DIFFERENT TYPES OF ROOFS
One of the most crucial elements of building/designing a new house is the roof plan. A roof is essential for multiple different reasons, a roof shelters us from various weather conditions while also providing great structural support to the building, helping the walls bear the load and ensuring the structure's integrity. Demuro Roofing understands the importance that the roof holds for every household. Our experienced crew is here to help you out with choosing the roof that suits your needs the best.
There are numerous roof options to choose from, including.
A Gable Roof is a triangular-shaped roof with two sloping sides meeting at a ridge. It’s simple, effective for shedding water and snow, and provides good ventilation.
For that matter a hip roof can also be installed in which all four sides slope down towards the walls, forming a ridge at the top. Hip roofs are more stable than gable roofs and, therefore, more suitable for areas that are quite windy.
If you want something different a flat roof with a slight slope for drainage can be opted for. Flat roofs are commonly found in urban areas and modern designs as they allow for a rooftop bar and patio sitting space as well as accomplishing two birds with one stone. If you love giving an artistic look to your home an architecturally appealing roof design can also be considered. The Mansard roof is a French design with a double slope on each side, the lower one being steeper. Enabling the creation of more attic or living space under the roof, mostly in historic and Victorian architecture.
Very similar to the Mansard roof, A Gambrel roof can also be installed. In contrast to the Mansard, this has four sides instead of two and was often found in barns and colonial homes due to the advantageous headroom and storage space that it created in the attic. If these two do not suffice, a little more artistic creativity can also be achieved with a Butterfly roof that is shaped like an open book with two panels sloping inward that mirror the presence of a butterfly and this is where it derives its name from as well. This distinct design helps collect rainwater and is commonly found in eco-friendly and modern homes.
These roof designs provide various advantages, impacting a house’s durability, appearance, and functionality. If you want something light on your pocket go for a Gable roof. It is very easy to construct while also being cost-efficient with snow drainage due to the sloped design. We meticulously pay attention to sall your needs and derive the best possible solution.
