Quick answer
Container home roof options include the container’s own flat roof (sealed and insulated), a pitched or over-roof added for drainage and insulation, and a shade or solar structure. A well-sealed roof is the most important defence against water, since steel rusts if it stays wet.

The flat roof
The container’s own roof can serve if it is properly sealed, insulated and drained. It is the simplest, lowest-profile option.
Pitched or over-roof
A pitched or over-roof improves drainage, adds an insulation layer and can give a more house-like appearance. It also shelters the steel from direct rain.
Drainage
Whatever the style, water must run off and away. Poor drainage is the leading cause of roof leaks and, over time, corrosion.
Insulation and heat
A roof layer reduces heat gain from the sun, which improves comfort and cuts cooling costs in hot climates.
Solar and shade
The roof is the natural home for solar panels or a shade structure, pairing well with an efficient, insulated unit.
