Check the project direction
See how the room type, approximate area and tile format shape an initial installation estimate.
Tile installation project calculator
Build an initial installation estimate around your room.
Choose the project type first. The calculator then asks about tiled area, tile size, demolition and selected extras so the result reflects more than one square-foot number.

What the result is for
A useful starting point before the written scope.
Spot missing information
Use the questions to identify measurements, demolition, base preparation and extras that still need to be confirmed.
Prepare the follow-up
Keep the result, then add room photos, the project address and the selected tile before requesting a written estimate.
Have these details nearby
The calculator is clearer when the room is clear.
You do not need finished drawings. Approximate measurements and the tile information you already have are enough to begin.
Approximate tiled area
Measure each wall or floor surface separately where possible. Openings and connected areas can be reviewed later.
Tile dimensions
Use the actual tile size or the closest listed format. Size and pattern affect handling, layout and visible cuts.
Existing base and demolition
Note whether the room is over concrete or subfloor and whether existing finishes need to be removed.
Installation extras
Identify heated floors, waterproofing, niches, benches or other details when the calculator asks for them.
Why the same area can cost differently
Four parts of the room change the installation work.
The on-screen result is an initial estimate. The written scope follows the actual room, access and selected tile.
Existing surface
Removal, movement, moisture and surface condition affect the preparation that belongs in the work.
Tile and layout
Tile size, pattern, variation, exposed edges and difficult cuts change handling and setting time.
Wet-area details
Drainage, slope, waterproofing, niches, benches and glass need to be coordinated as one assembly.
Access and other trades
Parking, elevators, work hours, plumbing, electrical and cabinetry can affect sequence and responsibilities.
After the result
Turn the starting number into a room-specific estimate.
- 01

Before you begin
Questions about the project calculator.
These answers explain what the result can—and cannot—settle before the room is reviewed.
What does the tile installation project calculator cover?
It starts with bathroom, floor, kitchen backsplash or fireplace tile work. The following questions use the selected project type to ask about approximate tiled area, tile size, demolition, the existing base and relevant installation extras.
Is the calculator result a final installation price?
No. It is an initial estimate based on the answers entered. Room conditions, access, exact measurements, the selected tile and connected work still need to be checked before the written scope and final price are confirmed.
Does Mallet Tile sell tile?
No. Mallet Tile provides tile installation. The calculator asks about tile size and project details because they affect layout, handling, preparation and installation time.
Can I use the calculator before choosing the tile?
Yes. Choose the closest tile format for the initial result. Send the exact product and dimensions when they are available so the layout and preparation can be checked against the room.
What should I send after using the calculator?
Send the result with the project address, overall room photos, close-ups of the existing surface, measurements and tile details. Show drains, niches, doorways, cabinets and adjoining finishes where they affect the work.
Ready for the next check
Bring the result back to the actual room.
Send the address, photos, measurements and selected tile. We will use them to identify assumptions and prepare the written installation estimate.
