How is it calculated?
Tiles = area ÷ tile area × (1 + waste)
Grout joints are small enough to ignore for the count. Buy tiles from the same batch, and keep a few spare for future repairs.
Enter the size of the floor or wall and the tile size. Add 10% for cuts and breakage (15% for diagonal layouts).

Tiles = area ÷ tile area × (1 + waste)
Grout joints are small enough to ignore for the count. Buy tiles from the same batch, and keep a few spare for future repairs.
10% for straight layouts, 15% for diagonal or herringbone patterns.
About 2.8 tiles (0.36 m² each), so 3 per m² before waste.
