solver 1095 Posted September 22, 2015 You could also clean up the large roof plane in the front by raising the fascia height over the porch. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

solver 1095 Posted September 22, 2015 Roof Plane Specification. You could also clean up the roof over the back porch. Start with a hip roof. Add a wall and adjust dimensions as needed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kelly_K 29 Posted September 23, 2015 You could also shorten your barge eves, e.g. 24" projection to 12" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
solver 1095 Posted September 23, 2015 Changing the pitch on the small part of the roof to 6/12 makes it a bit more tedious. The overhang on the left side of the porch is (I think) not enough, so that roof plane should be shifted to the left a bit. I did this by raising the fascia height 6", but 8" might be better. Last image shows the garage gable raised so the fascia height matches the porch, and a uniform 8/12 pitch. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
