Colour Bond Roofing

A proper Colourbond job is more than just sheets. We typically include removal (if required), inspection of battens and roof structure, installation of sarking/insulation upgrades (optional), new sheets, flashings, ridge capping, valleys (if applicable), and weatherproof sealing. We also check drainage, penetrations (vents/skylights), and finish with a full cleanup so the roof performs well and looks neat.

It depends on the look you want, the roof pitch, and the building style. Corrugated is a classic profile that suits many homes and handles Australian conditions well. Trimdek/Custom Orb can provide a cleaner modern look with strong spans. During inspection, we recommend the profile that matches your home’s style, water flow needs, and long-term performance.

In most cases, it’s strongly recommended. Sarking provides an added moisture and dust barrier and helps reduce radiant heat. Insulation supports better indoor comfort and energy efficiency. We’ll assess your current setup and suggest a practical upgrade path based on budget and the condition of your existing layers.

Leaks often come from poor detailing at penetrations. We use correct flashing methods, purpose-made seals where appropriate, and ensure water is directed properly around the penetration. We also check fall direction, sheet overlap placement, and the condition of surrounding areas to reduce future issues.

Colourbond is low maintenance, but simple checks help it last longer: clear gutters regularly, remove leaves/debris from valleys, and do a visual inspection after major storms. If you’re near trees or coastal areas, an annual roof/gutter check is a smart idea to prevent build-up, corrosion risk, and overflow-related issues.
