How many Metrotile Bond Tiles are needed for a roof…

To work out how many you will need, simply calculate the square meterage of your roof by multiplying the length by the width in metres (L x W = M²), then multiply that square meterage using the guide above.

For example: if you have a 5 metre x 3 metre roof, then the equation would be 5 x 3 = 15 (meters squared), then 15 x 2.15 tiles (number of tiles per square meter required) = 32.25 rounded up to 33 (total number of tiles needed).*

*DISCLAIMER: This is just an estimated guide based on exact coverages advised by the manufacturer, and does not allow for wastage or cuts. The roofing industry standard for this is to allow an additional 5% to 10%, depending on the roof’s complexity and the skill/experience of the person installing the product, therefore, the final decision on quantity is the responsibility of our customer or the person installing the product.
