Replace Pergola Polycarbonate Roofing (1 sheet)

$5

Harrison ACT 2914澳大利亚

21st Aug 2025

Hi, I need help replacing one broken piece of polycarbonate roofing on my pergola. Details: Only 1 sheet needs replacing. I will provide the polycarbonate sheet and roofing screws. You will need to bring all the required tools (e.g. high ladder, scissors to cut the sheet, ruler, drill, screwdriver, etc.). What needs to be done: 1. Remove the old sheet. 2. Unscrew and remove the old screws. 3. Cut new sheet to size (if needed). 4. Fit the new sheet. 5. Secure with new screws. Note: One piece of timber on the pergola is a bit rotten, which makes it hard to screw into. I’ll need your advice on how to secure the new roofing sheet without replacing the whole timber beam. You might need to attach a small piece of timber to it, or suggest another way to fix it properly. Location: Harrison, ACT When: Ideally Sunday afternoon after 4pm, or Saturday if the roofing sheet arrives in time. Payment: Please let me know how much you charge.
