1.
Remove & Replace

2.
Metal Overclad
Opt for minimal disruption by leaving the existing roof in place and applying a new layer of metal sheets on top. However, it’s important to note that traditional solar solutions may not be feasible due to weight considerations.
3.
Overclad with Solar
Innovate with award-winning, fully watertight solar modules as a second skin for your roof. Installing solar panels in this way provides a durable roofing solution, but it also leverages energy savings to offset the cost of your new roof.
Why Choose Solar Cladding?
Traditional overcladding involves adding a new layer of metal sheeting over your existing roof, sealing it from the elements and ensuring it’s watertight. Solfit Solar claddings transforms this process with a groundbreaking approach. Instead of using standard metal for the second layer, Sunlite employs Tier 1 solar modules, creating a solar-powered roof that not only protects your property but also generates energy.
This innovative method means that what used to be an unwelcome expense for commercial roof repairs can now become a source of return for your business. the technology is versatile, compatible with various roofing materials including asbestos, fibre cement, and metal. With Sunlite, your roof repair isn’t just a cost—it’s an investment into your business’s future, turning sunlight into savings.
