Thanks to our team’s versatile skill set and industry experience, we offer a range of new roof installations to suit domestic, commercial, and industrial requirements. However, before choosing a material, there’s an important question you must ask yourself: whether you want a pitched or flat roof.
The best roofing system for your property will depend on factors unique to your situation. That said, here are some comparisons between pitched and flat roofs to help you decide. We can also conduct a roof survey to recommend the most appropriate roofing system for your property.
Pitched roofs are the most common roofing style worldwide for a reason. Thanks to their traditional sloped design, water and snow can easily drain off the surface into the gutters that line the roof edge. This helps prevent water damage and debris build-up, helping it last for many years. Additional benefits include good ventilation and insulation, a distinctive aesthetic appearance and low maintenance costs.
Although less common amongst domestic clients, flat roofs have steadily gained popularity. Whilst they may not drain as well as pitched roofs, flat roofing is still a worthwhile choice for a new roof installation. Typically, flat roofs are cheaper and quicker to install than pitched roofs; however, they really excel in accessibility. Whether it’s a roof terrace, rooftop garden, or additional storage space, these roofs can add practical value.
