Frequently asked questions
Does the rate include the steel structure?
Yes - frame plus covering; that is why these run higher than sheet-only prices.
Which roof for a terrace sit-out?
Polycarbonate for light, metal with insulation for heat control - many mix both zones.
What slope does a roof need?
Minimum 5-10 degrees for sheets to drain monsoon rain reliably.
