Trying to decide on our front render/roof color combination and the surfmist is one we're looking at. Thanks : Here's our idea for exterior colors Wallaby for Garage Door Surfmist for Roof Silverado for front render Re: Anyone used Colorbond Surfmist for roof choice? 2Apr 29, 2014 8:48 pm I have used surfmist roofs on two buildings. I chose this colour because it has the best thermal performance of all metal roofing. The house I am presently building has surfmist roof, with contrasting Colorbond Ironstone window & door frames, fascias, gutters & barge boards. The weatherboard walls are painted a light mauve colour. The mauve colour is only noticeable at close quarters. From a distance the mauve appears off-white. The front door is painted a bright rhubarb which makes a nice contrast and focuses your attention on the front door (and draws you to the front door). I don't know how to attach photos Re: Anyone used Colorbond Surfmist for roof choice? 3Apr 29, 2014 11:52 pm Give me a month or two, and I can show you pictures of what my surfmist roof will look like. I'm going all surfmist for the gutters and fascia too, and the bricks will be Boral Winter Gold double height. Owner Building at Jimboomba Woods in Logan City Qld.

Re: Anyone used Colorbond Surfmist for roof choice? 7Apr 30, 2014 10:32 am Oh, and I forgot to mention there's a new white colour from the Colourbond Coolmax range, which I think is called whitehaven ... to me it looks something like the old Colourbond Thredbo White.

Re: Anyone used Colorbond Surfmist for roof choice? 8Apr 30, 2014 5:06 pm I like the color with your houses they look really nice. I would have liked to have a feature render like yours xxkatxx but sticking to a budget so we're offsetting the front render with the darker colored garage hopefully this works well. We get our prestart pack in the next couple of days Re: Anyone used Colorbond Surfmist for roof choice? 9Jun 17, 2018 6:07 pm Hi newbuild14 - what did you go with? Any photos! Love your colour scheme that you had - did you go with it? Thank you so much. We ended going with the terrain that’s part of our brick. 2 2503 Your house roof does not show rusting other than some surface rust on the flashings. In my opinion you dont need to replace or paint the roof other than treat surface rust… 1 10187 You should pressure clean your roof first and make sure the paint you buy also is anti mould. 4 17657 |
