Browse Forums General Discussion 1 Oct 18, 2016 11:15 pm I am planning an extension to the back of my house that requires the roof to be at a pitch of 5 degrees however there is a legal covenant on my property that does not permit the use of corrugated iron. I'm not sure if 'corrugated' would includes alternatives like trimdek or Kliplok. Does anyone know of any other options other that an iron roof that would support a 5 degree pitch? I'm looking for something suitable for a family room in a house. I don't see clear or semi clear fiberglass as s suitable option. Also, It is a 90 year old period style house. Colourbond would have been perfect. Thanks for any suggestions.
