First Impressions Count

Perhaps you cannot judge a book by its cover, but you can judge a structure by its roof lines. In most cases, the type of roof determines the style and image projected by a home. Consider how the roof drives the first impressions made by these elegant homes.

Modern Style ​

Modern structural design is often characterized by the flat roof & low slopes as they create long horizontal lines, similar to the wide horizon seen in nature.

Craftsman Style ​

The over-extended eaves of a Craftsman roof lend themselves to having spacious porches on the front with lots of decorative details.

Hip Style ​

The Hip roof provides an elegant look where all sides are sloped. Combined with other roof styles, the hip can greatly improve curb appeal of a home.

Shed Style​

The Shed style roof has a single slope that can vary in steepness depending on the design of the home.

Cape Cod Style ​

A Cape Cod style roof has an asymmetrical design with a steep pitch to the roof on the back with a shallow pitch on the front. These homes are often seen with dormers. 

Colonial Style ​

Colonial style homes have a traditional elegance that is bold and beautiful. They are usually two stories high and have grand front entrances with tall columns.
