How to Use This Calculator
  1. Enter the tile length and width in millimeters from the tile specification sheet.
  2. Enter the grout joint width in mm — the spacer size you are using (e.g., 3 mm).
  3. Enter the grout depth in mm — typically 4 mm below the tile surface edge.
  4. Enter the total tiled area in square meters.
  5. Read the grout volume in liters and the number of approximately 5 L bags to purchase.

What each input means

Tile length (mm)
Length of a single tile in millimeters. Common sizes: 300, 600, 900 mm.
Tile width (mm)
Width of a single tile in millimeters. For square tiles, enter the same value as length.
Joint (mm)
Spacer width.
Grout depth (mm)
Below edge.
Area (m²)
Total area to be tiled in square meters. Measure the floor or wall surface.

How this is calculated

Worked example, using the default values

  1. Identify Input Parameters
    4 parameters
    Tile length (mm) = 600, Tile width (mm) = 300, Joint (mm) = 3, Grout depth (mm) = 4 = 5 input(s) provided
  2. Calculate Grout volume
    Grout volume
    1.44 = 1.44
