Mansard roof
An attractive roof
A mansard roof certainly adds a touch of elegance to a building. In fact, it’s an easily recognizable structure. It is distinguished by its double slope on all sides. The lower slope is steeper. A building with this type of roof generally commands a higher market value. There are many reasons for this:
- Visual charm
- Additional living space
- Energy efficiency

Building materials
The materials used in a mansard roof are selected with great care. They must withstand the rigors of the Canadian climate. Lovers of traditional style are partial to terracotta tiles. They also appreciate natural slate. These durable materials lend a classic charm to the building. A mansard roof can also be made of more modern materials. You can opt for composites or metal. Your building will retain its traditional look. What’s more, it benefits from optimum energy efficiency.
Maintenance and renovation
It’s important to maintain a mansard roof regularly. This ensures its durability. As soon as the roof is installed, particular care is taken with insulation and waterproofing. This can be a real challenge, given the slopes and angles making up the structure.
The challenge can easily be met. At Toitures LV, we use advanced installation methods. We also select top-quality materials. Our technicians have experience and know-how. They have a thorough understanding of mansard roofing issues. We give you the assurance of a successful renovation. We also take care to preserve the building’s architectural integrity.
Complying with regulations
The installation or modification of a mansard roof must comply with certain regulations. In Canada, the rules can vary from province to province. So be sure to check with your local authorities. That way, you can get on with the job with complete peace of mind. Generally speaking, you need a building permit. There are also various technical requirements to take into account:
- Insulation
- Ventilation
- Fire safety
Compliance with regulations is essential to ensure the comfort and safety of occupants. At the same time, owners can avoid penalties of varying severity.
