Get Roofing QuotesWhen You Need Roof Sheeting
- New garage or carport. IBR is a common, affordable choice.
- Home extension. Sheeting to match or complement the existing roof.
- Swapping an old roof covering. Replacing worn sheets or another covering with new metal sheets.
- Patios and outbuildings. Light structures that cannot carry heavy tiles.
Materials and Methods
- IBR. The most common profile. Thicker 0.5 mm sheets resist dents and hail better than 0.4 mm.
- Corrugated. A traditional profile, often used on older homes and outbuildings.
- Klip-Lok and concealed-fix. No exposed screws, so fewer leak points on low-pitch roofs.
- Insulated sheeting. Panels with a built-in insulation layer for cooler rooms in summer.
- Coatings. Galvanised, zinc-aluminium or pre-painted Chromadek finishes.
What the Work Includes
- Structure check. Purlins and trusses spaced and fixed to suit the sheet profile.
- Fixing. Sheets fixed with the right fasteners, laps sealed.
- Flashings and ridges. Cappings, side flashings and wall flashings fitted.
- Pitch. Each profile has a minimum pitch. Ask the contractor to confirm yours suits it.

Roof Sheeting Installation FAQs
Is 0.4 mm or 0.5 mm IBR better?
0.5 mm is stronger and resists dents and hail better. 0.4 mm is cheaper and fine for many garages and outbuildings.
Is Klip-Lok worth the extra cost?
On low-pitch roofs or where leaks at screws are a worry, the concealed fixing is a real advantage.
Does metal sheeting make the house hot?
Uninsulated sheeting can. Insulated sheeting or insulation under the roof keeps rooms much cooler.
How much does a 60 m² IBR extension roof cost?
About R21,000 - R39,000 installed, depending on sheet thickness, coating and access.
