We have it on ours, and at the moment with no insulation, all the windows shut (it's at lock up) and the hot weather when we went inside to have a look it wasn't that hot at all. It was a bit warm but comfortable. So it's really good in the summer. Re: Colourbond - Help us choose our roof colour!!!! 22Jan 17, 2010 10:38 am Dune get's my vote.

The paperbark looks so yellow against your brick, and the dune makes the brick look very pink IMHO... The surfmist also gives the heat reflective benefit, so should help reduce heating bills significantly in summer. Re: Colourbond - Help us choose our roof colour!!!! 26Jan 18, 2010 1:32 pm Hi!!! Thanks so much to everyone for your comments and suggestions! We didn't realise choosing outside colours would be this hard!!! We have chosen the following: Brick - PGH Moondust Mortar colour - Off White raked Quoining - Crevole brick (in my first picture attached, the Crevole brick was the small sheet of bricks down the bottom - it is a white brick) Roof colour - Surfmist Garage Door - Surfmist Gutter - Dune Fascia - Dune Downpipe - Dune Once DH can scan a copy of our elevation plan, I will attach it. There is alot of detail in our front facade so we are trying to make it not look too "busy" so I hope we have got it right!! Hopefully it all turns out. I'm soooo worried we have chosen something wrong. Feedback on our choices is much appreciated. Thanks so much!!!! Re: Colourbond - Help us choose our roof colour!!!! 27Jan 18, 2010 7:35 pm We have Surfmist roof with Dune fascia and gutters. I just luv it. Oh and we are also having Surfmist garage door. I think you will be pleased with your choices.

Oh and we are also having Surfmist garage door. I think you will be pleased with your choices. Thanks Jose 27!!! That colour combintion is seemingly popular. We wanted the gutters and fascia to blend in with the brick and not be too prominent, hopefully it turns out!! I can't seem to visualise it though Cheers. The painted render is a bit chalky to the touch. To prepare the surface for best adhesion, what would you recommend? Also, given that there must be some… 6 8509 Yes i guess this is one of the main reason as i checked one post foundation 4 9996 Thank you so much. We ended going with the terrain that’s part of our brick. 2 2539 |
