get is the number of tiles you’ll need to purchase.

However, you should buy at least 20 percent of the total as extra to allow for errors, damages, and cutting.

 

Step 4: Get the number of tile packets
