KNOW HIDDEN ROOF DESIGNS BEFORE YOU DECIDE TO BUILD


*🏠 KNOW HIDDEN ROOF DESIGNS – BEFORE YOU DECIDE TO BUILD*  

*Are you attracted to modern homes with a sleek appearance? Read this before you build one.*


✅ *What is a Hidden Roof?*  

A *Hidden Roof* is a roof style concealed behind a parapet wall, making the roofing sheets invisible from the outside. These homes are popular in urban areas and are often called “Contemporary Houses.”


🌟 *BENEFITS OF HIDDEN ROOF*  

✔️ Modern and elegant appearance  

✔️ Roof is hidden – protected from strong winds  

✔️ Uses fewer roofing sheets, timber, and nails  

✔️ Ideal for windy environments  


⚠️ *CHALLENGES OF HIDDEN ROOF*  

❗ Poor workmanship can lead to persistent roof leaks  

❗ Hidden Roof is more than just hiding roofing sheets – it requires skilled technical design  

❗ The drainage system (gutter) must be built with proper standards  

❗ Wall and roof joints are prone to leakage if not sealed properly  


🔧 *SOLUTIONS TO COMMON CHALLENGES*  

1. *Gutter System (Drainage)*  

   - Build concrete gutters with proper slope  

   - Use high-quality waterproofing materials to prevent leakage  


2. *Sealing Roof-Wall Joints*

 - Use *Meter Flashing* to cover joints effectively  

   - Avoid nails without rubber washers – they are a major cause of leaks  


💡 *PROFESSIONAL ADVICE*  

❌ Don’t build a Hidden Roof just to save on roofing material  

✅ Build it because you love its modern look  

✅ Hire a skilled builder experienced in Hidden Roof construction  

✅ Use quality materials – from gutters and sheets to waterproofing and finishing  


📌 *REMEMBER:*  

While Hidden Roofs reduce the cost of roofing sheets, the preparation (e.g., concrete work, insulation, waterproofing) can cost as much as a regular roof. Build it right the first time to avoid costly repairs later.
