A new roof can add value to your home and improve its curb appeal, but which system works for you depends on your roof’s pitch. When you need a local Lafayette expert to help you pick the best roofing system for your roof pitch, call Baseline Roofing and Solar. Below are three examples of the various roof pitches:

A roof’s pitch (also called slope) is the steepness or angle of your roof. A roof's pitch is calculated by how much it rises vertically for every 12 inches it extends horizontally. If you hear us talking to you about roof pitch, you’ll probably hear it it'll be in the form of a ratio. So, for example, a roof that is 4 inches up for every 12 inches out is called a “4/12” pitch. Understanding how your roof’s pitch affects the style of roof you can have is critical. Luckily for you, we can help you with any questions you might have and will always recommend the best roofing system for you based on pitch, cost, and energy requirements.
