Roof Construction

We all know what roofs are, but there’s a lot more to your average roof than meets the eye, and one of those things is the roof construction. On this page we’ll cover some of the things to know about roof construction. First off, in general, they can be flat or sloped. For sloped, ridged, or pitched roofs, common materials include asphalt shingles, metal roof systems, tiles, cedar shakes, and many others. For flat roofs, you will see things like Built-Up Roofing, Modified Bitumen roofing, EPDM roofing, PVC/TPO roofing, and many more.
