The easiest way is to use our Tiles Calculator! Measure your room’s length and width to get the total area. Then, input your tile’s length and width. Our calculator will determine the tile area and divide the total room area by the tile area to give you the number of tiles. Always add 5-10% for wastage due to cuts and breakage, especially for intricate patterns or oddly shaped rooms.

The flooring cost for tiles in Pakistan, including cities like Lahore and Islamabad, varies significantly based on tile type (ceramic, porcelain, marble, etc.), brand, quality, size, and design. Basic ceramic tiles might start from PKR 150-200 per square foot, while high-end imported porcelain or marble can go up to PKR 1000-3000+ per square foot. Our Tiles Calculator helps you estimate the material cost based on your chosen tile’s price per sqft.

Our current Tiles Calculator provides the exact number of tiles to cover the specified area based on the tile and room dimensions. For practical purposes, we highly recommend purchasing an additional 5-10% of tiles to account for cuts, potential breakage during installation (tiles lagane ke waqt), and minor variations. Grout lines are typically minimal for overall area calculation but ensuring you have extra tiles covers this.

Common floor tile sizes in Pakistan include 12×12 inches (1×1 foot), 24×24 inches (2×2 feet), 12×24 inches (1×2 feet), and increasingly larger formats like 32×32 inches or even larger slabs. The choice depends on room size, aesthetic preference, and budget. Larger tiles can make a small room appear more spacious.

Our Tiles Calculator primarily focuses on the material cost of the tiles themselves. The total flooring installation cost in Pakistan will also include: * Labor charges for tile setting (tiles lagane ki mazdoori). * Cost of sub-floor preparation (if needed). * Materials like adhesive, grout, and any required sealants. * Wastage and transportation. For a comprehensive quote including installation, it’s best to consult with professionals like Avenir Developments.

For most tiling projects in Pakistan, a wastage allowance of 10% to 15% is generally recommended. This accounts for cuts (especially for complex patterns like diagonal or herringbone), accidental breakages during handling or tile lagane ke waqt (during installation), and minor measurement discrepancies. For very large format tiles or highly intricate designs, this might be slightly higher.

For most tile projects in Pakistan, it’s wise to add 10-15% extra for wastage. This accounts for cuts (especially for diagonal layouts or complex room shapes), potential breakage during handling or installation (tile lagate waqt toot phoot), and allows for a few spare tiles for any future repairs. Our calculator gives you the net quantity; always factor in this additional percentage when purchasing.

Absolutely! The Avenir Developments Tile Calculator is versatile. You can use it to estimate tiles for any flat surface, whether it’s for flooring (farsh ki tiles), bathroom walls (ghusal khana ki deewarain), kitchen backsplashes, or any other tiled area in your Pakistani home or commercial building. Just ensure you have the correct area dimensions and tile sizes.

For rooms with irregular shapes (e.g., L-shaped), it’s best to divide the area into regular rectangular or square sections. Calculate the area and tile requirement for each section separately using the Tile Calculator, and then sum up the results. Remember to also account for wastage for each section, as more cuts might be involved.

The final tile installation cost includes more than just the tile material price. Consider factors like: * Labour charges: The cost of skilled technicians for tile setting (mistri ki mazdoori). * Surface preparation: Leveling the subfloor or waterproofing, which may have separate costs. * Adhesives and Grout: Quality bonding materials and grout will add to the expense. * Skirting or Border Tiles: If applicable, these are calculated separately. * Complexity: Intricate patterns or difficult-to-access areas might increase labor costs. Avenir Developments can provide a comprehensive quotation covering all these aspects for your project.
