Metal Roof Replacement
You’d think a metal roof replacement in Adelaide can be a costly affair, but it’s a more cost-effective solution than repeated metal roof repairs, rising energy bills, and risking a roof that may cave in.
Roof Replacement Adelaide has the expertise and experience in Adelaide roofing that you can count on if you decide that it’s time to get a new roof.
You don’t need to dwell on leaks, noise, and rust. Our team specialises in quality roofing replacements that will upgrade your home’s comfort and security amid the South Australian weather.
Roofing Experts at Your Service
We offer a wide range of roofing solutions specifically tailored to Adelaide homes.
A well-installed metal roof is a survivor even under the region’s intense UV rays and strong storms. We offer roof restoration, re-roofing, roof painting, and repair services to give your home a touch-up.
However, if your roof is at the end of its lifespan, a total roof replacement becomes a more economical solution in the long run.
Our roofing company can place a new roof over your home and give you peace of mind for the decades to come.
Unsure whether your roof needs a complete redo? Here are signs to look out for:
- Visible rust that covers large areas of your roof
- Multiple roof leaks that keep returning despite repairs
- Roof sheets that have lifted or separated at the seams
- Battens that have rotted or deteriorated
- Your roof is over 30 years old
- Significant hail damage with dents and punctures
- Faded colour that no longer protects against UV rays
- Ongoing issues with condensation inside your home
If you’re ticking off several items on this list, it might be time to consider metal roof replacement in Adelaide.
Reap The Benefits of Metal Roofing for Your Home
Unlike old metal roofs, modern options have gone a long way in improving the quality of life of homeowners.
Whether you’re getting a new roof or making the switch from terracotta or concrete roof tiles, here are reasons why our expertly installed metal roofs are definitely an upgrade.
Durability and Longevity
Metal roofing stands the test of time in Adelaide’s challenging climate. A quality metal roof can last 40-70 years with minimal maintenance.
Your durable metal roof will likely be the last roof you’ll ever need to install.
Weather Resistance
The weather in South Australia can be unpredictable and harsh. Your new roof can handle:
- Extreme heat and UV exposure
- Heavy rain and storm conditions
- High winds up to 140km/h
- Fire resistance
- Hail resistance with modern impact-resistant coatings
Energy Efficient
Metal roofs reflect solar radiant heat rather than absorbing it. This can reduce your cooling costs during hot summers in the region. With the proper insulation we always recommend, the energy savings are even greater.
Versatile Design Options
Gone are the days when metal roofing meant one look. Today’s metal roofing comes in countless colours, profiles, finishes, and even styles that mimic other materials. You’re spoilt for choice.
Lightweight
Metal roofing weighs significantly less than tile roof options. This means less structural stress on your home, likely extending the life of your walls and foundations.
Low Maintenance
Metal roofing requires minimal upkeep. It doesn’t need regular resealing, doesn’t grow moss, and won’t crack, warp, or curl like other materials.
Simple periodic cleaning is usually all that’s required to keep your roof in tip-top shape.
Noise Reduction
Unlike metal roofs from older generations, modern solutions have now made their successors quieter during the rain. With the right metal roofing products, raindrops turn into gentle ambient sound rather than disruptive noise.
The Best Metal Roof Solutions Your Home Deserves
Colorbond Roofing
The most popular choice for Adelaide homes, Colorbond steel is a type of roofing material engineered to withstand South Australia’s natural challenges.
It offers superior corrosion resistance against salt air on the coast, thermal insulation against extreme temperatures, and fire-resistance in bushfire-prone areas.
With a wide selection of colours to match your home style, Colorbond can keep your roof looking fresh and standing strong for more than 50 years.
Zincalume Steel
The Zincalume steel roof is a more affordable choice than Colorbond, but it still offers excellent durability. It has a distinctive metallic charm that some homeowners prefer, while its great corrosion resistance gives it a lifespan of 40 to 50 years.
Custom Metals
We will always communicate the best choices every step of the way, but we know you may have specific plans for your residential and commercial properties.
Our team always listens to customers and tailors our roofing services to your choices. You can always talk to us if you want to stick with other roofing options, such as copper, aluminium, or heritage galvanised steel.
