AI tile takeoff & estimating software
Tile is wall and floor area plus the setting materials nobody wants to recompute. JobReadyIQ reads the tile locations off the plans and returns field area, trim, and the thinset/grout/backer to set it — including the wet-area details that drive labor.
Run a tile plan free →What JobReadyIQ reads for tile setters:
- →Wall and floor tile area, kept separate for setting rate and material
- →Thinset and grout from area and joint size where the spec gives it
- →Backer board / waterproofing in wet areas (showers, tub surrounds)
- →Trim, bullnose, and edge profiles by linear foot
- →Niches, curbs, and benches flagged as labor-heavy details
…bid-ready in about 60–90 seconds, with a code-cited inspection checklist and every quantity tied back to the sheet it came from. You review and own the final number.
How a tile takeoff actually runs
- 01
Drop in the set
Upload the plans — the system finds the finish schedule, floor plans, and interior elevations itself. Tile scope lives in all three, and wall tile especially hides on the elevations.
- 02
Floor and wall split apart
Field area comes back split between floor and wall so each gets its own setting rate — floor tile from the finish schedule and room areas, wall tile from the elevations (tub surrounds, shower walls, backsplashes), each tied to the sheet it came from.
- 03
The wet-area assembly comes with it
Backer board and waterproofing are scoped for showers and tub surrounds, thinset and grout pencil out from area and joint size where the spec gives it, and trim and bullnose come through by linear foot. Niches, curbs, and benches are flagged as the labor-heavy details they are.
- 04
Your rates, your number
Setting rates, material prices, and waste factor are yours to set — diagonal layouts and large-format tile don't waste like straight-lay 12×12. Adjust any line and the total follows; you review and own the number.
Tile estimating — straight answers.
Does it pull both wall and floor tile?+
Yes — field area is split between wall and floor so you can apply different setting rates and tile, and wet-area assemblies (backer, waterproofing) come through as their own lines.
Does it estimate setting materials?+
It estimates thinset and grout from the area and (where specified) joint size, plus backer board and waterproofing for wet areas — flagged for verification where the spec is silent.
