What can affect the cost of COLORBOND roof sheets?
Discover which factors can affect the final price of your COLORBOND roofing sheets.
A beloved roofing solution
Today, many Australian homes and businesses have COLORBOND roofing, which is known for its durability, weatherproof capabilities and selection of beautiful colours, making it a great choice for all kinds of residential and commercial buildings.
That’s why if you’re planning on installing a new roof for your property, you should definitely consider COLORBOND roof sheets. However, before making this all-important decision, it’s a good idea to analyse the cost of COLORBOND roof sheets. Several factors can potentially affect the roofing cost so it’s important to have a good understanding of them to know if the roofing fits your budget.
What factors will affect the cost of COLORBOND roof sheets?
Type of roofing sheets
There are several kinds of COLORBOND roofing sheets available, such as corrugated, TRIMCLAD, and Mini rib roofing sheets. The price of these roofing sheets can vary between $17.40-$28.70, depending on the type of roofing sheet you choose for your home or business. These roofing sheets are designed for different kinds of structures, such as patios and gazebos, homes, and office buildings.
Location and accessibility
The location of your home or business may also affect the final price of your roofing, this is usually due to transportation costs. When you order COLORBOND roofing sheets, if your home or business is in a far-off location, the delivery charges can be high. Also, if you plan on calling a professional to install your roof for you, they will likely charge extra if your location isn’t very accessible.
Complexity and size
The resources you’re going to need will depend on the area of the roof in your home or office building. Bigger and more complex roof structures will require more materials and labour, leading to a higher cost of COLORBOND roofing sheets. Depending on where you get your roofing sheets, however, you may be able to get a discount during special seasonal offers or when you buy a big quantity of sheets.
Existing roof’s integrity
If your home or office is an older building, there’s a chance that the roof structure may have seen better days. Before installing roofing sheets, you’ll need to work on revamping your roof structure so that it can support the new sheets. The cost of repairing your roof structure before installing the COLORBOND roof sheets will add to the final cost. This will include labour costs and material costs.
Roof height and pitch
The pitch and height of your roof can indirectly affect the total cost of COLORBOND roof sheets. Roofs that are very high and have a steeper pitch are more difficult to work on—these types of roofs will require a professional’s help. Due to the difficulty, roof installers may charge a high price for installation. In cases like this, installation may even need specialised equipment like lifts.
Colour selection
COLORBOND offers many different beautiful colour finishes for roofs, from warm neutral tones to stunning cool tones. These colours can suit all kinds of architectural styles and locations. While the prices of base colours are usually the same, some premium finishes can be more expensive. In this case, the colour you choose can affect the final cost of COLORBOND roof sheets for your home or office.
