Regular Roof Style

Advantages: The unique feature of the regular roof style metal structures is the radius bend transition from the roof onto the legs or posts, marking it as the most budget-friendly among the three roof styles offered by National Custom Builders. This design aspect negates the necessity for right angle joints at the juncture of the sidewalls and the roof line, as the roof gracefully curves over the edges. This approach eliminates the need for welding posts, employing a hat channel for supporting vertical roof panels, or the addition of eave side trim, thereby minimizing both material and labor costs, and ultimately providing a cost-effective solution for you.

Drawbacks: One distinguishing feature of the regular roof style buildings is the corrugated ridges on the roof panels that run from front to back or end to end. The horizontal alignment of these ridges tends to retain water, leaves, snow, and other debris, potentially fostering rust formation in these areas. This could curtail the lifespan of the building and heighten maintenance costs.

Furthermore, the drainage in regular roof style structures occurs at the front and back, typically where entrances or exits are often situated.

For effective debris removal, pressure washing or utilizing a ladder and broom for manual roof cleaning are the viable options.

Conclusion: While regular roof style structures present a financially attractive option, they might not offer the aesthetic appeal of an A-Frame building, especially when placed adjacent to your home.

The horizontal roof sheeting on regular style carports is prone to faster dirt accumulation, and water tends to linger on the unit longer. As a result, the roof panels on a regular roof unit may not last as long as those on a vertical roof unit.

The choice is ultimately yours, but our goal at National Custom Builders is to provide you with thorough information to assist in making an informed purchasing decision that best suits your needs and budget.

Regardless of your roof style preference, the expert team at National Custom Builders is here to assist you in choosing a building that aligns with your circumstances and financial considerations.
