To find the sq. ft of a roof you have to measure the length and the width and multiply those figures together. Then you divide that figure by 100 and it will tell you how many squares of shingles it will take to cover it.
The site below that explains the pitch - how to measure it with a calculator to use with pitch and calculate the total footage of your roof
Unless you have a flat roof, no; the surface area of the roof will be larger than the ground area of the building.
The square footage of your house is not the same as the square footage of your roof if there is any pitch. If you are asking aboutasphalt shingles, generally each bundle covers 33.3 square feet. Therefore find the square footage of your roof, divide it by 33.3 to find the number of bundles, then multiply the original square footage by 5-10% to get the number of additional bundles for cutoffs and starter strip. The variation in percentage accounts for the number and length of valleys of the roof. Example:[@5%]roof =1500 ft2 --> (1500/33.3=45.05) (1500x.05=75 -->75/33.3=2.25)45.05 + 2.25= (48) bundles
Use the square footage of your house, and the size of your roof should be about the same. Be carefull not to include the yard in the footage or anything that is not covered by the roof, then divide the number by the number of stories your house is.
In order to calculate the square footage you need to find the length and the width of the room in feet. You multiply the length and the width to give you the square footage of the room

from the peak down to the beginning of the gutter --and then from side to side and then multiply this number x 2 since there are two sides on the roof-- then devide the total you get by 100 and you will find out how many square.
