Browse Forums Building A New House 1 Feb 18, 2009 6:32 pm Hi,
We are in the middle of selecting some colours to match the Austral Newport brick. Has anyone built with this brick, and what colours did you choose for the roof/gutters/facia etc? Would love to see some photos, or some suggestions please Thanks in advance, Leesy Re: Help!! Austral Newport bricks need colorbond roof to match!! 2Feb 18, 2009 6:41 pm Charcoal or black will definitely go, but this brick is one fo the few that go with red and orange roofs.
So if you want the obvious, go for charcoal roof, Monument guttering and fascia, paperbark windows and garage. If you want something a little different to what everyone else is doing at the moment, red roof, monument guttering, black windows, and maybe paperbark fascia and guttering, wooden or paperbark garage door. Or for soemthing really different, those light caramel roof tiles, paperbark guttering and fascia, white windows and wooden garage door. There's 3 quick suggestions. I have obviously thought waaaay too much about these bricks. Just about anything will go with those bricks. They're great! I leave you to fend for yourself, figure things out yourself.

That gives us a few different options. I didnt think about the red colours... will look into it. I had already thought of the paperbark for windows etc so Im glad you said that!! Thanks again Re: Help!!

In my opinion you dont need to replace or paint the roof other than treat surface rust… 1 10206 You should pressure clean your roof first and make sure the paint you buy also is anti mould. 4 18563 Hi all, Our boundary perimeter fences need replacing (3 sides). From everyone's experience, what would you install? Timber lapped and capped OR colorbond? Thank you. 0 2875 |
