Information
Knowing the grout consumption for tiles per 1 m² before starting finishing work is useful for both the tile master and the owner planning the renovation. Our online tile grout calculator will help you cope with this seemingly simple task.
The value of this technical solution is high: there is no need to download anything or register anywhere – you just need Internet access. The grout consumption for porcelain stoneware, ceramic, clinker, and any other tile is now determined in seconds and without problems.
Advantages of the online calculator
- calculates the epoxy grout consumption per 1 m² (as well as other types of material);
- high calculation speed and versatility significantly save preparation time;
- accuracy allows you to confidently plan the repair budget without additional purchases and transportations;
- the choice of material type is available, so the calculation of its quantity is adapted to the consumption specified by the manufacturer.
With careful work by the tiler, there will be no need to look for additional grout – this is especially convenient when repairing at a remote site where it is difficult to deliver building materials immediately after a call. If you want to know the grout consumption per square meter, use our calculator.
Calculations, what is needed?
- tile dimensions, including thickness;
- width of the joints to be grouted;
- total area of the laid tiles;
- type of grout (a whole range of options is offered);
- package size and its cost.
After entering this data, the amount of grout (fugue) is automatically calculated: total weight, number of proposed packages, and the cost of the entire batch. Cement, polymer, and epoxy grout are now fully under the tiler's control.
The grout consumption can be calculated depending on the area of the tiled surface and the size of the ceramic tiles. For example, for standard floor tiles of 30x30 cm laid with a joint width of 2 mm, 300 grams of grout will be required per 1 m² of area. The grout solution is prepared strictly according to the manufacturer's instructions to ensure that the resulting plastic mass fills the tile joints qualitatively. For mosaic tiles of the usual size of 5x5 cm with a joint width of 2 mm, about 1 kg of dry grout will be needed, as such significant consumption is associated with the small size of the mosaic elements and the considerable number of joints.
Tile grout, such as Ceresit, is widely used for filling tile joints. The grout consumption rate depends on the type of grout and the size of the joints. To correctly calculate the amount of material needed, use our online calculator.
If you want to know the grout consumption for tiles or joints, you need to consider the area per m² of tiles, the size, and type of tiles. Our calculator will help you easily determine the grout consumption per 1 m² of tiles.
