Different Types of Roofs!
Whether you are building a new house or trying to learn more about your current one. Here is a list on several different styles of roofs:
1. Gambrel Roof
It is also called barn roof because it has been used extensively on barns. It provides additional headroom in the attic.
2. Flat Roof
Most flat roofs are not really 100% flat, they are low-sloped roofs that appear flat, but have a little bit of a slope to allow for the run-off water.
3. Mansard Roof
It is a French design and is more difficult to build than the hip or gable roof. It actually features two slopes within one on each side. The bottom part of the roof slope is steeper so that the pitch of the roof barely starts. This allows more room on the inside and in most cases creates an extra space.
