A metal roofing installation is ideal for those looking to upgrade their property from a tiled roof. In terms of metal roofs, the most popular material is colorbond, as it is known for its features like longevity and warranty that the company provides. 

If your hunt is for a long-term and trustworthy solution for your property, then colorbond roof replacement is something to rely upon. 

In this post, you will get some information on the incredible features of colorbond roofing and how it is better than other metals used in metal roofing installations.

SOME BENEFITS OF A COLORBOND ROOF -

  • This metal or material is diverse and can give your home a contemporary appeal that is very tough and expensive to achieve using other metals and materials. 

  • If installed to perfection and sarking and insulation is also included in the installation, the colorbond roof will be very robust in facing the elements such as rain or hail. 

  • This metal is available in an extensive range of colours, and this comes with a guarantee that you will definitely find something you want for your property. 

  • This is an ideal installation if you invest in gutters, down pipes and fascias. 

  • As compared to the tiled roof, it is said that colorbond roofing or any kind of metal roofing has very little maintenance-related requirements. 

  • Regarding metal roofing, online vendors say that colorbond roof is the most durable of them all and is highly reliable for handling the harsh weather conditions prevailing in Australia.

Some downsides are there too of the colorbond roofing, and experts say that the cost is a major detrimental factor. Moreover, the installation process should also be done precisely and to perfection because if any compromise is made in the quality of installation, the user will end up facing sound issues and frequent leakages.

Apart from colorbond, some other metals can also be used as a part of metal roofing installation. We have mentioned some top metals and their features here in this part of this article.

ALUMINIUM -

The first metal is certainly aluminium, which is known for its incredible strength and unique characteristics. It is highly resistant to rust and corrosion, and the fact that it is totally recyclable makes it an ideal metal for metal roofing installation. Moreover, it is also recyclable, lightweight, and the most abundant material in this world.

ZINC -

Zinc is also a highly regarded metal used in metal roofing installations and is incredibly popular in Australia. This metal is also known for its durable, long-lasting properties and experts say that when maintained well, metal roofs made from zinc can last up to 50 years. 

It is also a highly environmentally-friendly metal, and not to mention, it is easy to maintain and manage. One downside is that pure zinc roofing can be quite expensive, and in the absence of maintenance, it can erode really fast.

COPPER -

One more metal used too much in metal roofing installations is copper, which was earlier used in historical buildings and government offices. The benefits of copper are very similar to those available in aluminium, like it is highly durable, lightweight, recyclable and available in huge quantities. Also, it is easy to maintain, and the cost of installation is also mostly under the control of the homeowner.
