I was looking forward to hearing the rain - but it seems the same as tiles to me, must be the insulation, although we didn't ask for any extra insulation, it's just the standard offered by the builder. I also love the Colourbond...our nieghbours have like orangey colour tiles with white/orange bricks...it just looks so dated and I'm sure the house isn't more than 5-7 years old (since that's how old the estate is!) Agree SB. Some tiles can look dated. But most don't. I just like being the one with a different roof ... But - the rain is a good one. It almost got me to make it CB - so I'm glad it wouldn't have made any difference. 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 10209 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 2880 You should pressure clean your roof first and make sure the paint you buy also is anti mould. 4 18565 |
