FAQ

Frequently asked questions.

Can't find your question? Just leave us a note in the configurator or give us a call.

Do I need exact measurements for an enquiry?

No. Approximate measurements are perfectly sufficient for the initial project review. If you don't know the measurements, just say so in the configurator. We always measure ourselves before final planning.

Can I send photos instead of technical drawings?

Yes, please do. Photos from the front, from the side and of the connection to the house wall help us most. Sketches or floor plans are optional.

Do you work throughout Germany?

We are based in the Rhine-Main region, but we also carry out projects in other parts of Germany. Simply send us your enquiry with your location.

Can an existing roof or awning be replaced?

Yes. Upload photos of the existing system in the configurator and give us the approximate measurements. We will check what can be replaced or reused.

How does the quotation process work?

You describe your project in the configurator and upload photos. We review your details, select suitable systems and materials and prepare an individual quotation. We then discuss it with you personally.

How much does a terrace roof cost?

That depends on size, roofing, colour, mounting type and extras. That is why we don't offer a flat-rate calculator but prepare an individual quotation based on your details.

Can I add glass sliding walls later?

In many cases, yes. We check whether your existing roof is suitable based on photos and measurements.

Which roofing options are available?

We offer clear glass, opal glass and polycarbonate, as well as rotating aluminium louvres for louvred roofs. Each option has its own advantages in terms of light, heat and price. We are happy to advise you.

Which colours are available?

Anthracite (RAL 7016), black and white are standard. Other RAL colours are available on request.

Do you also handle installation?

Yes. Planning, manufacturing, delivery and installation all come from one source.

Who manufactures the systems?

We take measurements on site and plan your project. Everything is made to measure by selected partners in Germany and Europe and installed by our own team. Production only starts after we have presented the design to you in the desired dimensions, so you have one point of contact from start to finish.

How quickly will I receive the official documents?

After your order has been confirmed, we guarantee that all official documents will be completed within 20 working days.

What is a bioclimatic louvred roof?

A roof made of rotating aluminium louvres. Slightly open, it provides shade and air circulation; fully open, it lets the sun in; closed, it protects against rain. Water drains away invisibly through the posts.

What is a ZIP screen?

A vertical sun screen whose fabric runs in zip guides at the sides. This keeps it taut even in the wind and protects against sun, prying eyes and insects. Our ZIP screens can be controlled automatically.

Can my ground support a roof?

We check this during the on-site measurement. Depending on the ground and the structural requirements, we plan suitable foundations and, where needed, use a galvanised or stainless steel substructure.

How long does installation take?

That depends on the scope of the project. A typical terrace roof can often be installed quickly; larger projects take correspondingly longer. We will go through the exact schedule with you in the quotation.

Do I need planning permission?

This varies depending on the federal state, municipality and size. Please check with your local building authority. We are happy to support you with the necessary project documents.
