6 Things to Know Before You Buy

#	Limitation	What to Do About It
1	Scratches more easily than glass	Polycarbonate is softer than glass. Avoid dragging tools or sharp objects across the surface during and after installation.
2	Needs a minimum 5 degree roof pitch	Laserlite 2000 requires at least a 5-degree slope so rainwater drains off properly. Flat roofs are not suitable.
3	Can expand and contract in heat	Like most plastics, polycarbonate sheets expand slightly in hot weather. Leave correct spacing gaps at fixings to avoid buckling.
4	Not suitable for very steep pitches without advice	Steep roof angles may need special fixing methods. Always check the Laserlite installation guide or ask a professional.
5	Light transmission varies by colour	Grey Tint only lets in 19% of light. If your space needs natural brightness, choose Clear or Opal instead.
6	Requires compatible sealants and accessories	Using the wrong sealants or fixings can void the warranty and cause leaks. Always use Laserlite-approved accessories.

5. How long do polycarbonate roofing sheets last?

With proper installation and care, a quality polycarbonate sheet like Laserlite 2000 can last 10 to 15 years or more. The UV-resistant coating helps prevent yellowing and brittleness over time.

6. Can I cut polycarbonate sheet to size myself?

Yes. Polycarbonate sheet can be cut with a circular saw, jigsaw, or fine-toothed hand saw. Always cut slowly and wear safety glasses. Measure twice before cutting to avoid waste.

7. What is the minimum roof pitch for Laserlite 2000?

The minimum roof pitch is 5 degrees. This allows rainwater to drain off the sheet naturally. If your roof is flatter than this, polycarbonate roofing is not recommended without professional advice.
