Tips for finding the ideal COLORBOND roof sheeting solution
Discover how to choose the perfect COLORBOND roof sheeting solution for your home.
Revamp your roof with COLORBOND roofing sheets
Are you getting tired of your home’s old roof? Then it might be time for a roof upgrade! One of the best ways to revamp your roof is to install new roof sheeting, COLORBOND roof sheeting to be exact.
Roof sheeting by COLORBOND is the ideal roofing solution for Aussie homes since they’re built to withstand harsh Australian weather. That’s not all—these roofing sheets also come in a wide selection of colours which is a COLORBOND trademark!
But your home is unique, so you’ll want COLORBOND roofing that perfectly suits your needs and your home’s design.
What to consider when choosing your COLORBOND roof sheeting
Here are a few things that you should consider when picking out the ideal roof sheeting for your Aussie home:
Environment and climate
Local weather conditions and your surroundings can significantly affect the longevity and function of your roof sheeting. With this in mind, you need to consider aspects such as heat, UV exposure and the possibility of objects falling onto your roof.
Roof structure and design
The shape, slope and supporting structure of your home’s roof will play a major role in determining the type and thickness of COLORBOND sheeting. These two important factors will contribute greatly to the durability and lifespan of your home’s new roof.
Aesthetic preferences
As the name suggests, COLORBOND roofs come in a wide selection of great colours. When choosing your roof, you should pick a colour that matches the colour scheme of your home. Also, consider choosing a colour that matches your home’s natural surroundings.
Budget considerations
The more COLORBOND roofing you’re going to install on your home, the more money you will have to spend. If you live in a large home, you may need more sheets and this will result in a high overall installation cost. So make sure your budget fits your needs.
How to choose the right roofing profile
Another thing you must consider when choosing your ideal COLORBOND roofing is the roof profile, which is important in terms of aesthetics and performance so here’s what you need to consider:
Corrugated: The classic corrugated profile can be seen as a traditional look and can fit into different roof styles, from modern to rustic designs.
Trimdek: The Trimdek with its clean, modern lines and ability to redirect water is a widely used choice for both residential and commercial projects.
Spandek: The profile has well-defined, deep trapezoidal ribs that are very strong and distinctive. A common site on Australian homes.
Multiclad: A low-edge rib that boasts a stylish low profile. This roofing profile is most suitable for smaller Australian homes.

Frequently asked questions
Can I install COLORBOND roofing over my existing roof?
You can do this if the underlying structure is in good condition and meets the requirements for installing COLORBOND roofing. However, it’s always a good idea to talk to a professional before doing this.
Is COLORBOND roofing energy efficient?
Yes, they are. These roofing sheets can insulate your home during the warm and cold seasons of the year. This way you won’t need to rely too much on air conditioning and heaters—this will help you save a considerable amount of energy in the long run.
Can I reuse my COLORBOND roofing for another building?
This can be done. However, you must keep in mind that reusing the roofing sheets could weaken the structural integrity of your COLORBOND roof sheets since you might need to cut and make other modifications to them so that they fit the new building.
