ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT

HIPPED ROOF LONG BUCKBY, NORTHAMPTONSHIRE

A commonly chosen roof style in the UK is the Hip Roof, designed with four sides sloping downwards towards the property’s walls. Acknowledged for its strong construction, it stands as a suitable option for properties in areas exposed to high winds. Hip roofs are often regarded as more stable than Gable roofs.

They are constructed from tiles, including ridge, and also hip (or bonnet tiles). Many options are available regarding colour choice, type, and style of tile. Constructed properly, a Hip roof can last more than 40 to 50 years.

When it comes to maintenance of a hipped roof, it is recommended to visually check for slipped tiles, also to ensure that the ridge, and hip (bonnet) tiles are intact and not missing; it is also advisable to ensure the gutters and downpipes are not overflowing, or blocked.
