Skillion Roof Carports

Skillion roof carports offer a sleek and minimalistic appearance that suits modern homes. They are also easier to assemble compared to other carport designs.

A skillion carport kit can provide cover for 1 or more cars and is ideal for a boat or caravan. The roof has a small angle or ‘pitch’ to allow water run-off.

Space Efficiency

A skillion carport offers several advantages that can make it a valuable addition to any property. These include: space efficiency, convenient water runoff, and a sleek appearance that can complement a contemporary architectural style. The roof also allows for solar panel placement, which is ideal for Australian climate conditions.

Skillion roof carports are designed with a small angle or ‘pitch’ of 2 degrees. This is because a “flat roof” does not exist; in order for rainwater to flow off the steel carport’s roof sheet, it must have a small angle or pitch.

The roof’s fall also determines which side the gutter is on – left to right, back to front or front to back. This is important for working out how high to construct the carport from the ground to avoid standing water or flooding the area below the structure. Our expert team can assist you with this to ensure the design works best for your needs.

Convenience

A skillion roof carport offers a great balance between aesthetics, functionality, and affordability. The angled slopes of this design allow for more roof space in a smaller area, making it a perfect fit for homes with limited backyard space. It also allows air to flow through the structure, which is important for keeping your vehicle protected from harsh weather conditions.

Additionally, a skillion carport can be built as a standalone structure or attached to the house, which gives you more options for how you want to use it. For example, you can use it as a garden patio or shaded entranceway to the home.

Finally, a skillion carport is usually cheaper than other types of carport designs. This is largely because they require less material, which saves on installation costs. Plus, they can be made using durable materials like galvanised frames and Zincalume steel sheets. Professional Choice even has a budget option called the Lysaght Lite carport kit that is affordable but not as strong as our Custom or Spandek profiles (which look a bit like corrugated iron). Our skillion roof carports are available in a range of Colorbond colors, which can be used to compliment or contrast with the color of your home.

Durability

Skillion carports have a single sloped roof design and are sturdy structures that can stand on their own or be attached to your home. They’re a cost-effective choice for protecting your cars, boats or caravans. They’re also ideal for outdoor workshop and garden sheds.

A single-sloped roof means water drains quickly and efficiently, and a COLORBOND® or galvanised steel finish will protect your structure from harsh Australian weather. They’re an affordable option, too – their straightforward design reduces the amount of material needed to build them.

With a flat roof, your carport is easy to install and can be built on an existing slab. If you want a more contemporary look, you can choose the modern and sleek option of a double carport that will accommodate two vehicles side-by-side or, if space is limited, back to back. This is an ideal solution for family homes with limited garage space. For an even more aesthetically pleasing solution, we can add in fills on both sides to create a Dutch gable style.

Customization

A skillion carport is a great way to protect your vehicle, but it can also be used for a wide range of purposes. It’s a simple structure that can be attached to the side of your house or erected as a freestanding unit. This makes it a practical and affordable addition to your home.

A Skillion Carport’s roof has a small angle, or pitch, to allow rainwater to run off the surface. This allows for a better performance than a flat roof carport. This is especially important if you are looking to capture or divert rainwater.

Fair Dinkum Builds offers a wide range of colour and material options for our Skillion kits. All of our SKillion Carports are built with quality materials. They include a 20 Year BlueScope warranty, Hi-Tensile Galvanised steel rafters and bearers and either Dura-Gal or Colorbond slats. These high-quality components ensure your SKillion Carport will stand the test of time. We can even make your new SKillion Carport “Solar Ready”. This means it will be strong enough to add solar panels and help you capture the sun’s energy.
