Front Porch Awning.
Main Concern : Durability.
Secondary Concern : Modern vs. Older Design
- Am sharing the cost of the awning with my mom. (My mom is living in the house, I am living outside at the moment. The house is my family's house, but I still want the house to be maintained.) I also recently got the house painted and small renovation to the front. Home is painted White and Gray exterior.
Issue :
- Me thinking to choose ACP (aluminium composite panel), because it looks more modern. And I heard ACP is durable, and won't crack/leak so easily in few years (unlike Polycarbonate).
- Mother thinking to choose old-school Roof Tiles (like the ones on most houses roof) , because she still thinks Roof Tiles last longer.
The only thing we both can agree on is we won't choose Polycarbonate, because it will crack/leak in a few years. Although Polycarbonate will have more light shine through.
In dilemma.... Should we go for Old-School Roof Tiles, or ACP awning?
Is Old-School Roof Tiles more durable than ACP ?
Both got pros and cons. But since your main concern is durability, tiles roof is the best option. Main Concern : Durability.

But for my personal choice due to visual/aesthetic, I will use ACP or tempered glass if your house is one of those modern ones (built from 2012 onwards) with minimal roof overhang and concrete slab roof porch. If those older design house, then I will use roof tiles. Even roof tiles there is so many choices (clay, concrete, painted/unpainted)
