Colorbond roofing is designed to be highly resistant to corrosive elements, such as rust. However, if your Colorbond roof is not cleaned regularly or damaged areas are left to be exposed to moisture such as soil build-up or rainwater pooling, this may lead to rust over time. In saying, simply taking care of your roof and inspecting it regularly for any damage – big scratches exposing the metal underneath or large dints – will help to keep on top of this.

Any roof you get will run the risk of developing leaks, though Colorbond roofing is one of the most durable materials on the market and it is likely that any leak that might develop is due to damage to the roof and can be easily fixed by having the sheet replaced. If you are worried your metal roof is leaking, contact your local roofing specialist to understand what might be happening and what you should do next.

Colorbond roofing comes with reflective coatings that help to reduce the amount of heat absorbed by the metal sheets. Unlike other metal roofing products, a Colorbond roof can actually assist in increasing your home’s thermal efficiency and make your home more energy-efficient.
