Roofing and Roof Pitch Calculators
Convert horizontal roof dimensions and pitch into sloped area, squares, and product-specific bundle counts.
Choose a calculator
Plan the order
Start with a known footprint
Use horizontal dimensions from a plan or safe measurement. Add the horizontal overhang only if excluded.
Apply the pitch once
Convert the projected area using its slope factor. Mixed pitches need separate sections.
Separate roof materials
Field shingles, ridge caps, starter strips, underlayment, and flashing are different order lines.

Roof Pitch Multiplier Table for Area Estimates
Convert horizontal roof area to sloped area with a pitch-factor table and avoid counting a gable roof twice.
