What you are looking at
A ranch home puts a lot of roof in view from the street. This one is a wide, low roof with a chimney near the ridge and a long valley where the two wings meet.
Low slopes drain slower than steep ones, so the valley matters more here. The shingles on both sides are cut evenly to meet it, which keeps water moving in one channel instead of working under the edges.
We finished this one in October, ahead of the first freeze. A roof that goes on before winter gets a few weeks of sun to seal the shingle strips down before the snow load arrives.
