Frequently Asked Questions

The Online Store

All "field tile" from seattletiledirect.com is sold in full-carton containers to ensure proper packaging and to cut down on breakage during handling. It reduces wait time when picking up directly at our vendor warehouses and decreases the chance of error when pulling the appropriate quantity. It is not possible to divide full boxes, and no returns will be accepted of overage resulting from required full box purchases.

Placing An Order

We recommend having your installer calculate quantities if possible. This is because they have been in the physical space to take measurements and have allowed their desired amount of overage in final calculations. Read this blog post for basic instructions on quantity calculation. Part of being able to offer better prices online is cutting down on the staff hours required to assist in each phase of the design and ordering process. If you need drawing or quantity calculations please visit theSeattle Tile Showroomwebsite.

Not all sheets are equal to 1 square foot. Divide desired number of square feet by square foot coverage of a sheet to get your number of pieces. Please consult your installer for final quantities.
