Typically you will consider two types of roof - a flat roof or a pitched roof. A pitched roof can be constructed using clay or concrete tiles or using natural material such as slate. There are even synthetic slates available for use. An alternative often used in the US is a shingle or shake roofing which is a lightweight composite material like a felt tile. For a flat roof great care must be taken to ensure that it doesn't leak as it more prone to standing water. Flat roofs can be covered with bitumen, rubber or metal.
