Frequently Asked Questions
Quick Answers
How much waste should I add when ordering shingles? Most roofers add 10–15% waste to cover cutoffs at hips, valleys, and ridges, starter strips, and a few damaged bundles. Steeper or more complex roofs with many valleys need closer to 15%. This calculator defaults to 10% and lets you adjust the factor up or down.
Do I need nails and underlayment when I order shingles? Yes. Plan on roughly $0.10–$0.15 per square foot for roofing nails and fasteners and $0.08–$0.12 per square foot for synthetic underlayment. Both are included in Proof Construction's installed quotes, so you never have to source them yourself — call (918) 734-4444 for exact pricing.
How many bundles of shingles do I need per roofing square? One roofing square equals 100 square feet. 3-tab shingles run 3 bundles per square, architectural shingles run 4 bundles per square, and luxury designer shingles run 5 bundles per square. Multiply your roof's total squares by the bundles-per-square for your shingle type, then add 10–15% for waste. The calculator above does this instantly.
