In the market, you will get different brands of tile adhesives having their own specified coverage area.
As tile adhesives are a ready-made product, the cost & volume of tile adhesive will vary according to the type & brand you have chosen.
Let us understand this with an example.
For calculation purposes, I have taken the data given by the Roff brand as shown below.

Given data by company:
Weight of one bag = 20 kg.
Adhesive laying thickness = 3mm.
Coverage area = 5 to 6 m²/bag.
The cost of Roff TO2 type tile adhesive 👉 approx. INR 390/- per 20kg bag.
Calculation:
Let us consider a wall of size 6 ft. х 18 ft. to be installed with tile.
Let us provide an adhesive layer of 3mm. thickness as the wall has a uniform surface.
Area of wall
= [ 6 ft. х 18 ft.]
= 108 sq ft.
Area in m²
= [108 ➗ 10.764]
= 10.03 m²
The number of adhesive bags required for the wall
= [wall area ÷ coverage area/bag]
= [ 10.03÷ 5 m² / bag ]
= 2 bags.
The total cost of tile adhesive
= [rate/bag х no. of bags]
=[ 390/- х 2]
= INR 780/-
👀. The cost of tile adhesive/ m²
= [total adhesive cost ÷ total covered area]
= [ 780 ÷ 10.03]
= INR 77.77/- per m² .
= INR 7.22/- per sq ft.
Thank you for going through these calculation steps❤. Have a good day 😄.
