Not bad considering you did yourself. Are you in construction line? I'm thinking of doing awning for the back of my house too. Don't know which one is suitable.

yes.. im in construction field..
i do wood work, plumbing work and anything..
i mean im the worker not boss hahaha...

Are you doing part time on your own? Mind to share the price for such awning at your house?

roughly calculation.. (for item cost me for front awning)
for roof tiles, wood, wallplugs, paint (wood varnish & jotashield white), bla.. bla.. bla... ( nails, sand paper, putty piller and so on...)
cost me around RM1800-RM2000.. honestly

cost for labour - free
cost for installation - free
(since i did it myself hahaha)

usually installation and labour wood work for single storey house around rm1600-rm2000> (may diffrent for 2storey)
(yes.. cost for hacking, cement the gutter, water proofing.. paint back... bla bla bla until finish..)


lololo.. any other patern for wood awning? i came here for review others member awning..

I ask MPK... they say this is not awning... it is considered pergola... need arkitek drawing...

i did mine , roof tiles medium grey in colour, they told me need to paint the roof tiles in the colour i requested....cost me RM 2400....to be honest its quite ok for me the price but the workmanship havent see yet...this weekend they put it up....talking bout design it was normal roof like my father had 10 years ago....kindda curious is there any modern design, pergolas yes it kinda modern, but roof tiles i think its all about the same..slanting type....if possible i will post some pic here after they finish the job....we see how the workmanship

i am considering doing polycarbonate awning...still donno which type of material used for frame..balau,resak or metal steel?

bro.. this is awning.. pergola dont have roof.. pergola usually build for plant (flower) to grow and cover that pergola. err.. no need architect drawing.. hehehe... carpenter (like me) can make it...

example large pergolas found from google...



thanks please post some pic for review.


polycarbonate not so heavy... why dont use wraught iron for frame? with iron flower it will be great.

My whole house is using polycarbonate. Noisy when raining.

So what is the best solution other than roof tiles?

Tempered Glass

As weikee said, tempered glass.

Soooo Kawwww Leeee Haiiii !!!

That is why till now i did not put parking porch awing yet. Wait till I save enough bullets.

if any good contractor pls recommend....im thinking to do mine as well...coz when its rain i have my autogate but miserable my car porch design from developer only cover my car ass (as i reverse park ) so why i still wet when having autogate....ermmm this is why,

Walau few rain drop won't harm you lah.

My car porch same as you. Half cover but without autogate. Rain not heavy , I just go down and open gate. After that have a hot bath.

wah...tempered glass ar...i also love to but the price is more than double of polycarbonate...i need to do 372 sq ft awning and polycarbonate already cost me RM9k++......if tempered glass, i think i need to spend more than 30k....

haha.....me ok bro....but datin keep on mumbling...u know la tropic country....

Mine front will be 6 x 22, than my daughter and spare room maybe 4 x 4 x 2, and front first floor exit to front balcony 4 x 4, and my big master bedroom will be 12 x 4. That will sum up to about 228 Sqft

If RM 65 per sqft, that will be come ~ RM 15k

I need to rob a bank.
