Tile Layout Planner guide

Compare two symmetric starting phases on one finished layout axis.

Measuring assumptions

Enter the clear span, finished tile size, grout joint, perimeter gap, and minimum acceptable edge cut in one unit.

How the calculation works

The planner subtracts both perimeter gaps, then evaluates tile-centred and grout-joint-centred phases across the usable span. It reports equal opposing cuts, full tiles, joints, and threshold warnings.

Worked example

Load the built-in example, compare both phases, then replace every value with verified site measurements.

Limitations

Walls, tiles, movement joints, openings, slopes, trim, and tolerances vary. Confirm the proposed set-out, manufacturer requirements, and field dimensions before cutting or installation.
