Roofs for Different Weather Types

Whether your home is exposed to rain, shine or snow, the roof is always directly exposed to it. And for that simple reason, you need to make sure your roof is right for the weather conditions it is exposed to. After all, it is your primary defence against the forces of nature.

Different roof types have different strengths. For example, regions with a lot of snow or rain tend to have a gable roof, so the water can run off faster. Otherwise, water may be trapped on the roof and will put unnecessary weight and pressure on the roof and the house structure. This makes waterproofing your roof another important consideration in order to protect your home from leakages.
