The dwelling has a Woodlands grey colorbond roof and Magnolia coloured aluminium framed windows (Dowell windows). We were originally thinking of using Cedar wood cladding to replace the old discontinued textured fibre cement boards, but would like to explore the option of using colorbond sheet metal cladding due to bushfire safety. Does any one have any suggestions? Would consider other cladding options.
