Butterfly Roof

A butterfly roof generally comprises two tandem pieces that meet midway and are angled up in a V-shape. This gives the effect of a butterfly’s wings in flight when seen from the exterior, making it a good choice for modern and contemporary homes. Not all butterfly roofs need their two pieces to meet midway physically; the only thing they need is for the two pieces to slope inward at a midpoint.

Butterfly roofs are ideal for homes in arid or desert climates, mainly because their central valley allows rainwater to be collected easily. Butterfly roofs are also suitable for a modern aesthetic and homes that can take advantage of natural lighting, as the outer edges of the “butterfly” can accommodate larger windows, such as floor-to-ceiling windows.

Due to their unique design, however, butterfly roofs can be difficult and expensive to maintain. If you're looking for smaller, cost-effective upgrades to your existing roof, check out our list of home upgrades under $1,000.
