What is alucobond roof? O o

Something like two piece aluminum sheet sandwiching a core. The core can be plastic, mineral-filled material, etc. Can see on those building with aluminum finish or metal look (not Petronas tower I think, different material)

does the area below it very heat?

I'm interested...but how much roughly the cost? say extension like 18X10ft....

Oh.. You mean its meant to block light? haha. not like the pictures he showed?

You can google for picture .. many sample there.

Haha ok. lol

Actually alucobond is just a shortform for " Aluminium Composite Panel" ,this is a new material for roofing to get protect by direct sunlight and also its a sound prove material .

i pm you the price already ...bro

Glass + Metal = expensive and hot, glass can be clean easily if dirty
Polycarbonate = cheap and better heat absorption but look cheap and will become dirty after long time
Alu + panel = very expensive and better heat absorption

At the end, it is about your budget bro.
I use glass + metal for my indoor garden concept.
12ft x 10ft = RM4k+

actually i got new design for the mix roof , we can mix the glass and alucobond panel together and you put wherever the place u wan to cover from the sunlight by alucobond and wherever you wan let the sunlight come thru the glass .

kalo kace mcm tu kene rajin cuci la tu je...

Alucobond is the brand for Aluminum Composite Panels, same goes to Seven, MBond, Alubond, Everise and more.

I'm using ACP panels for my porch. Quieter during rain, shady during Sun.

Previously using Polycarbonate Hollow panels and they start cracking and leaking after 8 years and of course, my contractor back then did a shitty job installing it in the wrong manner.

Bro, Aluminium Composite Panel in the market already more than 30 yrs

ya... but for malaysia here, we just start using it to become roofing since last 2/3 years, and last year Mbond only got this product...

actually we always recommend to our customer use the 3mm solid polycarbonate instead of 6mm hollow polycarbonate , the hollow one dint provided warranty for cracking but the solid one provided 10 years warranty .

Bro mind sharing the contractor and your quote?

How do you install 10 feet in length? As in the full length or the metal + glass?

TQ

Aluminium composite panel is not structural sound design roof, not like the normal metal roofing sheet. Aluminium composite roof can only act like the seaming roof you can see at the LRT extension station, underneath the arming roof still have a layer of metal roofing.

What is the estimated price for 18 ft x 5ft extension roof??

No.
Breakdown into 3x6 (6 pieces).
I using Indon worker if you don't mind.

Hi. Can PM the contact as well. Need someone to touch-up my glass installation

well, for porch or sunlight roof i think it's fine to use it as a replacement for polycarbonate

are you using Marklon Poly carbonate sheets ? and Mbond ACP?

I'm interested in making roof for my upstair of the porch. What is the recommendation? Will ACP a good choice?

The only issue with the polycarbonate is the noise level, when it's raining, the noise is really annoying, especially when it's raining hard. Depends on the acceptable noise level of each and every houseowner tho

May i know your Width ? because its quote by square foot

Assume that , your car porch

Width = 22ft , Length = 10ft

22' x 10' = 220sf
Glass + medal price per sf= RM46

220sf x RM46 = RM10,120

May i know what roof material u prefer to use? cause the price is quite big different.

normally we will provided Marklon 3mm solid polycarbonate but some of our clients are looking for more budget material then we will propose them to use recycle polycarbonate such as Sunlite polycarbonate.

For the ACP , we also have few brands, Mbond is one of our supplier too.

actually its depends on what design you wan and what purpose you make the roof on the upstair such as balcony .
If using ACP , then ur porch will become darker but you wont feel so hot during the hot weather and wont be so noisy during the raining session . Maybe you can install the lamp/light under the roof or fan as well under the roof.

I'm trying to turn my porch roof to become balcony that access from my master bedroom. It is a huge area...i think I'm looking at 22ft wide x 20ft long. It seems it will make my balcony very very dark.... And expensive too? What is your suggestion?

Depend on what your budget is and your design you want

Plan to extend a little bit my porch...can anybody quote for 20x4 glass/poly/etc...was quoted RM4.4K for glass..

Maybe you can choose either glass or polycarbonate roofing , for the glass one , the sunlight can directly go through the glass , so the natural sunlight will make ur balcony wont so darker, and polycarbonate also have some series that the sunlight can goes through. Actually its all about the budget problem only .

for the glass one , 80sf x RM46 = RM3680

Looking to extend my kitchen with Metal decking just like the picture. Needs to include sound insulation and water duck

My measurement is 22x7ft.

It is basically following the 2nd picture.

Anybody knows a good contractor to do it and how much will it cost?

What's the thickness and material? Normal glass or tempered bro?

Budget I haven decide, as I'm trying to figuring out how much will the roof cost me. So I guess I will find out all the pricing for the same extension and compare myself....

the design that u posted. dont need column to support? the hanging type whats the max length and width it can support? if width 24ft and length(from building) is 12ft. can do this hanging type? or need column to support?

Hi, which brand are you using? The price you quote is it, was it for sunlite or ACP?

May I know which brand is better? I was quoted RM45 / sqft for sunlite polycarbonate.. Is it overprice?

Hi Guys, any recommendation on timber pergola contractor?

Mine about 48/sq.ft ( 5 months ago) , with 4 mm thick polycarbonate and all stainless steel frame

the column actually is a design only , you can either pergola style or the column framworks.
For sure u can do the hanging style for 12ft length .

the price quoted is for 10.38mm laminated glass

ya .. over price already , if sunlite polycarbonate RM20-24

The price he quoted are using T-Beam.. Will it be more expensive because of that?
Also, what is the difference between T-Beam & hollow section?

if they quoted t-beam for u mean its not polycarbonate , the roof material should be glass, RM45 -50 market price .

