Roofs

Take control of the weather
over your outdoor room,
whatever it is doing

A roof is what turns an outdoor area into a room you use. Three ways to do it, each suited to a different home and a different site.

Your outdoor space is
at the mercy of the forecast.

Does any of this sound familiar?

  • Rain cancels the plan at short notice
  • Midday sun makes the space unusable
  • Furniture weathers and fades
  • The area becomes storage rather than living space

Every one of those is fixable. It starts with getting the right cover overhead, designed for your space rather than pulled off a shelf.

Here is how that turns out

The whole process from quote to installation was seamless. We are now enjoying the extra living space that we have gained from adding a flat roof to our deck area.

Choose your direction

Three ways to cover
your space.

Your local expert walks the space and recommends the one that suits your home, your site, and your budget.

04

Not all are built the same

Why the quality of the roof decides everything below it

The roof carries the load, manages the water, and sets the line of the whole space. It is also the part that is hardest to put right later.

Under-specified framing moves. Unrated finishes chalk in coastal air.

Drainage that was an afterthought discharges down your wall. Everything else in the outdoor room depends on the roof being right first.

Our position

We choose quality over price. Your investment deserves a roof specified for your site, installed by the team that designed the space.

What roofs customers say

Verified Google reviews from completed projects across the North Island.

This is why we wanted the Outback roof over our existing deck - a combination of solid cover plus light access in winter and shade in summer. It works - beautifully. Plus it's rated for the high wind zone area we live in. Suddenly our part-time-usable deck became 24 x7 usable.
Des DromgoolWaikato
Our outdoor area looks awesome now with a roof from Outdoor Room Company. David and team were ahead of schedule and completed everything to our requirements with a great quality and friendly professionalism. Very happy with the final product.
Jason and Sarah Pope

Before you choose

There are two real risks when you add to your outdoor space.

Risk 01

Quality of materials

Some companies shortcut the materials and the finish to protect their margin. It looks the same in the brochure and on install day.

Three winters later, on an exposed New Zealand site, the difference is obvious. You do not discover it until the warranty conversation, and by then the cost tends to land with you.

Risk 02

Quality of install

Contracted assemblers, a sales team that never speaks to the installers, and work done to a schedule rather than to the house. Products installed in isolation from the rest of the space leave gaps, mismatched lines, and drainage that discharges where it should not.

One accountable team, from design through to install, avoids every one of those.
