Tile grout quantity

Estimate grout volume and weight from tile size, joint width, filling depth and product density.

Worked example

100 × 100 mm tiles, 2 mm joints, 3 mm depth, 1 m² and 1.6 kg/L gives about 0.1864 kg before allowance.

Method

Let L and W be tile length and width, and g the joint width, all in millimetres. The joint-area fraction is approximately 1 − LW/((L+g)(W+g)). Multiply it by tiled area in m² and filled depth in mm to get litres, then by product density in kg/L to get weight.

Limits

This is a geometric estimate, not a product-approved coverage formula. Tile edges, bevels, absorption and mixing affect usage. Enter density and bag weight from the product you will use.
