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:
UV Degradation
Years of sun exposure can leave the sheets discoloured, brittle, and far less effective.
Physical Damage
Hail, falling branches, or debris can crack or puncture the material.
Wear and Tear
Ongoing exposure to rain, wind, and heat gradually weakens the roof, causing leaks or poor insulation.
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.

What Our Clients Say
Frequently Asked Questions
What is polycarbonate roofing?
Polycarbonate roofing is a lightweight yet strong plastic sheet commonly used for patios, pergolas, carports, and commercial spaces. It allows natural light to pass through while blocking harmful UV rays, making it both practical and stylish.
How long does a polycarbonate roof last?
With quality installation and proper care, a polycarbonate roof typically lasts 15–20 years. Its durability depends on the grade of the sheet, exposure to sun and weather, and regular maintenance.
Can polycarbonate roofing reduce heat inside my home?
Yes. Modern polycarbonate sheets are designed with heat-reducing tints and coatings that lower heat transfer. This helps keep indoor and outdoor spaces cooler during Melbourne’s hot summers while still allowing light in.

Absolutely. At Roof Guard Roofing, we provide both installation and polycarbonate roof repairs in Melbourne. Whether your sheets are cracked, faded, or leaking, we can restore their function and appearance.
