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 .

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.
*
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
*
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

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

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

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 .

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.
*
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 .

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