If you don't require extensive rigidity, an alternative to consider is the 6mm polycarbonate roofing sheets. It's important to note that the 6mm option is typically utilised for vertical applications, such as shed windows or smaller frames like cold frames. Therefore, if you're looking to cover a larger structure like a pergola roof, it is advisable to stick with the 10mm polycarbonate roofing sheet option for optimal performance.

Why Choose Polycarbonate Sheets?

Polycarbonate stands out as a versatile material with a multitude of benefits. Its strength is remarkable, being up to 200 times stronger than glass, yet it weighs only half as much. This remarkable combination of strength and lightweight properties makes it an ideal choice for various applications. Not only is it durable and long-lasting, but it also surpasses the manufacturer's ten-year warranty.

Polycarbonate serves as an excellent glass alternative, offering safety and ease of handling. Opting for clear sheets ensures exceptional light transmission, and they can be easily cut or drilled as needed. Thanks to its lightweight nature, installation is a breeze, and its UV stability, at least on one side, prevents any unsightly yellowing over time.

FAQs

How much fall is required?

Regarding the product's pitch, there is no specific minimum requirement. However, it's worth noting that a steeper pitch is more effective in ensuring rainwater runoff. This not only enhances waterproofing but also minimizes the risk of debris like dirt and leaves accumulating on the roof. Typically, a minimum pitch of 10 degrees is considered standard best practice, though in certain situations, a lower pitch may suffice.

What does the maximum distance need to be between the joists supporting the sheets for the 10mm and 16m?
