How do I measure my tiles?Updated 5 months ago
Your high school math teacher warned you that your geometry skills were going to come in handy one day. Well, this is what they were talking about!
If you’re planning on using tile stickers to give your existing tiles a facelift, the first thing you’ll need to know is what size to order.
Here are some all-important tips for measuring your tiles:
- Do not include grout lines in your measurements. Tile stickers need to be applied directly on top of the tile, not over grout.
- To ensure the corners don’t peel up, all four sides of each sticker must have 100% contact with the tile face. Do not allow the sticker edge to hang over the grout lines. Tiles that have rounded edges, rounded corners, or irregular edges should be measured a few millimeters shy of the tile edge. Embossed surfaces will give poorer results.
- Can’t find your size? Unsure how to measure? We know, all these measurements are tedious. To simplify things let us calculate all this for you, We can even custom cut stickers to your exact dimensions.
