Welcome to Lazaretto: Your Home Extension Experts!
Are you considering expanding your living space with a stylish extension? At Lazaretto, we understand that every detail counts, including the crucial choice of roof design. Whether you're envisioning a sleek flat roof extension or the timeless appeal of a pitched roof extension, we've got you covered. Let's explore the merits of each option:
Flat Roof Extension:
Flat roof extensions offer a contemporary aesthetic and cost-effective solution for your home expansion project. Here's why they're worth considering:
Pros:
Cost-Effective: Flat roofs generally come with lower construction costs due to simplified structural requirements and materials.
Modern Appeal: Achieve a sleek, modern look that complements contemporary architectural styles.
Natural Light Integration: Incorporate skylights and light wells seamlessly into your design for enhanced illumination.
Rainwater Drainage: Despite their name, flat roofs are subtly pitched to facilitate efficient rainwater runoff.
Cons:
Reduced Ceiling Height: The lower ceiling may create a perception of limited space within the extension.
Maintenance Needs: Depending on materials used, flat roofs may require more upkeep over time.
Shorter Lifespan: Flat roofs typically have a shorter lifespan compared to pitched roofs.
Energy Efficiency: They may not offer the same level of energy efficiency as other designs.
Pitched Roof Extension:
For those seeking a timeless and versatile option, pitched roof extensions present several advantages:
Pros:
Aesthetic Compatibility: Blend seamlessly with traditional house styles, often preferred by planning authorities.
Increased Ceiling Height: Enjoy spacious interiors with higher ceilings, allowing for architectural flourishes like exposed beams.
Longevity: Pitched roofs boast a longer lifespan, thanks to durable materials and weather-resistant design.
Enhanced Insulation: Provide superior insulation, contributing to energy efficiency and reduced utility costs.
Cons: Higher Costs: Pitched roofs typically involve higher initial costs due to complex engineering and materials. Extended Construction Time: Construction timelines may be longer compared to flat roofs, potentially leading to increased labor expenses.
