Coverage

Home / Glossary

Coverage refers to the amount of roofing material that is needed to cover a given area of the roof surface. Coverage is typically measured in terms of square footage, and is an important consideration in determining the amount of material that is required for a roofing project.

The amount of coverage that is required for a roof depends on a number of factors, including the size and pitch of the roof, as well as the type of roofing material that is being used. Different roofing materials have different coverage rates, which reflect the amount of material needed to cover a certain area of the roof.

For example, asphalt shingles typically have a coverage rate of 3 bundles per 100 square feet of roof surface, while metal roofing panels may have a coverage rate of 1 panel per 10 linear feet of roof surface. It is important to carefully calculate the coverage requirements for a roofing project, in order to ensure that there is enough material to complete the job and avoid running out of material in the middle of the project.

Overall, coverage is an important consideration in roofing, and requires careful planning and calculation to ensure that the proper amount of material is used to achieve a durable and long-lasting roof system.
