Description
Outdoor living has become an essential part of modern design in New Zealand and the Pacific. Whether it’s for relaxing at home, entertaining guests, or upgrading commercial spaces, a roof system can transform any outdoor area into a year-round retreat. While fully custom-built systems remain an option, kitset roof systems are quickly becoming the smarter, more practical choice for homeowners, builders, and architects.
Cost-Effective and Reliable
One of the key advantages of kitset roof systems is affordability. By providing pre-engineered, modular components, kitsets cut down on the costs of custom design and fabrication. This makes them an excellent option for:
Homeowners looking for stylish outdoor cover on a budget.
Developers and builders working across multiple sites.
Commercial operators who need large-scale weather protection at competitive pricing.
You get the quality and durability of a premium roof system, without the price tag of a custom build.
Fast and Simple Installation
Kitset roof systems are designed to be easy to assemble, saving time on site and reducing labour costs.
Pre-cut and pre-finished components arrive ready to install.
Smaller kitsets can be managed by DIY enthusiasts.
Builders benefit from faster project turnarounds.
This efficiency makes kitset systems ideal not only for home upgrades but also for commercial projects where deadlines matter.
Engineered for New Zealand Conditions
Apollo NZ kitset roof systems are built to handle the demands of New Zealand’s diverse climate:

Strong and Stable – engineered to withstand high winds and heavy rainfall.

Flexible and Customisable

Multiple Sizes – to suit anything from small patios to large entertaining areas.
Style Options – from sleek louvre roofs to solid panels and retractable covers.
