Ordering Tiles:
Additional Tip: Tilemall provides a 10% tick-box option to include in your order, accounting for potential waste and breakage. This ensures you have enough tiles, especially important if batch variations necessitate ordering more tiles later. Note that areas with irregular shapes or the use of large-format tiles may result in a greater amount of waste.
