Is it better to build a house in rural areas with a flat roof or a tile?

In rural self-built houses, theoretically, whether the roof is flat or tiled is a matter of personal preference, and it doesn't matter which is better. However, most people in modern times forget that building a house can't appear? The teardrop room? Phenomenon, if there is such a room, there used to be a saying that there is a teardrop room at home, and dad is crying. Let me tell you what kind of treatment is used for the roof:

To build this kind of house, we should avoid the teardrop room. Even if you don't believe it, it is easy to become the laughing stock of others in the countryside. The so-called teardrop room is the highest tile. On rainy days, the rain they shed does not fall to the ground, but drops on the tiles in another place next to them. This is called a big room and a small room, called the teardrop room. As for what the teardrop room is like, you can see the picture below.

The picture above shows that when it rains under the high eaves, the rain will flow down the lower tiles, just like tears. In the past, it was necessary to avoid this phenomenon when building tile houses in rural areas.

This is one of the reasons why tile houses look beautiful, but in rural areas, relatively few people use them now. Because if you want to avoid the teardrop room, you need to do a good job in design and balance the height, distance and rain direction of each roof tile. Just building a house in the countryside. Usually, you won't hire a professional designer. Just look at other people's drawings and follow the cover.

Flat-roofed houses are far less beautiful than tiled houses, and the heat insulation of the top floor is relatively poor. However, it is not without benefits. Flat-roofed houses can be equipped with a water tower on the roof, and a water pump can be installed in their own wells to pump up the water, so that there will be homemade tap water at home.

Flat-roofed houses are more durable than tile houses. Because the tile house has been used for a long time, if the tile is subjected to external force, it will be broken, and there will be water leakage in the house, and the risk and cost of maintenance are too great.

To sum up, generally speaking, if there is no shortage of money from an aesthetic point of view, I personally think it is better to cover the roof with tiles, which makes people feel comfortable from the appearance. As for the teardrop room, as long as a professional designer is invited, it can naturally be solved perfectly.

However, if my family conditions are average, I think it is better to use a flat-topped house. Flat-roofed houses are durable. Even if there is water leakage and the top floor is very hot, there are many solutions.
