Is selecting a roof colour proving more difficult than you imagined? Choosing your COLORBOND® steel roof colour can actually be a very enjoyable process if approached in a logical manner.
COLORBOND® steel has 22 designer colours split into classic or contemporary palettes, 6 of which are new colours that have recently been developed. So, no matter if you have a modern, heritage, country, beach or traditional style home, there will be a COLORBOND® steel colour that works for you.
There are several key factors you need to consider when selecting your new roof colour. Firstly, you need to keep your surrounding environment and landscape in mind. For example, if you own a country style house located in a treed area, a suitable colour may be one of the COLORBOND® steel grey/green colours.
Something else to consider are the other external finishes such as the walling. You may have already selected some of these finishes prior to the selection of the roof colour and therefore, co-ordination is vital. The positive is that garage door manufacturers, major paint companies and fencing suppliers have many, if not all of the COLORBOND® steel colours in their ranges. This makes matching so much easier when selecting colours.
To help with co-ordination, it’s a good idea to have a checklist with all the major components of the house listed. These may include the following.
In addition to this checklist, creating your own ‘colour and finishes’ board by collecting samples of all of your materials and finishes will help you to determine the final colour scheme.
