Types of metal roofing
Metal roofing is one of the more popular choices that our customers make in Melbourne for roofing on their residential homes, on commercial buildings and especially coastal and agricultural buildings. Its well known for its durability and resistance to intense heat and colder climates.
Here is a look at some of the more common types of metal used on roofs:
- Colorbond Steel: A popular choice in Australia, Colorbond is a steel roofing material known for its durability and wide range of colours. It's resistant to corrosion, peeling, and cracking, making it suitable for Melbourne's varying weather conditions
- Zincalume Steel: Similar to Colorbond but without the colour finish, Zincalume is a blend of aluminium, zinc, and silicon. It's highly durable and corrosion-resistant, ideal for Melbourne's coastal areas
- Copper Roofing: Copper offers a unique aesthetic that ages to a distinctive green patina. It's extremely durable, corrosion-resistant, and low maintenance, making it a premium choice
- Aluminum Roofing: Lightweight and corrosion-resistant, aluminium roofing suits coastal areas. It's also energy-efficient, reflecting heat away from the building
- Galvanized Steel: This type involves steel coated with zinc for added corrosion resistance. It's a cost-effective option for metal roofing suitable for Melbourne's variable climate
- Stainless Steel: Known for its sleek look and exceptional durability, stainless steel roofing is resistant to corrosion and staining. It’s more expensive but offers longevity and a modern appearance
