Estimating Tip: Use 92 tiles for every 100 square feet of finished roof coverage, then account separately for waste, cuts, roof complexity, accessories, and local installation requirements.
Important: Confirm roof-deck condition, underlayment requirements, fastening patterns, slope limitations, wind-zone requirements, fire-rating assemblies, and tear-off requirements before installation.
