Polycarbonate roofs are widely used in both residential and commercial buildings due to their durability,  resistance to wind and hail, and excellent light transmission properties. Over time, these roofs can become damaged or worn out, therefore requiring replacement.

Why You May Need to Replace Your Polycarbonate Roofing

Over time, polycarbonate roofs can wear down from constant exposure to the weather. Once the sheets are damaged, the roof won’t protect the building as it should and may lose its insulation, which often makes replacement the best option.

Common reasons for replacing polycarbonate roofs include:

1. UV Degradation: Years of sun exposure can leave the sheets discoloured, brittle, and far less effective.

2. Physical Damage: Hail, falling branches, or debris can crack or puncture the material.

3. Wear and Tear: Ongoing exposure to rain, wind, and heat gradually weakens the roof, causing leaks or poor insulation.

4. Aesthetic Issues: Yellowing or clouding makes the roof look tired and can take away from the appearance of your property.

Benefits of Polycarbonate Roofs

Polycarbonate roofs let natural light filter through while still blocking harmful UV rays. That means brighter spaces with less need for artificial lighting, which can also save on energy costs. They’re lightweight but tough, too — making them easier to work with and install than heavier options like metal.

Other benefits include:

• Energy Efficiency : Polycarbonate roofs can help regulate temperature by offering both insulation and sunlight diffusion, leading to lower heating and cooling costs.

• Durability: Polycarbonate material is resistant to impacts, extreme temperatures and other environmental factors.

• Design Flexibility: Available in a variety of thicknesses and colours, polycarbonate roofing can be customised to fit different architectural styles.
