Pitched Roofing Installation, Repair & Replacement

When building a roof for your home, a pitched roof is a common option, especially in climates that see a lot of rain and snow throughout the year. Pitched roofs are usually chosen for residences and not for office buildings, as office buildings need multiple floors and homes usually don’t exceed two or three at the most. If you are building a new home or are simply looking for pitched roofing repair, calling in a trusted roofing professional can help you quite a bit. Pitched roofs have many advantages over other types. Contact our pitched roofing contractors today!

Types of Pitched Roofs

Mono-pitch roofs

Also referred to as “lean-to” roofs, mono-pitch roofs are the purest form of pitched roofs. Mono-pitch roofs should only span a short distance, and they are a popular choice for garages and sheds.

Couple Roofs

Couple roofs are simple roofs that include rafters and a ridge beam. However, they are not often used because of their lack of lateral support which can lead to roof failure.

Collar Roofs

Collar roofs are similar to couple roofs, but they include a collar to help prevent roof spread, a common problem with couple roofs. However, the collar roof doesn’t work for structures with spans larger than 4.5 meters.

King Post Truss Roof

King post truss roofs have additional supports including a king post and struts. They are often used for projects that require a larger span.

Mansard Roofs

Mansard roofs have complex rooflines, meaning that they have more than one pitch. They also have the added support of a king post. They are used most often when homeowners require additional space under the roof (such as attic or storage spaces).

Modern Truss Roofs

Modern truss roofs are the most common roofs in modern roof construction. Their supports include webs for bracing, and they come pre-manufactured from a roofing company. Modern truss roofs are the easiest type of roofs to install, though it is still recommended that someone with significant roofing experience install them.
