Gable & Skillion Sheds

Value of  the shed we can build for you.

Gable & Skillion Sheds -- two different roof designs, infinite possiblities. We can customise a shed to your requirements.
  • A Gable Roof is the traditional, iconic Australian shed design with two-sided rood and and peaked centre.
  • Gable roofs suit users needing ample loft or storage, classic looks, and improved venting.
  • A Skillion Roof has a single, sloping surface that is higher on one side than the other.
  • Skillion roofs work best for modern aesthetics, narrow lots, solar power priority, and lower profile builds.

Who doesn't need more storage?

Whether it be for your tools, your bicycles & camping gear, caravan or boat, farming & machinery, commercial & industrial. We will build a shed to suit your needs.

Frequently asked questions

Gable roofs have superior airflow and extended vertical space for storage or mezzanines. They are efficient at removing rain and debris due to the dual slopes. They are easier to insulate and are typically cooler inside. 

The skillion roof design simplifies rainwater capture and solar panel installation because of the large single slope. Generally a skillion roof involves less material, although they can require stronger rafters for wider spans. 

Gable roofs suit users needing ample loft or storage, classic looks, or improved venting. Skillion roofs work best for contemporary styles, narrow lots with limited space or adjoining properites, solar power priority, or lower profile builds. Skillion roofs sometimes cost more for large sheds due to structural needs. 

Yes! Both options can be tailered by Castlerock Sheds to match property needs, functional requirements, and design preferences. We can walk you through the benefits and drawbacks of both types and design & engineer a shed of your choice. 

You could approach your local shire and ask about restrictions, or we can do it for you.

We are recognized for making the shire approval process smooth and hassle-free when building sheds in Western Australia. This removes common stress points and saves you valuable time.

Gable & Skillion Design Review

A gable roof for Castlerock Sheds features two sloping sides that meed at a central ridge, creating a classic triangular profile that maximises internal height, aids ventilation, and sheds rain and debris efficiently. In contrast, a skillion roof has a single, angled plane sloping in one direction, offering a modern look that is well suited to narrow blocks and great for solar panels and easy rainwater collection.
