Colorbond roof: 7 benefits
1. Energy efficient & helps to maintain indoor temperature
The special Thermatech coating on Colorbond roofs reflects more of the sun’s heat, reducing the need for air conditioning and lowering energy costs. Colorbond’s thermally efficient design helps to keep your home cooler in summer and warmer in winter.
2. Fire resistant
If you reside in regions susceptible to bushfires, it’s highly advisable to opt for Colourbond roofing instead of tiles. This non-flammable material offers greater ease in sealing corrugated metal sheets to protect against airborne embers and burning ash.
3. Environmentally friendly
Metal roofing is 100% recyclable, plus its transportation efficiency and low on-site waste mean you’re choosing a great material for your home and the planet.
4. Resilience & low maintenance
Queensland is currently experiencing cyclone season, bringing harsh weather conditions to the state. In light of this, the significance of resilient building materials like Colorbond roofing is more important than ever.
Colorbond stands out as one of the most robust and cutting-edge building materials available today, having undergone rigorous testing for over 50 years in Australia’s most challenging environments.
Don’t believe us? Metal roofs can outlast traditional asphalt shingles by up to 30 years or more, provided they are well-maintained, as opposed to the 20-year lifespan of asphalt shingles.
5. Design flexibility
Colorbond roofs offer superior spanning capabilities, enabling more open floor space without additional columns.
The wide array of colours in the Colorbond range provides building designers and owners with greater freedom to craft distinctive facades. Its bonded colour eliminates the frequent need for painting, meaning less maintenance for homeowners.
Additionally, Colorbond is available in various profiles to complement any home’s aesthetic and design needs – some including Custom Orb, Trimdek, Klip-lok and Spandek.
6. Water collection
If you rely on rainwater tanks, opting for Colorbond steel roofing can significantly increase your water collection. Thanks to its sealed paint finish, Colorbond has a low absorbency that’s more effective than concrete tiles for natural water collection.
7. Can add value to your home
Colorbond roofs can add significant value to your home. Not only do they provide an attractive and modern aesthetic, but they also offer a durable and long-lasting roofing solution.
Prospective buyers are often willing to pay a premium for homes with Colorbond roofs as they see the added value in terms of aesthetics, functionality, and long-term savings on maintenance expenses.
