Colorbond Roofing

Why choose Colorbond steel?

COLORBOND® steel is pre-painted steel roofing made in Australia by BlueScope and designed for Australian conditions. It is popular for re-roofs and new homes because it is:

• Lightweight, putting much less load on the roof frame than tiles
• Low maintenance, with no ridge pointing or broken tiles to repair
• Available in a wide range of colours to suit your home
• Suitable for low-pitch roofs where tiles cannot be used
• Easy to pair with matching gutters, fascia and flashings

Choosing a colour

Colour affects both how your home looks and how much heat the roof absorbs. Lighter colours reflect more of the sun's heat, while darker colours absorb more. It's worth checking with your council or estate rules too, as some areas have guidelines on roof colours.

Coastal homes

Salt air speeds up corrosion on metal roofs. For homes close to the ocean or bays, there are steel grades and fasteners made for coastal exposure. Tell us where your property is and we will include suitable materials in your quote.

Zincalume

ZINCALUME® steel is the unpainted, metallic-finish alternative. It suits sheds, commercial buildings and homes where a classic silver roof is wanted.
