Tile is flooring material. Tile is used for the smooth surface of the floor and wall. It is not very hard to calculate the total cost of tile in a room. Let us start our calculation to get the Cost of tile flooring step by step.
Cost of tile flooring Calculation
Step-1
1) Calculate The Area of the Floor
Area = Length x Breadth of Room
= 16 x 12 = 224 Sq. feet
Step-2
2) Calculate the Area of the Skirting
Skirting is the border at the bottom of the wall to prevent the wall from dirt, water seepage, etc. It also makes the edge of the wall attractive.
Area s1 = Length x Height
= 16’ x 4” x 2
= 16’ x 4/12’ x 2
= 10.66 Sq. feet
Area s2 = Length x Height
= 12’ x 4” x 2
= 12’ x 4/12’ x 2
= 8 Sq. feet
Step-3
3) Total Area of Tile Required
Area = Floor Area + Skirting Area
= 224 + 10.66 + 8
= 242.66 Sq. feet
Step-4
4) Add 10% Wastage
= 242.66 x 10% 0f 242.66
= 242.66 + 24.26
= 266.926 Sq. feet
Step-5
5) Total Cost
Cost = Total Area x Rate of tile per sq.feet
= 266.926 x 80
= Rs. 21,354.08
