# How do I work out how many tiles I need?

We have an Area Calculator on tile product pages to help you calculate how many tiles you need. Please note we cannot be held responsible for guidance on measurements and all measurements must be approved by your fitter/contractor.

We usually recommend adding an additional 10% to your order quantity to allow for cuts and wastage. If the tile is being laid in a herringbone format, we recommend adding an additional 15%.
