When you’re looking at a new roof, you’ll want to make sure that you’re getting the right color. This article will discuss the different color options that you can choose from, and explain how they will affect your home’s overall appearance.

COLORBOND(r) steel’s traditional colour range

COLORBOND(r) steel’s traditional colour range for shale grey roof is a tad light on the colours and finishes you’ll need to bring your home’s look to life. That said, you can count on a wide variety of premium matt and gloss finishes that will make your home feel like a home.

For instance, COLORBOND(r)’s Classic finish is a good choice for your budget. Not only will it last longer, but it will also give your home a low-sheen aesthetic.

Another COLORBOND(r) contender is the XRW line of high-performance steel. As the name suggests, the XRW line is an upgrade to the standard steel, featuring enhanced corrosion resistance and a wider colour selection. COLORBOND(r)’s newest product line is built to withstand the elements, no matter what you throw at it. You’ll find a wide array of colours to choose from, ranging from a pale pastel to a rich, deep red. The XRW line is built for longevity, and includes the same quality steel and technology you’ve come to expect from Colorbond, including the aforementioned em-mi-mo-mo-m.

When it comes to choosing a COLORBOND(r) steel roof for your new or existing home, you should also consider the type of flora and fauna that surround you. While you’re at it, pick a colour that will work with your architecture as well.
