Installation Guidance

To ensure the best results, refer to the official Vistalux installation guide and video for detailed instructions. It's essential to select the correct accessories that match the sheet's profile to achieve a secure, weather-tight finish. When planning your project, make sure you calculate how many sheets you'll need. Measure the width of your roof and divide it by the sheet's cover width. For example, with a 3000mm wide roof and a 1016mm cover width, you’ll need approximately 2.95 sheets—so round up to 3 full sheets.

Fixings Requirements

To estimate how many fixings you'll need: Divide the roof width by the fixing centres. Divide the roof length by the support centres and add one. Multiply these two values together to get the total number of fixings. Using the right number and placement of fixings is vital to ensure a strong, weatherproof installation.

10-Year Warranty

Vistalux PVC roof sheets are covered by a 10-year warranty against manufacturing defects in normal weather conditions. If a sheet fails due to a defect within this period, a replacement will be provided free of charge. However, to maintain warranty validity, sheets must be installed and maintained in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions. The warranty does not cover reinstallation or any consequential damage.
