How Many Roofing Shingles are needed for a roof?
Just to know the number of Roofing Shingles for your name, you should calculate the entire square footage of your roof's surface to determine how much roofing material, such as bundles of architectural shingles or rolls of synthetic roofing underlayment, you'll need.
How to Determine Your Roof's Total Square Footage?
Total square footage calculation:
The length times the breadth of each roof plane, including dormers, should be multiplied.
The combined square footage of all the planes.
Can we calculate the waste factor for roofing?
A good guideline is 10%–15%. However, your outcomes may vary. Because there are typically more chopped shingles at corners, walls, and edges on more difficult roofs, the waste factor will be larger.
Having a few extra shingles is acceptable. These can be stored in case further roof damage or repairs are required.
Hence, for the example of a 24-square roof, you would need to add 2.4 squares, equivalent to 7 or 8 additional bundles. Unfortunately, this roof calculator does not calculate the waste factor, but this calculator ensures the right quantity with minimum wastage
