Roof question
As part of an extension I need to construct a pitched roof quite close
to a window (the ridge plate is parallel to the window wall) so plan to have a flat section outside the window to minimise the light loss - what's the name for a "cutaway" around a window? (my googlefoo has not worked) |

(my googlefoo has not worked) No idea, but would it not be better to dormer the window through the new roof somehow? An interesting idea but I'm trying to keep to the original 30s build style, hoping that in a few years it will look as if it was part of the original construction - a dormer would not look right. Since asking the question I've managed to re-design the roof to get around the problem (and without ever finding-out what the cutaway is called). |
