Glossary
Tiling measurement types
Area. A flat surface measured in m². Floor tiles, waterproofing, adhesive and grout coverage.
Irregular Area. An area with a non-rectangular shape, traced as a polygon. Shaped floors, splashbacks with cut-outs.
Wall Length × Height (multi_lineal_lxh). Multiple wall faces measured as a list of runs with individual heights. Standard for showers and full bathroom walls.
Wall Height × Length (length_x_height). A single wall face measured by its height and length. Standard for splashbacks and feature walls.
Multiple Trim Runs. Several lineal trim runs bundled into one component.
Curved Trim Run. A flowing or curved length of trim — around a niche, feature, or shaped edge.
Lineal. A single run of trim or edge profile measured in metres.
Count. A whole-number tally — corner pieces, niches, shower drains, fittings.
Fixed. A flat-fee line — delivery charges, removal of existing tiles, lift fees.
Hours / Days. Time-based pricing for fitting crews or day-rate labor.
QuoteCore+ terms
Actual measurement. A real-world number entered directly. Waste still applies.
Component. A re-usable line you put in quotes. Has a name, measurement type, material price, labor price, and waste settings. See Components overview.
Customer quote. The version of the quote your customer sees, labelled Tiling Works. See customer quote editor.
Digital takeoff. Measuring directly off a digital floor plan or elevation drawing. See Digital takeoff.
Extra. A line you want priced and recorded but kept separate from the main components. See Components vs Extras.
Manual quote. A quote built line-by-line for users who already have their measurements. See Manual Quote.
Pitch multiplier. Not applicable for tiling — floors and walls are measured flat. The setting exists in the app but isn't used here.
Plan measurement. A measurement taken from a plan or drawing. See Plan vs Actual.
Quote builder. The flow that builds a quote: Areas, Components, Extras, Review. See Quote builder.
Takeoff. The act of measuring a job — either digital (from a plan) or manual (on site or from your own notes).
Billing terms
Cap. A numeric limit on something your plan allows - quotes per month, components total, storage bytes, etc. Hitting a cap blocks new additions but never deletes existing data. See Tier limits.
Dunning. The process Stripe (and we) follow when a renewal payment fails: automatic card retries, status escalation through past_due - grace - suspended, with chances to recover by updating the card. See Billing.
Effective plan. What your account can actually use today. Usually the same as your purchased plan, but collapses to Starter during grace periods or after the trial ends.
Grace period. A 10-day window after a payment failure where you keep read access but can't create new quotes. See Billing.
Trial. A 14-day free taste of every feature, with tiny caps. One per account, ever. See Free trial.
