What pushes a flyover quote up

  • Insulated panels instead of single-skin steel.
  • Engineering and brackets sized for your wind classification and roof framing.
  • Roof condition. Old tiles or battens may need repair where brackets go through.
  • Height and access. Work at roof level needs edge protection and more labour.
  • Gable-style flyovers and decorative infills.

How to compare flyover quotes

  • Same roof area, panel type and thickness across quotes.
  • Bracket system and who engineered the roof connection.
  • Whether roof repairs, flashing, gutters and downpipes are included.
  • Certifier and engineering fees included or extra.
