Residential Roofing

As well as important safety precautions, there are other considerations to ensure the durability and security of pitched roofs in winter, such as choice of materials... Flat roofs are a popular choice for garages, extensions, garden offices, and outbuildings. The basic construction is fairly straightforward which is great if you want a self build project. A  timber frame forms the supporting structure with flat roof joists across the short side of the roof providing the load bearing element of the roof.
