A modular pitched roof with two outer sections 103 which extend downwards from a ridge section 102 positioned in between them. The ridge section may be supported by the outer modules and/or the exterior walls, which the roof may overhang. One section at least, may be fabricated in a factory and the roof may be covered with slates or tiles. The modules may have shoulder shaped parts, 157 and 158, which connect them to the other modules. The roof may have a floor/ceiling section 155, or a roof space module 150, which engage with a part of the outer pitched modules and extend between the two outer modules. The roof space module can create a habitable space within the roof since it is free of supporting structures. A method of installing the roof is included, whereby the outer pitched modules are lifted onto the walls of the building via lifting gear and stepped surfaces on the modules are engaged with one another.
