ExtrudeEdgesByRails http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?p=201286#p201286 will do this but to avoid enormously faceted meshes make the number of edges in each of the 'rails' the same - I've used 92 and divided some edges up in one rail - the far end could still do with some adjustment as it will mesh across the next vertex pair even if they are oddly spaced - but it gives you the idea...
The roof top cannot be made consistent in one process - but there are some tips on how to do this in the EEbyR thread here... http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?p=204339#p204339
