Planning your outdoor tiling project? Our Joint-It Porcelain Epoxy Grout Calculator table makes it easy to estimate the amount of grout you’ll need for your porcelain tiles, whether you’re creating a new patio, pathway, or any other area.
In the calculator table below, you’ll find the approximate coverage per tube (pictured) of Joint-It Porcelain Epoxy Grout, specifically designed for use with outdoor porcelain tiles. The table is organised by tile size and joint width (3mm or 5mm) to give you an estimation based on different layouts. Simply match your tile dimensions and joint width to find the approximate square metre coverage each tube provides, so you can determine the number of tubes required for your project.

Flag size (mm) | Coverage – 3mm Joint Width | Coverage – 5mm Joint Width |
|---|---|---|
220 x 900 | 1.25 sq. m | 0.81 sq. m |
300 x 600
| 1.46 sq. m | 0.95 sq. m |

An Example
Your porcelain patio is 50 square metres, with 600 x 900mm flags and a 3mm joint width. Using the table above, you would get coverage of about 2.76 square metres per tube of Joint-It Porcelain Epoxy Grout. To calculate the total amount you need, take the total square metres and divide by coverage per tube amount:
50 / 2.76 = 18.12
You will need approximately 18 – 19 tubes of Joint-It Porcelain Epoxy Grout for your project.
Important: Use this table to calculate the approximate amount of product needed to complete your project. Coverages provided are for estimating purposes only. Actual jobsite coverage may vary according to such factors as job conditions and application methods.
If you are inexperienced with using this product, keep in mind that you may need to use more than expected during application and that the amount estimated by this calculator may be insufficient.
These calculations do not account for an edging border around your paving, which may require additional tubes of Joint-It Porcelain Epoxy Grout.
