Different types of pitched roofing

While the concept of a pitched roof may seem obvious, there are several design variations used widely across the world:

This type of roof slopes from just one side or part of a building, typically used in domestic extensions.

This concept involves additional ceiling joists running horizontally in between the rafters to act as a tie and offer greater strength.

Perhaps the simplest design, this type of roof has a limited span and comprises of two lengths of rafters tied where they meet at the top.

Used to increase the span of the roofing without increasing the size of the rafters, keeping costs down.

This involves raising the height of ceiling joists, typically used during the addition of attic rooms.

This is the most commonly found type of roofing in new builds, offering much greater span and the ability to accommodate a range of pitch angles.

Pitched Roof FAQs

Can liquid roofing be used on pitched roofs?2022-12-13T15:08:37+00:00

Yes, liquid PU or rubber-based systems can be applied to pitched roofs. High quality liquid waterproofing systems, such as our P500 product, typically contain a self-levelling compound. This means that an additive is needed to remove the self-levelling element. Once thoroughly combined, the product is ideal for pitched roofing.

Yes, membrane can be installed on a pitched roof or on a low pitch roof. Rubber membrane, such as EPDM, is incredibly versatile and can be installed on a wide range of surfaces quickly and easily.
