What is a Pitched Roof?

A pitched roof is a sloped roof structure, typically between 15° and 45°, engineered for fast water run-off and robust wind resistance. In Aldershot, pitched roofs are built using clay tiles, concrete tiles, or natural/fibre-cement slate, with technical underlays, battens, and fixings to meet modern building regulations and withstand the region’s persistent wet and windy conditions.
We install gable, hip, and complex multi-pitch roofs, all detailed for optimal insulation, ventilation, and durability.
