How to Measure
To order PBR panels from Bobco Metals, accurate measurements are crucial. For roof or wall coverage, measure the total length of the area from eave to ridge or from end to end. The panel length should match this measurement. For the quantity, measure the total width of the area and divide by 0.99 (the effective coverage width of a standard 12-inch PBR panel is approximately 11.88 inches or 0.99 feet). This calculation will give you the number of panels needed. Always account for overhangs and trim requirements. It is advisable to provide a detailed diagram or plan to our Los Angeles sales team, who can assist with takeoffs and ensure you order the correct amount of material, including necessary trim and flashing components.
