Roof Tile Calculator

Calculate the number of roof tiles, battens, felt and ridge materials needed for your roofing project.

How to use this calculator

1. Measure your roof

Measure the length and width of your roof in metres. For gable roofs, measure the footprint (plan area).

2. Determine the pitch

Use an angle finder to measure the roof pitch in degrees. Most UK roofs are between 22.5 and 45 degrees.

3. Select roof type

Choose between gable (two slopes), hip (four slopes), or mono-pitch (single slope) roof types.

4. Choose tile type

Select plain tiles (60 tiles/m2), interlocking tiles (~16 tiles/m2), or fibre cement slates based on your roof pitch and style.

5. Calculate materials

Click Calculate to see the exact quantities of tiles, battens, felt and ridge materials needed.

6. Add to project

Save the materials to a project to compare prices from UK suppliers and find the best deals.
