A little closer to outside

Shelter overhead.
Daylight in the picture.

Breakfast on the deck. Friends around the table. A place to stay a little longer.

Keep daylight coming through the roof while creating a covered place to eat, gather and unwind. Our acrylic roofing blocks 99% of UV light. Choose a clear view of the sky, a grey tint or the soft, diffused light of opal.

Roof proportions, frame and post positions are designed around the house. We resolve the connection, flashings and drainage together, then confirm the materials and installation in your proposal.

02 / Find your light

Four tints.
A different feeling.

Start with the view and daylight you want. Then consider the sun, your roof area and the windows behind it.

Compare acrylic tints
Transparent. See the sky above.

Clear acrylic

Transparent with the clearest view of the sky.

Daylight
Usually the highest relative daylight of these options.
Consider
Direct sun, glare, roof depth and nearby windows.
A light tint. The sky remains visible.

Light grey acrylic

A subtle tint that remains visually open.

Daylight
Usually retains more daylight than a darker tint.
Consider
Sun timing, house colour and existing shade.
A darker tint. Less daylight through.

Dark grey acrylic

A darker roof with a stronger shaded character.

Daylight
Allows less daylight through than clear or light grey.
Consider
Nearby rooms, roof area and overcast conditions.
Diffused light. No clear view through.

Opal acrylic

Diffused light without a clear view through the roof.

Daylight
Creates softer, more even light, subject to the product.
Consider
Sky-view priorities, orientation and adjoining windows.

Same-scene illustrations, not project photos or measured light transmission. They show the difference between transparent tints and translucent opal. Confirm colour and daylight with current product samples at your site.

Acrylic can also be part of a mixed roof. At Warkworth, clear acrylic roof and gable glazing sit alongside solid roofing and cedar lining.

We plan the materials, junctions and drainage together. The right balance depends on your home and the space below.

The details, when you need them

Acrylic pergola
questions.

Are acrylic roof pergolas waterproof?

Rain management depends on the exact roof, pitch, joints, flashings, drainage and installation. Wind-driven rain can enter through open sides, so any blind or infill needs to be planned with the roof.

Will an acrylic pergola make my house dark?

It depends on the tint, roof area, depth, orientation and nearby windows. Review the effect from inside the adjoining rooms.

Which acrylic tint should I choose?

Consider the site, sun path, adjoining rooms, roof area and intended use alongside the sample colour.

Can acrylic be combined with a solid roof?

Yes, where the selected systems and design permit it. The junction and drainage must be resolved as one roof.

What affects shade and comfort?

The roof product is one part of the picture. We consider:

  • Orientation and sun path
  • Acrylic tint and roof area
  • Adjoining windows and rooms
  • Air movement through open sides
  • Low-angle sun at the edges
  • Seating position and intended use
How are the roof and house connection planned?

Roof and drainage

Coordinate the selected roofing, fall, joints, gutters, outlets and discharge.

House connection

Support, cladding, clearances and flashings depend on the existing building.

Open edges

Wind-driven rain can enter through open sides. Plan any blind or infill as part of the design.

What should my proposal confirm?

Your proposal identifies the exact fixed-roof assembly, including the product, thickness, tint and current limitations.

It also confirms the frame, fall, joints, flashings, gutters and outlets, with current care and warranty information for the selected products. Consent depends on the final design and property. We’ll identify the checks needed for your project.
