Roofs are the first line of defence that every home has against the ravages of the elements, so it just makes perfect sense that roofing material should be made as tough and long-lasting as possible. Since time immemorial, different sorts of materials have been used for roofing, the majority of which focused mainly on the aspect of durability, while later serviceability and low-maintenance where other areas improved upon, still, only very few materials manage to combine the best of aesthetics and function simultaneously.
Thankfully, modern roofing, such as galvanised aluminium or steel roofing sheets, have made the search for a durable, serviceable, low-maintenance, and aesthetically pleasing material possible. Also, metal roofing is more affordable than other roofing options, such as cement and ceramic roof tiles, and much easier to install. If you’re looking for a great alternative to expensive roofing material, but don’t want to skimp on the integral aspect of beautifying your home, while still managing to guarantee that your roof will last for decades to come, then COLORBOND® roofing offers the perfect solution!
The Advantages of COLORBOND® Roofing
Unlike earlier types of roofing solutions – such as G. I. (galvanised iron) sheeting, or aluminium sheet roofing, required applying roof paint to match whatever aesthetic was desired, but paint colours eventually wore out and faded after some time. Not COLORBOND® roofing solutions, these provide readily and easily installable roofing sheets that have been pre-painted with a polymer that actually bonds to the material itself, so that colours do not fade.
COLORBOND® roofing has three distinct benefits – the first being that the bonded colour actually improves and increases the lifespan and weather-proofing capabilities of the roofing sheet. Secondly, this additional coating enhances the overall durability of metal sheets, further adding a layer of protection against the aggressive and unrelenting ravages of the elements. Lastly, it not only adds to the overall aesthetics of the home, but is likewise designed to be impervious to fading, cracking, or chipping – an altogether too common problem for most typical painted-on roofs.
Considering these advantages, it is no wonder why many property owners are now choosing to install COLORBOND® roofing on their homes, and, it is ideal for people who want to save money without skimping on quality. So, if you’re considering reroofing your home, choose COLORBOND® roofing from Johnson Roofing – Auckland roofing professionals.
