Types of Pitched Roofing
Depending on your property requirements you will require a different type of pitched roof according to the measurements, shapes and steepness of your roof. Some of the most common types of pitched roofs include:
Gable Roof
A gable roof is one of the most common types of pitched roof designs. It has two slopping sides that meet at a ridge, forming a triangular gable at each end. It is the best choice of roof to protect against the natural elements such as heavy rainfall, wind and snow. It is simple to maintain and install whilst being a cost-effective choice.
Mansard Roof
A mansard roof (French curved roof) is a roof with four sides that have a double slope on each side. All sides meet in the middle to form a lower-pitched roof. A mansard roof is the best choice for homeowners who plan to add extra rooms or sections to their house in the future.
Gambrel Roof
A gambrel roof is similar to a mansard roof but is built with two different slopes on each side. The upper slope is shallower, while the lower slope is steeper, creating more space in the loft. It is a great choice for people who want a simple, cost-effective, roof that can withstand rainfall and the elements.
Hip Roof
A hip roof has slopes on all four sides which are equal in length. These sides come together to meet at the top and create the roof ridge. This design is known to be more stable than a gable roof offering better resistance to high winds and extreme weather conditions.
Why choose a pitched roof for your property?
There are some major benefits to choosing a pitched roof over other types of roofs on the market. Some of the advantages of a pitched roof include:
- Protection: A pitched roof’s triangular shape allows the roof to be more stable and a lot more effective when dealing with things such as extreme weather conditions. The shape of the roof deflects water away from the roof leaving little chance for it to pool on top of the roof.
- Thermal Efficiency: Due to the shape of the pitched roof, the triangular structure allows for natural ventilation below the top roof layer. This can significantly improve the thermal efficiency of your property keeping it at the optimal temperature in the summer and winter.
- Energy Savings: Pitched roofs are built to allow natural ventilation between the outer layers and the building helping you to save energy and spend less on your energy bills.
- Longer Lifespan: Although pitched roofs may be more expensive to install, they are far cheaper to maintain requiring less frequent repairs and being more durable with longer life spans.
Pitched Roofing Repairs
The UK weather is unpredictable at the best of times, with extreme rainfall, frost and heat all being the norm through different seasons in the year. This leads to your pitched roof going through a lot as it battles the natural elements. This leads to your pitched roof getting damaged over time and can result in leaks and structural damage.
