Factory Direct Patio Savings
We custom design every patio to meet your requirements and achieve your patio design goals. We fabricate your new patio in the Welshpool Patio Factory using Bluescope® Steel and offer a wide range of Colorbond® colour choices including custom colour matching on request.
Insulated Patio Roofing
There are many patio styles and roofing options to consider including the Cooldek® insulated patio roofing system and also the SolarSpan® insulated roofing panels.
Sky Lights
For sky lights, we recommend the SUNTUF® polycarbonate roof panels that come with a 10 year warranty and your choice of colour tints. The SUNTUF® SolarSmart panels are transparent and allow 90% light transmission while blocking 99.9% of harmful UV light rays.
SUNTUF Polycarbonate Roofing Features
The Suntuf Polycarbonate range is available in 3 great styles – Standard, SolarSmart and SolarSmart Selective. SolarSmart reflects more heat across the entire ultraviolet light spectrum, not just the portion that provides visible light. All Suntuf Polycarbonate products give 99.9% UV protection under the harsh Australian sun.
