How many tiles does it take to tile a 8ft sq by 8ft high bathroom?

Answer 1

If you are using 150mm tiles then its 4 tiles per sq foot approx so thats 256 tiles per wall, 1024 for the complete room, but by my reckoning (unless your bath is in the middle of the room) then at least 1 wall will have less than the 256 figure as there is no point tiling behind a bath!!, looking at the figures I would suggest you go for an itermediate size tile approx 225mm x 225mm this would use less and not look as silly as using 300mm x 300mm tiles and not as crazy as using 150mm x 150mm tiles!! (think of the time involved) also I would suggest using 2 different colours to stop you going stir crazy while your traying to relax in your new bathroom!!

Have fun

Answer 2

I will to break this down quickly for you ,if your walls are 8ft-8ft then each wall is 64ft square .If each tile was 12 inches-12 inches you would need 64 tiles to fill one wall,this would equal 256 tiles for 4 walls.If your tiles are the small one's which are 4 inches-4 inches you would need 192 tiles per wall and 768 tiles for all 4 walls.You would also have to deduct tiles for the bath sink etc. Hope this gives you some general help with your question.

Answer 3

6in x 6in tiles to cover a wall 8ft x 8ft you need 256 tiles per wall if you multiply that by 4 =1024. dont 4get to minus any doors and windows and add about 5% on for breakages.
8 x 6 tiles =192 tiles per wall
x 4 walls =768 tiles plus all the above litrature after the total tiles above.

Answer 4

Depends on the size of the tiles, and also if you're tiling just one wall or all of them.
To work it out, you need to see what it is in square feet, which is 8x8, so 64 square feet per wall of this dimention.
I've just done my bathroom, which is a similar size and I needed more than 200 tiles. It cost me about £140.

Answer 5

Depends on the size of the tiles you use. There is always a guide on the box telling you what area is covered per box.

Answer 6

Depends on the size of the tiles. Tiles can be anything from mosaic upto 1ft square.

Answer 7

Firstly one needs to know the size of tile to be used. Find that out and re-enter your question.

Answer 8

how longs a piece of string,but i gues the tile size might be a good idea

Answer 9

8 by 8 is 64 divide by 11 is 5,8 times 4 is 23,2 metres but then you must subtract door opening ..window ...area behind bath.. then allow for cuts you will need to get at least 20 metres

Answer 10

depends on the size of the tile.... if you ask in a good DIY retailer they can work it out for you and most places will refund any unopened boxes you dont use... Homebase do...
