How to read the quantities
The material allowance is 1.2 roofing squares × $140 = $168. Installation is 100 sq. ft. × $3.50 = $350; one uses a purchasing quantity and the other the scoped repair area.
What the example includes—and leaves out
A roofing square represents 100 square feet of area. This example repairs 100 square feet but allows 1.2 squares of replacement shingles. The purchase allowance must be checked against the actual product, pattern and repair extent.
Outside this scope: No whole-roof replacement, decking replacement, structural repairs, hazardous-material handling or guarantee of conditions outside the inspected repair scope.
Keep unresolved selections and site conditions visible. If a measurement, material choice or repair requirement changes, revise the relevant quantity or allowance and share the updated estimate before proceeding with the added work.

Common questions
What is a roofing square in an estimate?
It is an area unit equal to 100 square feet. Label it clearly so it is not confused with one square foot or one bundle of shingles.
Can a small roof repair estimate include decking replacement?
Include it only when assessed and quantified, or label it as a separate allowance. Do not imply unknown decking damage is covered by a surface repair price.
