Different Roof Types

If you are looking for inspirations to the right type of roof for your properties, below is a list of the most common types that you can choose from:

Mansard

This is also referred to as a French roof. It is four-sided and has two slopes on either side. The slopes meet to form a low-pitched roof.

Skillion

This roof is also referred to as a lean-to or shed roof. It comprises of single and sloppy roofing and is normally attached to a tall wall.

Sawtooth

As the name suggests, this roof is designed with a serrated side view and has two or more pitched sides with alternating vertical and sloped surfaces.

Jerkinhead

This is also referred to as a snubbed or clipped gable roof. It is more of a gable roof but with clipped off-peak ends.

Saltbox

A saltbox roof has an asymmetrical design with two sides leaning to and slopping flat. The roof has gables on each end.

Bonnet

Also known as a kicked-eaves roof, a bonnet roof is double slopped and like a reverse mansard. The roof has a lower slope that is set at a less angle than the upper one.

M-Shaped

This is a gable roof resembling the letter M. It has two sloped sides meeting in the middle.

Dome

Dome roofs are usually polygonal in design with an inverted bowl shape.

Curved

As the name says, this roof type appears curved.

Hip

This is a roof with slopes on all its four sides. The roof’s sides are equal in length and meet at the top of the roof to form a ridge.

Pyramid

A pyramid roof looks like a hip roof. It has four sides that meet at a point on top of the roof.

Dutch Gable

A hybrid of hip and gable roofs gives rise to a Dutch gable roof. For more aesthetic appeal and space, a Dutch gable roof is formed by placing a roof on top of a hip roof.

Gable

This is among the most common roof designs. It features a triangular shape and can be made from a range of materials such as cedar shakes, clay tiles, concrete tiles, metal, and asphalt shingles. The different types of gable roofs include side, crossed, front, and Dutch gable roofs.

Gambrel

A gambrel roof is more like a mansard as it has two slopes. The only major variance between the two roofs is that a mansard roof has four sides, while Gambrel has two.
