Waste allowance (%)

Planning note: Enter the exact quantity printed on your box. Patterned or diagonal layouts and irregular rooms may need a larger allowance.

How the estimate works

Floor area is converted from square feet to square inches and divided by the area of one tile. The waste allowance is added before the tile and box totals are rounded up.

A 10% allowance is a common starting point for cuts and breakage. Confirm the layout and installer recommendation before ordering.
