How to Measure a Kitchen Backsplash for Tile

Measure kitchen backsplash sections, avoid double-counting and estimate tile quantities from net wall coverage.

Estimate laminate flooring cartons from room area, allowance and the product's stated coverage per box.

See how different flooring waste allowances affect the total buying area and the number of sealed cartons.

Compare individual tile quantities with whole-box purchases and understand why ordering can leave extra tiles.
