Ceilings that are Part of your Roof

Insulation for Ceilings that are also Roofs

When the ceilings and  roof are the same, they have are exposed beams, and tongue and groove sheathing that is visible from inside the house. These types of roofs do not have attic areas and commonly lose heat through exposed beams on the roof. The sides slope equally and usually meet in the middle of the room. The ceiling has the same pitch as the outside roof. The roof rafters are usually tongue and groove boards and can be seen from inside the building. 

If you like your decorative ceiling you will need to install the insulation on top of the roof. For better insulation your roofer will needed install a vapor barrier, radiant barrier, or rigid insulation panels over the roof and sheathing. Nail ½ inch plywood over the insulation and re-roof.  There many other ways to deal with this situation.

Some Guidelines To Help You Choose The Best Color Selection For Your Roof Shingles

Since the is roof biggest fixed structure of the house. The color of the roof has to fit the color scheme of the rest of the house. For example, if the color of the house is dark, then you might want to contrast that with a lighter color. If the siding is light, and the window frames dark, the trim light, you might want to consider a in the middle of dark and light color.

Usually window shutters, and doors are of darker color. Your job is to find a color scheme that brings all the colors together. 

 Also, be aware of the trees. Do trees cast a shadow on your house, making your house look darker? Not only do you want to look at the color scheme of your own house, but look at the most used color in your area.

 You want to choose a color that fits with the surrounding. Make sure not to duplicate your color scheme with someone near by.

 If the place you have is for commercial use, consider lighter colors for more serious space, like an office or hospitals. More bright colors for fun places like the zoo or a place to eat. Also consider the color scheme of the logo.

 You do not need to get the exact color, for example, every stone of your house is slightly different. But you get the overall tint. Then look for a color scheme, or an accent, a matching scheme, or a complementary scheme. 

 The human eye generally catches lighter/brighter colors first, then the middle colors, and then dark colors. You can use this to see where the eyes will go first. Are the light/dark colors moving horizontally? You have to also consider the climate of the place you are in. In Texas our climate color is sandy, sun drenched, etc.

 How much of the roof is by the garage? The garage is generally of a lighter color. Do you want to contrast it, or you want to match the color scheme.
