Question 1

1. Are PVC roof sheets the same as plastic roof sheets?

Accepted Answer

PVC roof sheets are a specific type of plastic roofing. Plastic roof sheets cover a range of materials, including PVC, polycarbonate, acrylic and GRP, each with different strength, light transmission and durability properties.

Question 2

2. Which roofing sheet is best for a garage?

Accepted Answer

If you’re looking for garage roof sheets, box profile steel sheets are durable and suit low pitches around 4° - good for garages and industrial structures. Alternatives like EPDM, GRP and certain boarded bitumen systems offer wider flexibility for flatter roofs or specific performance needs.

Question 3

3. What’s standard for shed roofing sheets?

Accepted Answer

In the UK, shed roofing typically uses corrugated bitumen or metal sheeting around 2.6–3 mm thick. This performs well over minimum pitches of 7°–10°, or down to ~5° if properly supported by boarding

Question 4

4. Which type of clear roofing sheets are best for letting in natural light?

Accepted Answer

Multiwall or solid polycarbonate sheets transmit up to 90% daylight, remain highly impact‑resistant, UV‑protected and suitable for lean‑tos, conservatories or rooflights while reducing artificial lighting.

Question 5

5. Can you use roof sheeting instead of tiles or slates?

Accepted Answer

For sheds, garages or temporary structures, lightweight roofing sheeting provides fast installation and waterproofing. However, it’s typically unsuitable for pitched domestic roofs where tiles or slates remain standard.
