1. Measure the length of each soffit area: Start by measuring the length of each soffit area where panels are needed. Do this by using a tape and recording the total length in feet or meter.

 

2. Calculate the total width of the soffit panels: Next, determine the width of the soffit panels that will be used. This may vary by the type of panel to be used.

 

3. Multiply the length by the width: Once you have the length and width, multiply these two numbers together to get the total square footage/meterage of each area.

 

4. Add up the total square footage/meterage: If there are several soffit areas that need panels, repeat the above calculation for each area and sum up the total square footage/meterage.

 

5. Allow for waste: It's always a good idea to consider a waste allowance when ordering materials. This can vary depending on the complexity of the installation, but a rule of thumb is to add around 10% to the total square footage/meterage to account for cutting and fitting.

 

6. Order the amount of Lisheng PVC soffit eave panels: Once you have the total square footage/meterage, you can confidently order the correct amount of soffit panels for the project.
