The skillion roof is a single flat surface positioned on an angle for water drainage. It takes its name from its similarity to the angle of a mono-pitched roof, sloped lean-to or shed roof. The slope of a Skillion roof is significant compared to regular flat roofs with a slight incline.
Skillion roofs are a versatile roofing choice, and have become a popular outdoor construction due to the industrial/minimalist look, which often leads to a choice of more streamlined roofing material. The skillion is simple and cost-effective, making it suitable for many types of structures in any climate.
As a larger outdoor roofing option skillion roofs are suitable for warehouses, commercial buildings that require minimal upkeep and for small-sized factories.
As an indoor construction option skillion roofs are suitable for sheds where the roof is angled to direct water away from the walls and buildings where there is a need for minimal interior support.
Skillion roof is distinguishable from traditional gabled roofs which are made of two sloping sides that meet at a central peak. Like other types of roofs, we can design different slopes and shapes for varying purposes.
