Professional Tiling Tips
- Always order 5-10% extra for simple layouts, 10-15% for diagonal or herringbone patterns.
- Measure multiple times and account for alcoves, doorways, and fixtures when calculating area.
- Buy all tiles from the same batch to ensure consistent color and finish.
- Consider tile size when planning: larger tiles mean fewer grout lines but may require more cuts.