For the Hollow section and T-Beam we also quoted same price. ( glass )

my contractor also offered me sunlite polycarbonate. Is this a good brand? Why? He quoted me for 3600 for 23' x 5'. With aluminium outer steel frame and powder coating inner metal frame

sunlite polycarbonate is a recycle brand for polycarbonate sheet , but they also provided 10 years warranty for the product warranty. Price is around RM22 per sqft , ur contractor charged the aluminium outer and powder coating , thats why ur price will abit higher .

May I know what material is it? How much? The picture shows top, side and bottom.

I believe is aluminium with foam inside. I had something similar install for my car porch ceiling. Is good material but need someone skilful to do it. The last I got it done by some inexperienced guy, the end result is bad.

How much and what's the consequences of the bad result? I am considering this for my backyard extension roof.

Cost 5k. For area of 500sq feet. The bad result in installing, it makes the corner joint very uneven. The down light hole was cut badly and cannot cover properly after install downlight. The joint also look ugly because of bad workmanship

That's around RM10/sqft, that's cheaper than polycarbonate?

The 2 type give different result. Can't compare.

Polycarbonate is transparent, hot and noisy when rain.

Aluminium with inject foam is not transparent (your sheet area will be dark), insulated from heat and not noisy when rain.

Considering for backyard which will be extended as wet kitchen, this Aluminium with inject foam material seems to be cheaper and more suitable.

I think I got discount that is why is cheaper. Anyway that company who do for me had disappeared

Asked few contractors, all haven't use this material before. They said normally just one layer. Then got a contractor recommend aluminium composite panel instead.

The foam inside is for keep out the heat. I will say is good material but my case is just got the wrong company

Can pm me the price for alumbond for 28×10ft?

I wanna install a roofing at my backyard, i wanna maximize as much as light as possible and if possibly minimize heat as well. Which materials are good and lower cost? Is polycarbonate good? I need the awning as least 7-8 feet, is it need a pillar to support?

My rooftop using poly. Combined with balcony using concrete and tempered glass. Cost me rm11k for all.

Why don't you use all glass? It will be perfect nice.

out of budget bro...will be almost 20k if use all glass..have to spend for other renovation parts of the house.

Another 9k, maggi mee lor.

That poly roof doesn't look nice to your house. Beside it freaking noisy when rain with such a big poly roof.

Tempered glass balcony, how much? by per sqft or per ft run?

actually the material u mentioned not aluminium , its zinc sheet .

Its show two layer because one layer zinc will be noisy and warmer than polycarbonate , so we laminated two layer to insulated the heat and sound prof .

Anywhere , u all can PM me for more information , im also a contractor for Auto Gate , Grill and Awning .

i think your balcony glass railing and poly roofing is over costing , for the tempered glass railing market price around Rm100 per foot run only , and polycarbonate from RM18-24 only.

are u interest on the glass railing ? I can quote for u ...

For the glass railing without stainless steel cap , RM100 per foot run .

pls include cost for concrete as well on both sides.

actually the cutting for the roof is customized, not straight..have to follow the shape of the house.

Where is your location? Quote me for Aluminium Composite Panel 22x4.

I don't know what to use, need expert to suggest
Any care to share good contractor who can quote and advise

it has been 4 months after your post, have you done it?

is it legally allowed to install roof on balcony above porch? I'm thinking of doing mine too. Now thinking about regularity.

Can anyone share how much is the price for polycarbonate per square foot?
Possible provide prices for different thickness, 3mm , 12mm.

hello sorry to bump an old thread, i just wanna ask, is the noise level low enough? i plan to use this for my single storey house cos of budget.

I can't tell because the part I did is for car porch which is concrete roof. The aluminium is just to cover the ceiling from below.

ah ok, i will try to ask Mr. Tan and see, now facing a big challenge to replace RC type roofs. Thanks a lot!

Anyway, the one I got the company is really lousy. Just be careful when you look out for one

same roofer as Mr. Tan you gave the number to me (another thread)? if yes then i cancel with him haha

Mr Tan is ok but I am saying the one I got for the aluminium was bad

maybe u can try on our service , we will provide the solution for the roofing...

Dear Sonylsp:

Please PM best price for polycarbonate (3MM) pergola metal for following 18x15 and 18x5.

Any price difference between normal type versus pergola type? If yes, give me for normal type as well.

you can PM me for 5' X 22' for any type of material that light can pass through. I need roofing for entire house as well lolz

Same price for pergola and other frameworks , please check your inbox for the pricing...

for the sunlight roofing , i will recommend you either polycarbonate or sunlight glasses only... please check your inbox for the pricing details..
thanks.

may i know what is the price per square feet of aluminium panel composite? i overheard that those with polycarbonate will crack after 2 years and the water will leak.. coz if build concrete slab for car porch will caused 20k..

any good recommendation for do not want sun through n not noisy other than slab concrete?

Dear Sonylsp,

Didn't receive your pm in my inbox, can you please resend?
Another question, for recycle poly carbonate such as sunlite, any difference compare to non recycle type?

Can I ask if a technician can stand to service air-con compressor on a 1.25" x 1.25" steel rod supported polycarbonate roof?

Normally 3mm solid polycarbonate provided 10 years warranty and water leaking normally is the problem on silicone .

Aluminium panel composite also have few types , different thickness .

I will drop you a quote soonest .

please check your inbox .

Thanks.

technically they can stand on the roof to service air-con compressor but we will suggest they use a temporary support such as temporary pillar to support them .

im looking to do awning as well. can u pm me contact?
