ClarityHow to use this tool
- Enter area to cover, coverage per roll, waste allowance.
- Select Calculate to view the result.
- Check the method and assumptions below before using the result.
The method, explained
Rolls = ceil[area × (1 + overlap/waste allowance/100)/roll area].
Using area to cover = 20 m², coverage per roll = 25 m², waste allowance = 10 %, the result is 1 rolls. Change these example inputs to match your task; use the method above to check each step.
What to keep in mind
A material-quantity estimate, not a structural design or building-code check. Confirm site measurements, supplier coverage and waste before ordering.
