Create A Permanent Outdoor Living Space You’ll Enjoy For Years To Come

Want to enjoy your deck, patio or outdoor entertaining area no matter what the weather is doing?

A custom roof structure is one of the best ways to create a comfortable, sheltered outdoor space that becomes a natural extension of your home or business.

At Stretch Canvas, we design and install premium roof structures, pergola roofing systems and covered outdoor areas throughout the Kāpiti Coast. Whether you’re looking to cover an existing deck, create an outdoor room or add a stylish architectural feature to your property, we’ll help you find the right solution.

Using quality aluminium and stainless steel components combined with either a polycarbonate clear panel or translucent PVC membrane, we create attractive, durable outdoor spaces designed to handle the New Zealand conditions and provide year – round enjoyment.

What Is A Roof Structure?

A roof structure is a permanent outdoor roofing solution designed to provide protection from the elements while enhancing your outdoor living space.

Unlike shade-only products, roof structures provide reliable shelter from both sun and rain, allowing you to enjoy your outdoor area far more often throughout the year.

They are ideal for:

  • Covered decks
  • Outdoor entertaining areas
  • Patios
  • Courtyards
  • Outdoor dining spaces
  • Poolside areas
  • Commercial outdoor seating
  • School and community spaces

A professionally designed roof structure can transform an underused outdoor area into one of the most valuable and enjoyable spaces on your property.

SkyGlaze

The SkyGlaze clear roof system transforms patios, decks and outdoor entertaining areas into bright, weather-protected spaces that can be enjoyed throughout the year. Its crystal-clear roof allows sunlight to flood your outdoor room while providing reliable protection from rain and harmful UV, creating a space that feels open, warm and connected to the outdoors.

Whether you’re entertaining friends, enjoying a family barbecue or simply relaxing with a coffee, SkyGlaze lets you enjoy every season in comfort—without the dark, enclosed feeling of a conventional patio roof.

Beautifully engineered with premium aluminium framing and high-performance clear roofing panels, every installation is custom designed to complement your home and built to perform in New Zealand’s demanding conditions.

Create An Outdoor Room Without Extending Your Home

Many homeowners want more living space but don’t want the cost, disruption or complexity of a major renovation.

A roof structure offers a smart alternative.

By covering your outdoor area and combining it with outdoor blinds, screens or other weather protection systems, you can create an outdoor room that feels like an extension of your home.

Imagine enjoying:

  • Family dinners outdoors
  • Year-round entertaining
  • Shelter from unexpected rain
  • Protection from harsh summer sun
  • Better indoor-outdoor flow
  • More usable living space

It’s one of the most cost-effective ways to add functionality and value to your property.

Stretchgola Roofing Systems

The Stretchgola is a New Zealand custom-made product that provides shade and wet weather protection and can be designed to fit your outdoor space.

Great for patios, decks and entrance ways, the framing is available in any Dulux colour to match your home, with a PVC shade covering available in three shade levels. We provide concept drawings of how the structure will look on your property and the protection it will provide.

The framing is manufactured from powder coated aluminium extrusion and fittings are marine grade stainless steel. The PVC membrane is a transparent material available in three translucencies which allow different levels of natural light. The PVC material blocks out 99% UV, is fire rated and comes with 10-year UV warranty. We offer a 5-year warranty on our workmanship with the Stretchgola.
