Roof Online’s Glossary of Roofing Terms

By Roof Online Staff • Updated October 8, 2022

(On the way to being the most complete roofing glossary we’ve seen on the internet. Please bear with us.)

This is a glossary of roofing terms. It also contains quite a few words that aren’t necessarily specific to roofing which can still be relevant to roofs. We aim to be comprehensive, so if you are looking for a definition and can’t find it, please let us know.
