How we got it
tiles = ⌈area ÷ (tile W × tile L) × (1 + waste)⌉; mains = ⌈width ÷ main spacing⌉ + 1

How to use it
- Type your measurements. Feet-inch (12' 6 1/2"), decimal feet and metric all work; a bare number means feet or metres.
- Need is the exact amount. Buy rounds up to whole bags, sheets or pieces, with the waste % included.
- "How we got it" shows the formula, so you can check every number.
- A "Check this" note means a value looks unusual. Have a look before you buy.
