Conical Roof Repair, Replacement, and Precautions

Conical roofs, sometimes called a witch’s hat, cone roof, turret roof, dome roof, spires or vaults are often used to cover residential and tower shape structures.  The most common conical roofs found on Texas homes are made from a series of tapered flat roofs, creating a series of hips forming an inverted cone shape.  Another common conical roof design features stacked rows of slate. As seen on luxury homes. They are frequently found on top of towers in medieval town fortifications, castles, and Victorian houses.  The architectural design of the conical roof really enhances the exterior elevation and adds value to luxury homes.







Here you see several conical roof repaired or replaced by PERTEX roofing, on luxury homes in north Texas.  One undeniable element of the conical roof is many of them have a very steep slope.  This obviously increase the odds of danger for any roofing company.  Therefore it is imperative that you find a roofing company that has experience repairing or replacing conical roofs.  Conical roofs are especially difficult to roof for several reasons, but particularly due to the "cone shaped" structure.
