How Per-Square Pricing Works
Per-square pricing combines the square count with a price per square, and a Wilkinson homeowner benefits from understanding it. Here is how it works.
Price Per Square Installed

Typical Per-Square Range

Squares Times Price
The total is the number of squares multiplied by the per-square price, so a larger roof or a higher per-square price raises the total. Squares times price gives the total. More squares cost more. A higher rate costs more. It is straightforward. It sets the number.
What the Per-Square Price Covers
