Enter the total roofing area (ft^2) and the cost per square foot of roof ($/ft^2) into the Roofing Cost Calculator. The calculator will evaluate and display the Roofing Cost. 

Roofing Cost Formula

The following formula is used to calculate the Roofing Cost. 

RC = RA * CPSF

  • Where RC is the Roofing Cost ($)
  • RA is the total roofing area (ft^2) 
  • CPSF is the cost per square foot of roof ($/ft^2) 

How to Calculate Roofing Cost?

The following example problems outline how to calculate Roofing Cost.

Example Problem #1:

  1. First, determine the total roofing area (ft^2). The total roofing area (ft^2) is given as  500.
  2. Next, determine the cost per square foot of roof ($/ft^2). The cost per square foot of roof ($/ft^2) is provided as 20.00.
  3. Finally, calculate the Roofing Cost using the equation above: 

RC = RA * CPSF

The values given above are inserted into the equation below:

RC = 500 * 20.00 = 10,000.00 ($)

Example Problem #2: 

The variables needed for this problem are provided below:

total roofing area (ft^2) = 600

cost per square foot of roof ($/ft^2) = 10.00

Entering these values and solving gives:

RC = 600 * 10 = 6,000 ($)
