The choice between a flat roof and a gable roof depends on the house design, budget, architectural style and climate conditions.
A gable roof is a classic and practical solution. Rainwater and snow can be drained relatively easily, and the construction is generally simpler. It can also provide space for an attic or loft.
A flat roof gives a house a modern appearance and can allow the roof area to be used as a terrace or for other purposes. However, it requires very careful waterproofing and drainage. Problems with these systems can lead to water infiltration.
In Moldova's climate, a roof needs to withstand rain, snow and temperature changes, so proper design and construction are essential regardless of the type chosen.
A gable roof can be easier to maintain, while a flat roof offers greater architectural flexibility. The right choice should be based on the project requirements, not only on appearance or price.
