Barrel roof

Home / Glossary

A barrel roof is a type of roofing design that is characterized by its curved or semi-circular shape, which resembles the shape of a barrel or a half-cylinder. The barrel roof is typically used in residential and commercial construction as a design element, and is often used on entryways, porches, or small sections of a roof.

Barrel roofs are typically constructed using a series of curved or arched roof panels that are installed side by side to create the curved shape. The panels are typically made from a variety of roofing materials, including asphalt shingles, metal panels, or clay or concrete tiles. The panels are installed using a series of special clips, brackets, or other fasteners that are designed to hold the panels in place and maintain the curve of the roof.

Barrel roofs can add visual interest and curb appeal to a building, and can also help to channel rainwater away from the roof and prevent water damage. However, they can be more challenging to install and maintain than traditional pitched roofs, and may require additional attention to detail during the installation and repair process.

Overall, barrel roofs are a unique and attractive option for homeowners and commercial building owners who are looking to add a distinctive element to their roofing system.
