Dalesq Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 It's gonna involve the dreaded maths, but on GL's site it indicates how many square inches a pack of the speed shingles will cover. I usually measure the surface area I want to cover, convert to square inches, and add some for waste. Hope this helps! :D 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Myangela Posted August 25, 2015 Share Posted August 25, 2015 I use the same method you do, Debora. I'm about to start shingling the Orchid, I have three packages of the strip shingles, two would have cut it too close. I really like how modern the strip shingles appear, too.
