Roofing sheets, or roof panels, are incredibly popular in a wide range of applications, from domestic roofing, garages and outbuildings to agricultural and commercial structures.

Roofing sheets are commonly used to roof agricultural buildings, due to the large sizes of roof sheet available. The roof of an agricultural building can be massive, so if a more traditional method of roofing is used it would take a long time to install.

Roof sheets are popular on agricultural projects when the buildings are used for storage of biological materials or animals; this is because, the roofing sheets allow some levels of natural ventilation, whilst also helping to retain heat in the winter and reduce heat absorption in the summer.

Roof sheets are an incredibly popular choice of roofing material on industrial buildings due to the quick and easy installation as well as the high strength and impact resistance nature of them.

Roof sheets, particularly twinwall and multiwall polycarbonate roof sheets, are a great option when building or restoring garden outbuildings. They allow daylight into the building, whilst retaining some heat and ensuring the contents of the building are kept protected from any weather conditions are great benefits.

The quick and easy installation process of roof sheets means that they can be fitted by anyone with limited DIY knowledge and experience.

Roof sheets are lightweight, easy to handle and waterproof, meaning they are the perfect option for a carport or garage. A combination of opaque and transparent roof sheets can be used to allow natural light into the room or choose metal roof sheets to provide a long-term, durable roofing solution.

Roofing sheets are incredibly versatile. They can be used in a wide range of different applications, buildings, projects and situations. Roof sheets are manufactured from a host of materials and come in a variety of profiles, colours, sizes and thicknesses.

Roofing sheets are incredibly lightweight when compared with more traditional roofing materials such as tiles. Roof sheets are generally quite thin, which reduces the weight of the material, meaning that transportation, handling and installation are quicker and easier.

Roof sheets are generally provided in large sizes, which means that fewer modules are required to fit an entire roof, compared to the number of roof tiles for the same project. This means that the installation process is quicker, as fewer fixings are required, and it is also more straightforward than traditional tile installation.

Roof sheets are most commonly manufactured with a corrugated profile, which provides the perfect solution to water build-up. Their shape encourages water to run-off into the guttering. Even if you’re opting for a different profiled roof sheet, water run-off is still encouraged when compared with more traditional tiles roofing, thanks to the smoother surfaces.

Metal roof sheets are treated or coated with corrosion-resistant coatings, while other roof sheets are manufactured from corrosion-resistant materials. Roof sheets are also often chemically treated, meaning that they are also resistant to the growth of algae and other matter.

Polycarbonate roofing sheets are manufactured from a synthetic resin, which carries several similarities to plastic roof sheets but with added benefits.

Bitumen roofing sheets are manufactured from bitumen fibres – a mixture commonly used in roofing and road surfaces due to its durability.
