JointSpan Tile

JointSpan Tile Studio is an offline-first tile-field geometry and material-takeoff workbench for professional tile setters, remodel crews, trade-school cohorts, and serious bathroom and kitchen DIYers. Unlike generic area calculators, JointSpan is built around a live field workbench. Lock room length and width, tile module, joint width, layout origin (center, wall, or custom offset), orientation, and pattern—then instantly see waste percent, edge-cut previews, labeled cut pieces, and trade quantities for thinset, grout, spacers, and waterproofing membrane. Every dial updates results continuously so you can compare layouts before you stage the wet saw. PATTERN ENGINE Work in straight grid, running bond, 45° and 90° herringbone, hex, basketweave, windmill, and Versailles modular layouts. Each pattern shows live waste % and edge-cut preview so pattern choice is a field decision, not a guess. OPENINGS WITHOUT LEAVING THE BENCH Subtract showers, vanities, cabinets, and hearths. Field area, cuts, and materials recompute in place so openings stay part of the same takeoff loop. LABELED CUT SHEETS Get edge pieces, partial rows, and remnant-reuse hints listed clearly so cuts can be staged, labeled, and sequenced on site. MATERIAL TAKEOFF CARD Tile count and box count, thinset bags, grout weight, spacer packs, and membrane rolls—with an adjustable waste factor you control. Share the takeoff plus cut list as plain text for suppliers or crew leads. SEED CATALOG & DEMO ROOMS Common imperial and metric tile modules plus complete demo rooms (5×8 bath, kitchen backsplash, foyer hex, laundry, shower niche wall, and more) make the full workbench → pattern → cuts → takeoff → saved projects loop obvious from first launch. PROJECTS LIBRARY Save, duplicate, rename, and reopen rooms so crews can keep multiple jobs offline on the job site. Unit prefs (inch/mm) and default joint widths stick with you via local storage. LEARNING BUILT IN Onboarding covers layout origin, pattern waste, and opening rules. A visual pattern glossary with diagram cards supports trade students and new crew members. JointSpan Tile Studio plans real tile fields with pattern-aware waste, cut sheets, and trade takeoffs—built for setters, not generic area math. No account required for core field work; everything essential runs offline.
