Guide to Measuring a Bathroom Using Tiles

Preparation

• Gather necessary tools
  • Measuring tape
  • Notepad and pencil
  • Calculator (optional)
• Note the size of each tile
  • Measure the width and length of a single tile
  • Record the sizes as some may vary

Measure the Floor Area

1. Count the number of tiles along the length of the floor
   • Start at one wall and count until you reach the opposite wall
2. Count the number of tiles along the width of the floor
   • Ensure to count from one side to the other
3. Calculate the total floor area
   • Multiply the number of tiles in length by the number of tiles in width
   • Multiply the result by the size of one tile to get the area in square units

Measure the Wall Area

1. Count the number of tiles vertically from floor to ceiling
   • Start at the floor and count upwards
2. Count the number of tiles horizontally from one corner to the other along each wall
   • Repeat this for each wall
3. Calculate the area of each wall
   • Multiply the number of tiles vertically by the number horizontally for each wall
   • Multiply the result by the size of one tile for the area in square units

Consider Variations

• Identify any areas with different tile sizes
  • Measure these separately using the same method
• Account for areas with fixtures or fittings
  • Deduct the area occupied by any non-tiled fixtures from the total

Finalize Measurements

• Sum up all calculated floor and wall areas

• Keep a record of each measurement for future reference

• Note: Accurate measurements are crucial for successful project execution. Double-check all counts and calculations to ensure precision.
