Finding a Roof Pitch

 

To measure your roof, use a framing tool such as this.  Check square with a level and record the rise.  This pitch is a 10/12
The picture on the left shows an average roof pitch and does not need an extension base.  The picture to the right shows a steeper than average pitch and will need an extension base so you don't cut into the upper design of cupola
