💡 Pro Tips

  • Measure your backsplash area carefully: Account for outlets, windows, and the space behind your range hood.
  • Choose the right tile size: Smaller tiles (mosaic) are easier for backsplashes with lots of cuts. Larger tiles work well for floors.
  • Plan your layout: Dry-fit your tiles before applying mortar to ensure your pattern looks balanced.
  • Order extra tiles: Get 10-15% extra for cuts, mistakes, and future repairs. Dye lots vary between batches!
  • Save everything to your project: All calculations save to your browser. Visit "My Project" for your complete materials list.
