Can I measure floor and wall tiling from a plan?

Yes. Measure floor tiling areas and wet-area wall tiling directly from the plan, add your wastage rate, and you have the tile quantities for the quote.

Can I check fixture layouts and clearances?

Measure fixture positions and the clearances between them on the plan to confirm the layout is compliant before you commit to it on site.

Can I size waterproofing?

Measure the waterproofing zones and membrane areas from the plan so your materials and labour cover the full wet area.

How do I work out tile quantities with wastage?

Measure the floor and wall tiling areas in square metres, then add your wastage percentage, usually around ten percent, for cuts and breakages. MetreMate totals the areas so you order the right number of boxes.

How do I measure the perimeter for waterproofing angle and skirting?

Use the Perimeter tool to trace the room edge and the shower recess, and MetreMate returns the lineal metres for bond breaker, angle, and tile skirting straight from the plan.

Do I have to pay to measure my bathroom plans?

No. There is a free plan to get started and a 7-day trial, so you can upload a bathroom plan and measure the tiling and wet area before you commit to anything.
