Why COLORBOND® colours matter for Melbourne roofing
Melbourne’s weather can swing from blazing sunshine to heavy rain and gusty winds, so choosing a genuine COLORBOND® steel roof with the right colour finish gives you long-lasting durability and minimal maintenance, while maximising visual impact. Lighter shades such as Surfmist® and Shale Grey™ can help keep homes cooler and blend effortlessly with modern designs, while deeper hues like Monument®, Basalt® and Woodland Grey® offer a bold, contemporary style and hide wear or stains.
Local Melbourne roofing trends often favour modern neutrals for new roof installations, roof replacements, fascia and gutter upgrades. Our team at D Steel Roofing can help you choose a Colourbond colour that matches your home’s design, landscaping, and the surrounding suburb’s character.
Tips for picking your COLORBOND® colour
- Choose a COLORBOND® shade that matches your home’s style and suburb, heritage colours for period homes in Melbourne, Keilor or Essendon, or contemporary tones like Basalt® or Monument® for a modern look.
- Opt for lighter colours such as Surfmist® or Shale Grey™ to reduce summer heat and lower cooling costs, ideal for homes in Sunshine or Pascoe Vale.
- Always check with your local council and neighbours to ensure your chosen roof colour meets area guidelines and is approved before installation.
- Match your roof colour with fascia and gutters for a cohesive appearance, particularly when upgrading gutters or roof plumbing with D Steel Roofing.
