Gable or hip roof?
11 years ago
We are debating whether or not to create a gable roofline ("California'd" over existing roofline) to replace our current hip roofline over the garage. Our new entry has a gable. Would ideal architectural design call for a matching gable over the garage? Thank you for all thoughts on the matter!
