agree with above. 34m2 roof area + 10% = 37.5m2. tiles have different coverage. best looking at the manufactrers brochures against the tiles youre wishing to have installed. also take into account if its small plain tiles you'll need eaves tiles and tile and halves.

The amount of tiles required for a roof depends on how many square metres there are and what type of tile is being used
