Steps to Building Your Own House - Roof

Correctly roofing your house is one of the most important factors involved in your build. The main roof structure must be waterproof, must be durable to the weather, must be strong enough to support itself and any live loads that may occur and is a vital aspect of the aesthetic quality of the house.

There are many choices to make regarding your roof. Initially you need to decide whether you are going to use a traditional cut roof or a prefabricated trussed roof. Both have their advantages, the trussed roof is simpler and quicker to erect whereas the cut roof leaves more room for alterations later on, if for instance you want to use the attic space for something such as a bedroom or an office. Cost wise, generally the differences between the two tend to be minimal.

Once the structural roof is decided upon, you can decide on the roof finishes although a lot of planning approvals tend to influence this decision in order to keep the house in line with other buildings in the area. For the most part your main decisions revolve around, tile or slate, PVC or timber fascia and soffit, type of ridge tile etc.

Another item to ensure is incorporated into your roof is the ventilation. This is something to discuss with your ฝากขายอาคารพาณิชย์ engineer and generally most of your ventilation is provided with vents in the soffit at regular intervals around the perimeter. This can be supplemented with tile or slate vents in the main roof itself and with a vent running under the ridge tile.

Some extra tips when erecting your roof are to ensure the timber is treated at least where it comes into contact with the block work and beyond if possible. I would also recommend making allowance for a stira attic stairway as it is a great advantage to have and can be a lot more hassle to try and install at a later date.
