Our Tips on Choosing wall cladding and roof Colours

Roof Design

Change it Up!

Roof Design

 When choosing your roof colour, the design of the roof itself plays a big role. Flashy, angular roofs with lots of faces might feel a little extra in bold shades, so a more neutral tone might be the way to go.

What’s your vibe?

  • Sleek and Moody: Think dark, dramatic tones that bring a modern edge.
  • Bold and Ultra-Modern: Vibrant colours that turn heads (for all the right reasons).
  • Light and Coastal: Soft, breezy tones perfect for beachy, laid-back homes.


Still scratching your head? Check out the COLORBOND® website and in particular, their Design Visualiser Tool.

Or you can flick through our gallery for some serious roof-spiration! 

Climate

 Our warm Queensland sun has a way of turning up the heat—especially during those sizzling summer months! Did you know the colour of your roof can help keep things cool inside?

Lighter shades reflect more heat, keeping your home cooler and potentially saving you on energy bills. Plus, who doesn’t love an excuse to go with something light, bright, and energy-smart?

 Let’s be real—your dream roof colour today might not be your dream roof colour in 20 years. The good news? COLORBOND® Steel is so durable that it can be re-painted down the line!


So, whether you’re switching up your style or keeping up with trends, it’s nice to know you’ve got options for a fresh new look—no matter how far down the track.

COLORBOND® STEEL

COLORBOND® Classic Finish is the most popular product of the roof colours. It provides a low-sheen aesthetic that is designed for our harsh Australian weather.

COLORBOND® MATT

COLORBOND® Matt Finish has a softer appearance while still maintaining the same level of durability offered through the classic range of roof colours.

COLORBOND® ULTRA

COLORBOND® Ultra Steel is typically reserved for buildings in marine and industrial environments. These roof colours offer extra protection and durability, particularly for coastal properties.
