A pent roof prefabricated garage has a roof with only one sloping surface. In contrast to a pitched roof, water only drains in one direction. This makes roof drainage of the garage simple and safe.
The pitch is usually between 5° and 15° – ideal for a modern look and efficient use of solar energy. Regardless of whether you choose a brick garage or a prefabricated concrete garage with a mono-pitch roof, the mono-pitch roof makes it modern. It offers a well-thought-out function.
A garage with a mono-pitch roof impresses with its clear form. It looks modern, minimalist, and elegant. Especially if your house is cubic or has a flat roof, a modern garage with a mono-pitch roof is a good match.
Even in combination with classic roofs, the modern roof shape of the garage looks timeless and stands out in style. The combination of concrete, glass or wood in particular creates a harmonious overall look.

This protects your garage from moisture and makes maintenance particularly easy.
👉 Tip: Rainwater can be collected in a barrel – ideal for garden owners.

A pent roof garage offers you more than just protection for your car. The higher wall on one side gives you more space above. This creates a practical garage with storage space – perfect for hanging racks, cupboards, or sports equipment.
This model is particularly popular as a garage with shelves. You can store large items such as bicycles, skis, or garden tools neatly and space-savingly. This turns your modern garage into a multifunctional space.
👉 Tip: Plan how you want to use the room at the same time – this will save you having to make alterations later.
The photovoltaic garage is a big topic. Because those who build today are thinking about tomorrow – and want to generate their own electricity. A shed roof for a solar system makes you less dependent on the electricity provider and helps to reduce energy costs.
The monopitch roof is ideal for this. It is the perfect solution for a solar installation. It works particularly well with a south or east-west orientation.
This means the roof can be put to good use. It is suitable for a classic solar roof garage or a powerful PV system on the garage.
👉 Tip: If you are installing a photovoltaic system on a garage with a shed roof, check the load-bearing capacity and cable connections beforehand. Your provider can help you with this.
An energy-efficient garage not only impresses with its technology but also with its low maintenance. The pitch of the shed roof allows water, leaves, and dirt to run off. This means less moss, less cleaning, and less maintenance.
The design of a good prefabricated garage with a mono-pitch roof is well thought out. Maintenance is only necessary once a year. This is best done after the fall.
👉 Tip: Check gutters and downpipes for leaves so everything stays functional for a long time.
