Remove the inner support beam and panel After removing the outer panels, unscrew and remove the inner support beam from the rafters. Gently slide each inner polycarbonate panel out of its position, not cracking or damaging the material.

Secure the panel with fasteners, aligning it carefully for a tight fit. Continue installing subsequent panels from left to right across each roof side, ensuring each panel overlaps correctly with the previous one for optimal stability and weather resistance.

They are easy to install, making them ideal for DIY projects. For enhanced durability, our steel roof replacements are made from weather-resistant, 0.5 mm galvanized steel, providing superior stability and protection against the elements, making them perfect for year-round use.

Note on roof replacements
When replacing your gazebo roof, you must use the same type as the original garden gazebo. For example, a hard-top gazebo cannot be replaced with a soft-top roof. However, you can change the colour, opting for a champagne roof instead of a stone one.

While our gazebo roofing options are durable and made of high-quality materials, this doesn't mean you should subject them to poor treatment. Maintaining your gazebo roofs is essential to their longevity. Here are some tips and tricks to consider for each roofing option!
Cleaning Use a mixture of mild liquid soap and lukewarm water. Avoid abrasive chemicals that can strip the protective coating. Clean with a soft sponge or microfiber cloth to gently remove dirt and grime.
Debris Removal Regularly remove large debris, such as leaves and sticks, using a soft broom or leaf blower. Be gentle to prevent scratching the panels.
Inspection Check gutters for blockages to prevent water buildup and potential damage. Clean at least once a year, more frequently if your roof is under trees.
Cleaning Clean with a mild detergent and water solution. Use a soft brush to scrub gently and rinse thoroughly.
Seasonal Maintenance Remove the canvas during extreme weather conditions, such as heavy snow or storms, to prevent damage.
Storage When not in use, store the roof in a cool, dry place to avoid mildew and prolong its lifespan. For storage solutions, check out our garden storage boxes or garden sheds!
Cleaning Use a soft brush and soapy water to clean dirt and debris. Avoid harsh chemicals that can damage the galvanization.
Rust prevention Inspect for signs of rust regularly. Apply a rust inhibitor or touch-up paint as needed to protect exposed areas.
Secure Fastenings Check and tighten all screws and bolts to ensure the roof remains secure, especially after severe weather.
