Scalarcut knowledge base

Enter one wall, pick a tile, and read the Estimate and Cut list. Ten minutes from an empty canvas to a piece count you can order from.

The metres you type become the piece count you order. Measure the face that gets tile, pick metres, centimetres or millimetres, and match a floor to its shape.

Place the opening at its real size and position. The Estimate drops that area, and the Cut list shows the pieces around the frame — that is the order.

Pick the layout pattern on the Material tab, then read Total tiles and Cuts. The same floor in Grid and in herringbone is not the same order.

Every piece that is not a full tile is a row: where it sits, its size in millimetres, how many, and how it is cut. That list is what you hand the tiler.

You can draw the whole layout as a guest. The quantities, the save, and the Project Blueprint open when you create a free account.

Sliver Guard finds strips thinner than 50 mm and shifts the layout to remove them. If a shift cannot, those pieces stay marked so you can change the start point.

Order from whole tiles and cut sizes, then round to box packs — not from “area plus 10%” alone.

Grout depends on the joint, the tile size, and the net area. Use the figure from the material list and buy whole packs.

Adhesive and primer follow the area after openings, plus your order allowance: about 4.5 kg/m² and 0.2 L/m². Buy whole bags from that figure.

The Blueprint is the PDF you hand to the tiler: layout drawing, dimensions, Estimate and Cut list. Free accounts export 3 a month, Professional unlimited.

Generate makes a photo of the 3D view you are looking at — the same tile, the same door, the same angle. The picture does not change how many tiles you need.

Measure each bathroom wall and the floor, subtract the tub and openings, then get piece counts and a layout — before you DIY or call the tiler.

Floor layouts show where cuts land along walls. Set room size, pattern, and start point — then order from the piece list.
