Tiling videos of 'how to measure' will be available soon on my facebook page A tiling estimate is easy to work out and this how I do it when I go to see any job. All you need is a tape measure, pen & paper and a calculator. Firstly we'll measure wall tiling.
If the room is an odd shape and it's difficult to measure length and width just measure every vertical wall and add them together, then multiply this figure by the height. So you could have for example 8 Metres in length and a height of 2.4 Metres. 8 x 2.4=19.2 finished? Not yet. You now have to take out any areas that won't be tiled such as where the bath is, the window and the door. Let's say it's 15.4 Metres and as a rule of thumb you'd add 10% for cutting and waste which makes 15.4 + 10%(1.54)=16.94. We'll call this 17 Metres and this would be your tile estimate. If you allow 5 Metres of tiles to every 10 litres of adhesive and half a kilo of grout per Metre (for 17 metres) you'll need at least 4 x 10 litre tubs of adhesive and 8.5 kilos of grout. To re-cap we need If borders are needed, measure all around the room excluding windows & doors and add 10%, this will give you a total of borders needed.
Now let's look at floor tiling. A floor tiling estimate is a little easier to calculate because all you need is length x width. So for example the length could be 3.6 Metres and width perhaps 2.4 Metres. 3.6 x 2.4 = 8.64 Metres add 10% as above = 9.5 Metres If you allow 4 Metres of tiles to every 20 kilos of floor adhesive and half a kilo of grout per Metre (for 9.5 metres) you'll need at least 3 x 20 kilos of adhesive and 5 kilos of grout.

A note from Mike
The kitchen design was 'stunning' and I was fortunate enough to be called in to 'compliment' the kitchen with my tiling.
I was made welcome by the customers and I would highly recommend Ikea Kitchens without hesitation.
Mike
Very many thanks for carrying out the work at Victoria Mews, Cardiff...
It all looks great in the pictures you sent us by email...
Thank you also for liaising with your electrician Simon Webb on my behalf, for the other work we needed at the house.

We are very pleased with the work you completed for us recently. The small toilet area is now very clean, tidy and is looking good.
I found your approach and timing on the job (i.e. coming when you said you would) giving confidence that the task would be carried out efficiently and well.
Many thanks
