A square of siding equals 100 square feet. To find the total squares, measure each wall plane, subtract openings, and divide by 100. A SketchMyRoof wall report does this for you. It delivers the exact count per wall and the total for the job.
One square covers 100 square feet of wall surface. Siding is sold by the square. Knowing the total squares tells you how much material to order.
Every wall face has its own dimensions. Gables, dormers, and stepped walls add complexity. A wall report lists each plane with its square footage and square count.
Windows, doors, and other openings reduce the siding area. Your report deducts every opening. You get net square footage and net squares per wall.
Standard practice adds 10 percent for waste and overlap. Your report gives the gross area. You decide the waste factor based on the siding profile and job conditions.

It depends on the wall area and openings. A 2000 square foot house with standard windows and doors might need 22 to 25 squares. A wall report gives the exact number.
A square foot is one foot by one foot. A square is 100 square feet. Siding is priced and sold by the square. Divide total square footage by 100 to get squares.
Yes. Gables have different dimensions than the main wall. A wall report measures each gable as a separate plane and includes it in the total square count.
Subtract the area of each window and door from the wall plane. A wall report does this automatically. You get net square footage and net squares.
