How many bundles of shingles do I need for 1500 square feet?

Calculating the required shingles is quite easy if the house is flat but if the house has a pitched roof then calculating the requirement is a bit complicated. The basic requirement of shingle for a 100 sq ft roof surface area is approximately around 3 bundles of 3-tab shingles. The three bundles of shingles consist of 29 standard-sized shingles whose measures are 12 inches by 36 inches. To find out the requirement of shingles for a 1500 sq ft house first determine the shed footprint which should also include the overhangs. A 1500 sq ft house will have 15 squares all of which will require 3 bundles so the approximate requirement comes around 57 bundles of shingles for 1500 sq ft.

What is the average lifespan of a tile roof?

The average lifespan of a tile roof with proper installation is around 50 years. Various factors could affect the lifespan of a tile roof. Some of the most significant factors are the type of installation, flashings, underlayments, hail, trees that fall on the roof, hurricanes, lack of ventilation, roof cement, type of valley metal, and lack of maintenance. With all these factors into consideration if you want to increase the lifespan of your tile roof maintenance plays a significant role. It is important to hire a professional for regular inspections to maintain the overall health of the roofing. It is also important to stay off the roof because roofs are not resistant to direct pressure.

How much should you save for house repairs each year?

The saving for the house repairs should be at least around 1% of the total cost of the building per year. At first, when you begin saving this one percent might seem very less but saving this 1% annually over a long time will prove reasonable. It is not mandatory that you should spend 1% of the total cost every year, some years you might not need any repairs but even then saving up will help you in the long run. The repairs that your home might need are replacing the roof every 20-30 years, trimming the trees, cleaning and replacing the gutters, replacing the vinyl windows every 35 years, replacing the carpet every 8 to 10 years, and painting or rebuilding the deck.
