Does anybody know how to work out how many tiles are needed to cover an area of roof? I don't know how they go on but know there is some kind of overlap, just not sure what? I'm wondering what kind of roof to put on the office.....

Good luck with bumping a five year old thread. Still, I've learned what hiab means so that's something.

on a good day hiab means the stuff lands exactly where you need it ,on a bad day it means tarquin and charles have parked their range rovers opposite each other and gone to school for the day blocking the street and everything needs man hauling 100m from outside the pub cos the wagon wont fit

mostly hiab is good if you dont live here.

ps at least the van men buying pies are easily found and available to move the blockage

You got a HiAb: just pick up the rover and move it...
