Tile bids live in the finish schedule.
Tile quantities come from finish plans, finish schedules, interior elevations and details, often all four. RenderDraw proposes floor and wall tile areas, base and transitions with the source sheet on every row, so your estimator can check them before waste and pricing.
- Floor & wall tile
- Finish schedule tags
- Base & transitions
- Waste by layout
Every tile line, from every sheet.
Floor tile areas
By finish tag and room, from finish plans.
Wall tile
From interior elevations: heights and wainscots.
Base and trim
Linear feet by type.
Transitions and thresholds
Counted where finishes change.
Before tile goes to pricing.
- Finish tags match the schedule. Every tag on plan exists in the schedule.
- Wall heights from elevations. Not assumed.
- Waste by layout. Diagonal, herringbone and large-format need more.
- Setting materials. Mortar, grout, membrane and backer as separate lines.

Tile estimating software, answered.
What is tile estimating software?
Software that measures tile areas and related items from drawings and prices them with waste, setting materials and labor.
How much waste for tile?
About 10% for straight lay in simple rooms, more for diagonal, herringbone and large-format. See the tile calculator.
Does the AI decide the price?
No. It proposes quantities with sources; your estimator approves them before your assemblies, price lists and labor units are applied.
Can I test it on my drawings?
Yes. Send one representative plan set for a free sample takeoff. Your files remain private while we assess the request, and there is no obligation to proceed.
Can I measure existing bathrooms on site?
Yes, with MeasurePro, RenderDraw's iPhone and iPad room measurement app.
Send one plan set. Judge the result yourself.
A focused, no-obligation evaluation on your own drawings. Your sample files remain private while we assess the request.
- Upload one representative plan set (a legible PDF set is the most reliable starting point), plus an addendum if you have one.
- RenderDraw reviews the set and the scope you want tested.
- We follow up with what was extracted, what was flagged for review, and the most useful next step.
