It comes in many different varieties, usually first defined by the shape or pattern of the ridges. There are three common design types:

  • Five Rib: Bold lines with thin ridges and sloping sides with a linear pattern
  • Greca: Flat top peaks and valleys create an angular pattern

Each of these design types is also available in any number of colours, tints, and transparencies. You can choose a single option for your entire project, or alternate different colours in the same design type to add visual interest.

Frequently asked questions about polycarbonate roofing Brisbane

Is this type of roof really worthwhile?

If you’re looking to enclose or protect an outdoor space, this unique material is an excellent choice. It is lighter weight than metal sheeting, requiring fewer structural elements to secure it in place. It also offers flexibility when it comes to light filtering, letting you choose how much of the sun you want shining down on you.

When it comes to maintenance, this material requires little upkeep compared to timber or metal which could be used instead. You won’t need to worry about rust or discolouration, and aside from some water, you need nothing to clean it with. And you can expect it to last for up to 20 years or more.

Can I install it on my own?

There’s a lot more to installing this type of sheeting as a roof or enclosure than you might imagine. For very small spaces or spans, you may be able to install it on your own, provided you have someone to help you, the right tools for cutting, and the proper sealants.

However, it’s always best to leave the installation to the professionals. You’ll want your decking awning, conservatory enclosure, or gazebo roof to last, and proper installation is key for this.

A professional contractor will check the pitch of the roof, the midspan supports, and the ventilation in line with the type of roof you select. The UV side must always be installed facing up and outward. There are also techniques to ensure overhangs are accommodated, buckling is prevented, and managing side laps.

Does polycarbonate roofing really hold up in harsh outdoor conditions?

You might think that a plastic roof wouldn’t stand a chance against heavy rain, hail, or even snow. However, these panels are designed to take on the full force of the elements. Most roof panels are warranted for at least 20 years, and homeowners find that in many instances, their panels last for much longer. They’re even considered to be more durable than tile shingles.

How well does this type of protect from the sun?

If you’re using this as a roof over a deck or in a gazebo, you’ll want your family and friends to be shielded from harmful UV rays. The great news is that this material can come with a UV resistant coating. Not only will they protect you, but the coating will preserve the actual roof material for much longer. UV rays are known to cause cracking and discolouration, but UV resistant coatings extend the life of your panels instead.

How customizable are polycarbonate panels?

While you’ll pay a bit extra, you can order custom panels to fit any shape or accommodate any thickness you need. You can also get polycarbonate in any number of colours or transparency levels, allowing you to coordinate design elements and allow as much (or as little) light in as you want.

Can you use this material in place of glass?

Yes, and it is a much cheaper and more durable option compared to glass, too. You can install this material on the sides of a gazebo (as well as the roof) to create an enclosure and control the privacy you’d like with coloured or translucent options. If you want a glass-look roof over your deck or entryway, crystal-clear polycarbonate can give you the same effect. In some cases, this option is even used in skylights.

Does polycarbonate roofing bend to fit a curved shape?

This material is as flexible as it is durable, and your installer can bend this roof to fit the curve of a roof for a custom design. They’ll need to understand the limitations of the material though since there are recommendations around minimum and maximum bending radii as well as the direction of the sheeting compared to the curve you want.
