Corrugated roofing is a classic roofing material made from metal sheets that are formed into a repeating wave-like pattern. This profile gives the sheets significant strength while remaining lightweight. It is a highly practical, durable, and cost-effective solution for a variety of roofing projects.
The key benefits are its strength-to-weight ratio, durability, and affordability. Corrugated sheets are lightweight and easy to handle, yet the profile makes them very strong and rigid. They are quick to install, long-lasting, and offer one of the best value-for-money roofing solutions available.
It is an extremely versatile material, traditionally used for functional buildings such as:
Garages, sheds, and workshops
Agricultural buildings like barns, stables, and animal shelters
Carports and log stores
Industrial units and storage facilities
Cladding for a rustic or industrial aesthetic
Our corrugated sheets are made from high-quality galvanised steel, which is then finished with a durable, weather-resistant coating. This multi-layer construction protects the steel from rust and corrosion, ensuring a long service life.
A professionally installed corrugated steel roof can be expected to last for 20 to 30 years. The robust material and protective coatings are designed to withstand years of exposure to the UK's weather.
Yes. When installed correctly with the proper overlaps and secure fixings, a corrugated roof provides an excellent weatherproof barrier. The 'wave' profile is designed to channel water away efficiently, preventing leaks.
A simple installation on an open-sided structure like a carport will be noisier than other roof types. However, for enclosed buildings like workshops or garages, the noise can be significantly reduced by installing the sheets over a solid roof deck and using an appropriate underlayment.
The sheets are protected by a galvanised layer and a tough, polyester paint finish. Galvanisation provides excellent protection against rust. The paint finish is UV-stable, meaning it is designed to hold its colour well with minimal fading over its lifespan.
We offer a range of practical and traditional colours for our corrugated sheets, including classic Juniper Green, Black, and Anthracite Grey, to suit a variety of agricultural and domestic settings.
Yes. To ensure a professional and fully weatherproof finish, we supply a full range of colour-matched components, including ridges, bargeboards (for verges), and screw caps. This creates a neat and cohesive look.
Yes, corrugated sheets are very popular for wall cladding, especially for creating a rustic, agricultural, or modern industrial look. They can be installed either horizontally or vertically to great effect.
Yes. We can supply GRP (Glass Reinforced Plastic) rooflights with the same corrugated profile. These can be integrated into the roof to allow natural daylight into the building, which is ideal for workshops, stables, or storage barns.
The sheets are laid onto a framework of roof purlins (horizontal supports). They are fixed into place using specialist, self-drilling screws that are driven through the 'peak' of the corrugation. The sheets are overlapped by at least one corrugation to ensure a watertight seal.
Your roof will be installed by the skilled, directly employed teams at Outdoor Makeover Group. Our fitters have extensive experience in installing metal roofing systems, ensuring a secure and professional result.
For simple structures like carports, an underlay may not be necessary. However, for enclosed buildings, we often recommend an anti-condensation membrane or a full roof deck and underlayment to control moisture and prevent condensation from dripping into the space below.
Installation is very fast. The sheets are lightweight and cover a large area, which speeds up the process considerably compared to other roofing types. A standard garage roof can often be completed in a single day.
Corrugated roofing is very low-maintenance. The durable finish does not require any regular treatment. A simple annual check to clear leaves from gutters and drains is usually all that is needed.
Steel is a highly recyclable material. At the end of its very long life, a corrugated steel roof can be fully recycled, making it a sustainable choice compared to materials that end up in landfill.
It is one of the most cost-effective and economical roofing materials available, particularly for functional buildings. The combination of low material cost, rapid installation, and a long, maintenance-free lifespan provides unbeatable value.
