Read MoreLeftover Roofing Shingles: What To Do?
Roof materials are measured in ‘squares’, with 100 square feet equaling one square. After that, the roofing squares are separated into three bundles.

As a result, roofing shingles are usually leftover with no apparent purpose. You may find yourself with an extra bundle or two, depending on your agreements and terms with the contractor.
