Professional Tile Cutting Guide
📐 Formulas & Wastage Lookup ▼
Tile Calculation
Tiles = Area ÷ TileArea × (1 + WasteFactor/100)
Always round up to whole tiles. Purchase 5-10% extra for future repairs.
Pattern Wastage Guide
| Pattern | Waste | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Straight | 10% | Minimal waste, easiest layout |
| 45° Diagonal | 15% | Corner triangles create waste |
| Herringbone | 20% | Complex cuts at borders |
| Basket Weave | 12% | Moderate waste at edges |
| Running Bond | 10% | Offset pattern, moderate waste |
Blade Life
Diamond: 200-400 sqft (ceramic/porcelain)
Ceramic: 100-200 sqft (ceramic only)
Dry Cut: 50-100 sqft (quick jobs)
Wet Cut: 300-600 sqft (with water cooling)
💡 Pro Tips ▼
- Buy all tiles from the same dye lot — color varies between production runs.
- Dry lay tiles first to plan cuts and minimize waste before cutting.
- Use a wet saw for clean cuts on porcelain and natural stone.
- Mark cut lines with grease pencil, not marker — it wipes off easily.
- Keep 2-3 spare tiles for future repairs — matching later is nearly impossible.
- Account for grout lines — 1/16" to 1/4" spacing affects total tile count.

📐 Rumus Pemotongan
⚠️ Kesalahan Umum
Meremehkan limbah.
Mengabaikan arah pola.
Menggunakan lebar nat salah.
Tidak mempertimbangkan ketebalan.
Tidak mempertimbangkan potongan di sekitar rintangan.
💡 Tips Profesional
Selalu pesan 10 hingga 15 persen ekstra.
Rencanakan dari pusat ruangan.
Gunakan gergaji basah berkualitas.
Tandai garis potongan dengan jelas.
Simpan ubin cadangan dari batch yang sama.
Berlatih sebelum memasang.
Pertimbangkan lebar nat saat menghitung.
❓ Pertanyaan yang Sering Diajukan
Pesan 10 hingga 15 persen ekstra untuk pola lurus. 15 hingga 20 untuk diagonal. 20 hingga 25 untuk pola kompleks.
Ukur area total dan bagi dengan area satu ubin. Tambahkan faktor limbah.
Tergantung ukuran dan lebar nat. Untuk ubin 300mm sekitar 0,5 hingga 0,8 kg per m².
Potongan sederhana pada keramik dengan pemotong manual. Porselen dan batu membutuhkan gergaji basah.
Perekat standar untuk keramik. Perekat modifikasi polimer untuk porselen.
