This is one of the questions everyone always asks concerning tiling; how many tiles do I need to tile my house, how do I calculate the number of sqm needed to tile my bungalow, etc?
This post will not only answer your question about knowing the number of tiles you need for your tiling project but will give the best solution to knowing the number of tiles and sqm you need for your tiling project.
Tiles come in different sizes and quantities in a cartoon. Each carton has its total number of sqm which depends on the size of the tiles and the number of pieces in it. the number of pieces in each carton of tiles is not always constant. it depends on the manufacturer. Manufacturer A can decide to have 20 pieces in a carton while manufacturer B could be 25.
How do I know the number of tiles or SQM of tiles I need for my building?
Let’s use a tile size of 60mm × 60mm (0.06m × 0.06m). that’s 0.0036 square meters (sqm)
0.0036 × (number of pcs in a cartoon) = Number of sqm in a carton.
To get the number of sqm of tiles needed to tile a room, measure the length and breadth of the room in meters.
With the above explanation, you can determine the number of tiles needed for your tiling project.
What if I show you a better approach to getting the number of sqm that will be enough to complete your tiling job? This will make provisions for tiling, skirting, and breakages.
