This new type of roof attracts individuals who wish to become owners of a pleasant house. Its light weight and ease of maintenance make it an excellent solution to adapt at home. Before adopting it, however, it is advisable to consider its advantages and disadvantages.

Opting for this material above all allows you to take advantage of natural light and gain comfort in your home. The play of light in the accommodation is very pleasant and helps to reduce the cost of energy expenditure.
Since it adapts to all shapes of roof, polycarbonate can be placed above a garage, a greenhouse or even a swimming pool. It can also be used above finished or unfinished attics.
Polycarbonate is recognized as a resistant material. It can withstand shocks but also climatic variations. It can therefore last for a large number of years without deteriorating. Installing such a roof is therefore an excellent choice for furnishing your home to your tastes. It can replace less durable roofing solutions because they will require regular changes.

Polycarbonate roofing is available at a very attractive price. In effect; its price per square meter is only 40 euros. You can also install it yourself and save money to enjoy it. Under these conditions, it is very easy to adopt it for small areas that require a quality roof. This choice of layout can be imagined at a low cost.
Before installing this type of roof, it is essential to know that its energy performance is quite low. This material cannot therefore be used for the main roof. Only secondary roofs can be created with this polycarbonate. Above the garage or areas that do not require a lot of insulation, this type of roof can be imagined.
When the attic is converted into an additional room, it is essential to take this aspect into account. For an office or a bedroom, this lack of insulation can be a huge drawback.
