Gable roof

A gable roof combines a robust look with a practical construction that stands up to the elements. Whether you go for a compact garden building or a spacious outdoor retreat with a canopy, a gable roof completes your design. What's more, the space under the roof can be cleverly put to use, for added storage for example.

Timeless and versatile

The gable roof's popularity is no accident. Thanks to its symmetrical shape, it has a calm, balanced look and works just as well with modern homes as it does in rural gardens. What's more, you can decide the pitch of the roof yourself. A steeper pitch gives the garden building a classic profile and helps snow and rain run off more quickly, while a shallower pitch creates a more contemporary look.

Looking for something a touch more modern, but with the same basic shape? Then an asymmetric roof is a great alternative. Here, one roof surface is shorter than the other, giving a subtle but contemporary twist on the classic gable roof.
