It’s important to remember that when it comes to roofing materials, every kind is different and comes with a unique set of pros and cons. Here are some of the materials that we specialise in at Bespoke:
ZINC ROOFING & CLADDING
Not only is zinc a highly attractive material to use, but it also requires little maintenance and is resistant to corrosion and rust. Being lightweight, it doesn’t put too much pressure on a building’s structure. It is also very flexible and can be modelled into many different shapes without affecting its durability.
Plus, Zinc is also valued for its longevity. In the right environment, it can last up to 100 years. But if used near the coast, it will still last 60 to 80 years. Zinc isn’t damaged by the harmful effects of UV rays and even has self-healing properties. If it is scratched or dented, it can repair itself with time. Zinc roofing and zinc cladding are often favoured by architects over many other metals because of their wide application and large range of benefits.
Colorbond roofing & cladding
As its name suggests, Colorbond’s colour is bonded to its metal. Because it comes in a wide range of colours, Colorbond roofing and cladding can be mixed and matched with the colours of other structures, such as gutters, fascias and downpipes, to enhance a building’s appearance.
Colorbond is tried and tested in Australia’s harsh conditions to ensure its longevity. It is easy to maintain and is resistant to termites, corrosion and fires. In fact, it is often used for roofing and cladding in bushfire prone areas. In addition, its range of thermally-efficient light colours can also help to keep a property cooler on hot days. Did you know that Colorbond steel metal cladding contains recycled content – and it’s 100% recyclable?
Copper & Roofing Cladding
As an architectural metal, copper is corrosion-resistant and durable in most environments. It is also soft, malleable and requires little maintenance. Being lightweight, it can reduce the costs of supporting structures and other materials.
A copper roof is less likely to be damaged by rainfall and hail than other types of roofing types and is one of the most fireproof materials. It also provides lightning protection and is also virtually 100% recyclable.
Copper sheet cladding has been used for roofing projects for centuries. In ancient Egypt, for example, the doors to the temple of Amen-Re at Karnak were clad with copper. Copper’s popularity has endured throughout the ages. Some of the world’s most celebrated modern architects prefer to use copper instead of other materials because of its unique look. It’s a material that only gets more attractive with age, gaining a “patina”, which naturally changes colours from browns to blues and then greens.
Aluminium Roofing & Cladding
Aluminium is also extremely versatile, easy to work with on-site and requires little or no maintenance. Plus, it can help reduce the heat absorbency of a building.
It can also be recycled many times, which is yet another reason why it’s a popular choice for roofing and cladding around the Central Coast.
