This tool calculates the estimated cost of roofing materials and installation based on your input.
How the Roof Price Calculator Works
This roof price calculator estimates the total cost of roofing based on the dimensions of the roof, the pitch (angle) of the roof, and the cost per square meter. Here’s how to use it:
- Enter the length of the roof in meters.
- Enter the width of the roof in meters.
- Enter the pitch (angle) of the roof in degrees.
- Enter the price per square meter of the roofing material.
- Click the “Calculate” button to get the estimated total price.
How It Calculates the Results
The calculator uses the following formula to calculate the roof area considering the pitch of the roof:
Roof Area = Length × Width × sqrt(1 + tan(Pitch in radians)²)
Then, it multiplies the roof area by the price per square meter to get the total estimated cost:
Total Price = Roof Area × Price per Square Meter
Limitations
While this calculator provides a good estimate, it has the following limitations:
- It assumes the roof is a simple flat rectangle. More complex roof shapes are not accounted for.
- It does not consider waste or additional materials that may be needed for installation.
- Real-world factors such as labor costs or regional price variations are not included.
