Houses with surfmist colorbond roof. This house has a colorbond dune roof gutter facia and garage. You can see how you can tell which colour the roof is from the flashing rather than the actual ribbed metal roofing. Like a lot of people have already written it has significant thermal advantages over the darker colorbond colours. The house above has a colorbond surfmist roof gutter and facia windows garage door and the posts and rafters painted to match.
There is also colorbond walling in shale grey with a monument garage. This home richardhenry features colorbond steel on external cladding fascia and gutters in monument and the roof is colorbond ultra steel in surfmist. The roof colour for this period home is colorbond steel basalt matt a colour that lends itself to being used in highly contrasted combinations in this instance with chalky white coloured walls deep charcoal coloured details and marble. The colorbond steel lysaght spandeck profile was selected for the cladding due to the strong wind rating in light of this home being just south of a cyclonic zone and also due to the beautiful shadowing effect over the surface of the building.
Whilst our neigbours with darker roofs had their aircon running when the temps got over 30c we could easily survive with just ceiling fans. Our first build had a surfmist roof and our new build is also going to have a surfmist roof. Darren bless him knew my heart was set on this so we went with surfmist for the colorbond roof and standing seam. Profiles used were fielders kingklip 700 roofing and fielders finesse nailstrip walling.
