Enter your roof measurements below and we will calculate the complete Metrotile Shingle material schedule for your project.
Planning a roof using Metrotile Shingle? Use our free Metrotile Shingle Calculator to quickly estimate the number of tiles, fixings and accessories required for your project.
Simply enter your roof dimensions and select the relevant roof details. The calculator will use the dimensions you provide alongside Metrotile Shingle coverage rates to produce an estimated material list, helping you plan your order before installation.
Metrotile Shingle is a lightweight steel roofing system designed to recreate the appearance of traditional roofing shingles. Each tile covers a relatively large area of roof compared with individual slates or tiles, making it quick and straightforward to install.
As a general guide, approximately 3.2 Metrotile Shingle tiles are required per square metre of roof area. However, the exact quantity needed will depend on the dimensions and design of your roof, as well as the allowance made for cuts and waste.
Our calculator does the maths for you, converting your roof dimensions into an estimated number of Metrotile Shingle tiles.
The calculator can estimate more than just the number of roof tiles required. Depending on the roof configuration and dimensions entered, your calculation can include the appropriate quantities of:
Where products are supplied in full packs, boxes or fixed lengths, quantities are rounded up to ensure the calculation recommends complete purchasable units.
We recommend including a suitable waste allowance when calculating your Metrotile Shingle requirements. This provides additional material for cutting tiles around verges, ridges, hips and other roof details.
The amount of waste required can vary depending on the complexity of the roof. A straightforward roof will generally produce less waste than a roof with multiple hips, valleys, dormers or other details.
The calculator allows for waste when determining the number of Shingle tiles and associated fixings required.
Metrotile Shingles are mechanically fixed to the roof structure using compatible Metrotile fixings. Our calculator estimates the fixing requirement based on the number of tiles required, together with additional fixings for applicable roofing accessories.
Metrotile Shingle fixings are supplied in 2.5kg boxes, with each box providing an estimated fixing capacity for approximately 280 Shingle tiles. The calculator automatically rounds the fixing requirement up to complete boxes.
Calculating a lightweight tiled roof manually can become complicated once roof area, waste, ridges, verges and accessories all need to be considered. Our calculator brings these measurements together to provide a simple estimated materials list that you can use when planning your project.
Once your calculation is complete, you can review the quantities and purchase the relevant Metrotile Shingle products and accessories from Roofin Online.
Our Metrotile Shingle Calculator is intended as an estimating tool. Results are based on the measurements you enter and published product coverage information. Roof designs, installation methods and site conditions can affect actual material requirements.
Always check your quantities and installation requirements before ordering. For complex roofs or where you are unsure about any aspect of your calculation, we recommend consulting an experienced roofing professional.
