  • What are the disadvantages of a louvered pergola roof?

    A common disadvantage reported, which is possibly obvious, but not to everyone, is that a bladed aluminium louvre roof protects from the rainfall only when the blades are totally closed up. With the blades closed you will block out most natural light and it can be very dark underneath such a system, even in the daytime. A better alternative is a glass veranda roof, which not only protects with 100% waterproof guarantee, you also get all the natural light all the time. Fitted with a retractable fabric blind and you have sun and rain control sorted.
